windows problems?, i get the same problem with my old gaming laptop. turns out games doesnt utilized 100% the capabillity of my old laptop because the game is not in fullscreen mode.
try this maybe?
Well maybe your windows doesnt support 8gb of memory, in short. your windows version is the 32 bit version that can only use up to 4gigs of ram if im not wrong. u may need to use the 64 bit windows version. thanks
