How do I reduce my UT2004 lag?

I've noticed that in Monster Evolution, that I sometimes get these odd lag issues where the game gets a little wonky. Here are some situations that happen to my computer:
1. I appear to be running away from some monsters, and I'm taking no damage, but then my computer seems to repeat itself and go back to a certain time where I originally was, repeating the cycle over and over.
2. My character freezes in a place, and when I try to press W, A, S, or D, the whole screen shakes violently, but doesn't obscure my view too much and I don't move anywhere, I even freeze in midair. The shaking doesn't happen when I stand still though. However, I can still shoot, change weapons, and use artifacts. This also occurs in Monster Mash, and Unreal Engine 2 games like Killing Floor. (this is the main problem that I want to fix, as it happens at least 3 times every match and gets incredibly annoying)
3. I accidently hit myself with something like a rocket, or shock ball, but I don't take any damage, and go on with the game, but then usually 10-30 seconds later, I die from it, giving out the death message that I "killed" myself with.
4. On Nano Technics, I frequently die from the Laptop's teleporter. (first objective)
Anyone know how I can fix these odd lag/problems in my UT2004, especially #2? I'd greatly appreciate any answers.
