Sorry if i'm being a bit of a noob, i've looked around but cant find the answer to my problem...
I've got an HP pavilion zd8000 laptop with an Intel pentium 4 processor, 1 Gb memory (~600Mb available at startup) and an ATI Mobility Radeon X600 graphics chip (256Mb), and any games that I run have glitches/lines flashing from points on the screen to the edge, which increase in frequency and number the longer i run a game. This happens even on fairly small/old games like narbacular drop, which i thought i should be able to run smoothly... Is this just that my 'top cant handle gaming, or is there some way of making things run better (ie without the flashing lines)?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated, I want to get a couple of new games but there's no point until i fix this....
thanks in advance....
