Dead Space 3 lag and extreme FPS drop

I got the game from Humble Bundle, and today when I wanted to play the game it started lagging, even in the main menu. I changed video settings to low but it keeps lagging. When game was released my friend bought it and we played it on mine pc, back then game was working perfectly, since then I only changed Windows 8 to x64 and then back to x86, so currently I'm running Windows 8 x86. So if anyone knows what is the problem here please advise.

Graphic card, chipset and audio card are all updated.

Yeah I know my CPU is not the best, but I just don't get it why did game worked before. Anyway I got it working, it seems it was a problem with origin, because I was trying to play Dead Space 3 while BF3 and Sims 3 were downloading, now that all games are installed on my PC, Dead Space works. Thanks guys 🙂

Not enough information. You haven't even included the machine's Vital Specs.

have the same issue on a brand new £1000 gaming laptop, it is only when I have no internet connection though.
