My friends running black and white 2 on his laptop, which uses a 3.0ghz p4 and a radeon 9600 mobile (has literally no battery life). However, even on the lowest settings it runs terrible at around maybe 3 fps at 640*480 res, while his brothers computer, with a 2.8ghz p4 and radeon 9200 is quite playable at the lowest settings, maybe 30fps (if barely) at 1024*768 res. The difference is that his brothers is a desktop, and im not sure how much RAM they have, but i think its the same (at least a gig for each). I havent been able to figure out why theres such a huge difference, since theyve both minimized the amount of junk running in the background.
I thought that it might be that the 9600 is being bogged down by trying to run directx 9 stuff, but i wouldnt think theres much of that going on at the lowest setting. Is there a way to completely disable directx 9 features thats not specific to the game? He has reinstalled the game multiple times with no changes, and I wouldnt think that it would run much worse than the desktop, if worse at all.
Thanks in advance
