OK so I'm running M&B on my laptop and its lagging really bad

Comp specs:
Toshiba Satallite A305-6825
Windows Vista SP 1
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T5550 @ 1.83GHz
3Gb Ram
250Gb Hard Drive (97Gb free)
Mobile Intel(R) 965 Express Chipset Family

While my laptop IS 64 bit capable, the Idiots at the repair shop reloaded 32 on and I havent gotten around to changing it...

So, I turn all the textures down, turn off shadows, etc, etc. It says performance should be like 164%

But I still Lag...Then it dawns on me. Vista has Areo. A useless graphics that eats up your memory.

So... Right click on desktop->Personalize->Themes (on the scroll down bar, select windows classic)

THUS FIXED. Desktop looks like win 98 but game runs a little smoother.


Hope this helps some people
