Well, adding a video card to a laptop is not an easy or cheap process - I believe most or all are built onto the motherboard before assembly, as there aren't the expansion slots as in a desktop.
You might try cranking all the settings down, and turning off various effects. If it runs okay, then start boosting stuff a bit until it starts flaking out on you, then back off a bit.
You also might set your game resolution lower - 1024x768 or something - and see what that does. It should make for less video load and may help, too. I know on my older laptop, I have a vid card with lower memory, and I have to run at 1024x768.
Some of the other folks here may have more and better suggestions...I don't keep up with this stuff like I used to, but I do play on a laptop, so the above might work for you. -
I think the video's likely the issue:
Card name: Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family
Manufacturer: Intel Corporation
Chip type: Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family
DAC type: Internal
Device Key: Enum\PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2A42&SUBSYS_021C1025&REV_09
Display Memory: 1759 MB
Dedicated Memory: 64 MB
Shared Memory: 1695 MB
Current Mode: 1366 x 768 (32 bit) (60Hz)
With onboard video, you'll use system memory for video memory, unlike a dedicated card with it's own built in on-card memory. -
Quote:Actually it's a great idea that they wait. That way people can make alts with the new available proliferated power sets and get tailor tokens on them, too. If they granted them right away, all new alts would be out of luck for a free costume change.Originally Posted by LKN_351
ah! i did look in the wrong place.... i looked in anouncements instead of announcements disscussion...
THANK YOU VERY MUCH
still its odd they wait for the tokens... and to wait till friday when their will be more people in the game. can anyone say packed tailors? lol
There shouldn't be any real issue with waiting a couple days if you want a freebie change. If you've been here a while, you likely have several piled up anyway from the last token grants. -
You should do well with that laptop - what's the vid card in it?

I like beer that delivers itself!

I've been at a few of these on Champions, and they can be very fun! Highly recommend this to whoever can make it.
Hopefully I can get there, as well, for a ttt on this server! -
That's looking awesome! It should kick butt if it's colored.

WW fan, but I don't recall any conversations on WW Day. I'm all for it, though!

First off: reputation.
Secondly, I only give criticism if someone has asked for it, or I'm paying for the piece. I'll give praise and encouragement all day long if warranted. If not, I go with what my Mom taught me....If you can't say something nice about someone, don't say anything.
Thirdly, I wub you guys!!
Carry on carrying on....
P.S. Big Bang Theory is on tonight! -
I've seen that before somewhere...funny stuff!
-
Well done!

Yo ho ho!

Well, I'm a big Taarna fan, but I might well watch it.
