Odd message delays

I'm using my new comp and myth basically runs fine on it.

However most of the time, messages like "Game On", "1 minute remaining" and "Units Received" only appear long after the event has taken place. This applies to both the text onscreen and the audio message.

Obviously this is pretty bad when you're playing 5v5 and you get given something in the middle of the game, unless the giver tells you they gave you unit(s), you're left ignorant of the fact.

I installed Myth fresh and then patched straight to 1.6.

Using Vista Home Basic
Intel quadcore Q6600
NVidia GeForce 9600 GT

Thanks!

Sounds like you have lag. Are you (or someone sharing your internet connection) downloading things while you're playing?

nothing like that, using the same connection thats been lagless for 4-5 years

The messages don't always delay, but 90% of the time. Aside from them, the game runs absolutely fine.
