Hi,
im running the following on my laptop:
Acer Aspire 4720Z
Windows Vista tm Home Premium SP2 32bit
Intel(R) Pentium(R) Dual CPU T2370 @ 1.73 GHz
1.00 GB DDR2 SDRAM
i have a 252MB Mobile Intel(R) Graphic Media Accelerator X3100
whenever i run a game that has some bit that's supposed to be in 3d, it runs really slow. the games are run on emulators. anything in 2d, like menu screens, etc are fine. i have a relatively old game (not on the emulators) that runs fine on opengl and slow on direct3d so i tried changing the plugins in the emulators themselves between OpenGL, and Direct3D, and whatever was built in but that didnt help at all. the games actually worked perfectly when i first got them but changed suddenly in a couple of days. i cant think of any significant changes i could have made to my system that could maybe explain why. any help is appreciated, and i can give as much info as is needed although, im obviously not very knowledgeable on graphics drivers and stuff.
thx
edit: i wasnt sure which section of the board this should go in so i just put it in here, sorry
