It's a laptop with a laptop vid card.

This game need serious vid card HP to make a dent in that game.

When I turn off all my eye candy FX, it runs at about 90 fps.

I just wish I cared enough to play.

Thank you Mr. Buzzkill. :)
It runs much better after a reboot on my laptop which is stronger than most desktops.

Sorry - I ASSumed the thing had a weak vid card, like 99.99999999% of the laptops out there.

My understanding was that pretty much everything in a laptop is compromised in favor of battery life. So, on yours, you get what, like 3.786 minutes on a charge?
