Hmm. Nope. Sounds like a problem with custom somethings, maybe.

Maybe she should try to reinstall from scratch.   And make sure she defrags her computer first, and disables her anti-virus and firewall.

How "close" is your friend to the minimum system requirements? Just barely over?

I also second the defrag idea. I am way over the system minimums but notice a definite improvement after I've defragged my drive.
Uninstall the game. Delete all unneccesary games, files, crap from the hard drive. Defrag. Reinstall.

If necessary, a complete system restore can also work wonders on an aging hard-drive, but it's surprising how many people rarely bother to defrag.  The game definitely prefers to run on a non-fragmented drive.

I had this exact problem, and it turned out I needed a better graphics thingy-ma-bob.  I got NVIDIA and it fixed the problem.

I'm guessing that my computer already had the card (because I never bought anything) and I needed to update the version or something...I'm dumb...don't ask me.  Undecided

'Thanks everybody, I'll pass these ideas on, might defrag mine while I'm at it, see if it runs any better.
