How to unlock the Delaying the Inevitable achievement in Resident Evil - Definitive Guide

This Achievement can be earned with either character but is easily missed. Once you have the Armor Key, you’ll be able to access the room where Richard is slowly dying; 2F East Wing of the Mansion. When you first enter that room you’ll be sent to go get Serum to save his life; you’ll have 6 minutes to get the Serum from the 1F West Wing Mansion Save Room and come back to him to save his life and earn this Achievement. If you take too long, you’ll find Richard’s dead body the next time you enter the room where he was. A negative outcome of failing to save Richard’s life is that you’ll be unable to earn the Assault Shotgun which is a fine weapon for either character.

Does the timer stop when you're looking at your map and/or in a menu?

@ACDS It doesn't for speed runs so my guess is no.

It’s weird I did this task, but the achievement never unlocked. Will try again on another playthrough.

When you encounter Richard you'll be tasked to fetch some serum to save him. You'll need to head all the way to the west side of the mansion to the save room and examine the medicine shelf then take it back to Richard. I'm not sure how long you get but it's best not to take any detours otherwise Richard will die. You'll also get his shotgun as a reward.

MISSABLE!

Requires Armor Key (see "Not Just Any Object" for info) and Sword Key (found in the Crypt where you will face the Crimson Elder). Head upstairs from the Main Hall and go through the first door on your right leading to a U-Corridor. Go to the next door on your right and move forwards to see Richard. He'll ask that you get some Serum, which will force you back out into the U-Corridor. The area will be marked on your map, it's on the West-Wing side of the mansion.

It's recommended to clear out any zombies above the Serum Save Room before going for the Serum, to remove risk. You have a limited time to get the Serum (6 or so minutes), which is located on a cabinet filled with vials near the Item Box. Return to Richard and a cut scene will play where he's given the medicine. If you were too late, he'll already be dead, but you'll still obtain the radio from him (just not the achievement).
