AbsoluteGenius Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 I think you need more ram. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
richjb78 Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Try unticking "threading" in the game preferences menu. That can help. However I agree I think you need more ram. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrashOverride Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 More ram would definetly help. Dont think you will have thearding as that doesnt look like a dual core processor to me? www.crucial.com/uk for all your ram needs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
baker.simon Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Your graphics card is a bit low too really. Unless its a gaming laptop, generally laptops have poorer graphics cards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 In a nutshell your specs are low across the board for FM, you really need more ram & a better gfx card & cpu to run more than a couple of leagues at a reasonable speed add to that a rather slow HDD & I'm afraid an upgrade might be your only solution.
