there are too many different brands to give you a specific line, but:

Go to your computer's root directory (usually Start->Computer), it'll have C:/ and maybe J:/ etc. on it. Maybe a backslash, I can't remember.

On the Computer/My computer screen, right click blank space click properties

There should be a rating number, bring it up.

There'll be a table with numbers from 0.0, to 7.9, look for graphics and gaming graphics.

My graphics have got 3.6 and gaming graphics 5.2

So basically, graphics around 2-3+ and gaming graphics around 4-5+.

Nah, it's good. Mines 3.6 personnaly, but I'm rerunning it becuase I think it was ran with an older graphics card.

So unless it's another factor; average 3.5+ running it so far?

Well, I have a way which may not work but it requires you either having some computer knowledge or replying a lot.

Go on your desktop, right click empty space ( Or if you have none, like I didn't used to, try to organise some into folders ) and see if there's a menu for your graphics card.

Likely to be ATI or NVIDIA.

If so, open it and try to raise quality as much as possible.

Also, if you notice things like certain are dark when other peoples' are light., then you may want to raise Digital gamma, since people don't realise but that is a realy good property to raise or lower appropriatly for dark games.

Try both.

Properties == Options effectively (== = is equal to)

Oh, also. I had to turn QualityLevel to 21 to make new shadows work (I also made quaility High, turned CollisionSounds to true and gave every brick a shadow)

Oh, and so far I have got very little lag.
