JustADummy Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 In a laptop you cannot upgrade anything. What are your system specifications (Processor, GFX, etc)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLICK-R392 Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 In a laptop you cannot upgrade anything.What are your system specifications (Processor, GFX, etc)? Spider-Vice is absolutely right if its a laptop then nothing can be done. And your RAM matters too. Whats your RAM by the way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mpilk901 Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 You can find out your specification by going to My Computer > and on the left hand side in the blur bar it should say View System Information. Click that and copy what it says here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Girish Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Your PC is bordering on minimum specifications. I hope you're running the game on the lowest possible settings. Also, you can disable sound acceleration to gain a few fps. Start > Run > Type 'dxdiag' > OK > Sound > Drag the acceleration slider to the left.

JustADummy Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Also, you gotta tell us if the Processor is a single-core, a dual-core, a quad-core or a i7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WRX22B1998 Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 In a laptop you cannot upgrade anything.What are your system specifications (Processor, GFX, etc)? not totally true, laptop you can definitely upgrade RAM, its pretty easy too. around as easy as upgrading desktop RAM i guess... you can upgrade CPU and other stuff i think, but its a lot harder to find stuff that is compatible, will fit properly, and wont cause too much heat, so therefore isnt really recommended. if its a celeron, its a single core. so yeah its understandable why its lagging. put it in 640x480x16 and low details, then see if its still bad. you can upgrade video card, but if i was you i wouldn't bother with it, your CPU is too slow to gain any sort of real benefits. if it were the other way (like, you had a high powered core2 or amd X2) and a dodgy video card, then i would recommend it but since you got what you got, i wouldnt bother.

Vinny Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 I had the same problem with an intel graphics card. If yours is an Intel I suggest you read my topic. http://www.thegtaplace.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=22842 <--I don't know how to use the insert topic thing.
