Problem seems to be resolved, however, run DXDIAG and share your specs :)


Here's the main bit.  

 

 

That's a pretty good laptop.


It's claiming DX11. Does it have a discrete GPU, because Intel's graphics don't do DX11 afaik.

Thanks Snesboy.  As for Soleron, I'm not exactly sure what you mean by discrete GPU, but the graphics card is an ATI Radeon HD 4650.  When vista was installed,  the laptop was running DX10, so I'm guessing the DX11 was installed with Windows 7.  

Most laptops tend to have an integrated chip (usually Intel) that tend to be crap but consume less power. You have a proper graphics chip with its own seperate RAM allocation (integrated use up some of the system's RAM).

Yeah that's discrete (i.e. a seperate PCB) and supports DX11, makes sense.
