Trouble with Laptop

Kafer860 · 12-07-2006, 07:03 PM

Recently I've had problems running any games with my laptop. It's not that it could never run anything, World of Warcraft, Dawn of War, and Counter-Strike Source all ran perfectly until about 3 days ago.

I have a Dell Latitude D610, 512 MB of RAM, 1.4 GHz Processor, and an ATI Radeon X300. In terms of other specs, I'm not exactly sure what they are.

Now, my FPS has dropped to about 5 or 6 for all of these games, where it used to be about 40-50 for Dawn of War and CS:S, and 60+ for WoW. I believe it may be a problem with my video card, but again I'm not sure. Also, I haven't installed any new software lately or gone to any "unsanitary" websites.
