Hi guys, I'm having an big issue with this - I recently got it off Steam and decided to give it a whirl.

Problem is...while fighting ingame, the game just becomes really laggy and my fps drops alarmingly. I figured it was because of the max graphics I had - so I reduced it, but the fps drops again after a while of fighting. Pretty annoying since I have no problems playing games like Crysis 2 (med-to low graphics) etc.

I play windowed mode.

Laptop spec

Windows 7 Home
Intel Core2 Duo CPU P8700 @ 2.53Ghz
4GB RAM

nVidia Geforce GTX 260m
1GB


I'm about to go try the game with min specs:

Windowed mode
Particle Effects: low
1024x768
Shadows: no
Texture detail: low
Filtering mode: point
Motion blur: no
vertical sync: no
Film grain: no

But I just attempted it a while back and I still had low fps after a few mins of fighting 

Can anyone help me out? cheers

There is very littlle to be gained or lost with the image quality settings compared to screen resolution settings, but with the hardware you named, you shouldn't have to be dealing with problems from hardware. It has to be something else that is involved. What happens when you follow Microsoft's Clean Boot procedures to run the game without the Internet, the Virus Defence, and the Firewall?

Just tested that out right now...same thing after a while

Also my laptop is heating up a lot...will get a cooling pad for it, but that shouldn't be affecting the game no?

Most laptop manufacturers do a terrible job of including adequate cooling, and when the components are hot enough to be damaged, most of them will slow themselves down seriously to allow the heat to dissipate (not always soon enough for the damage not to begin to accumulate.  RAM just starts to die; it has no self-protection circuitry).  Bad cooling is only one reason for game producers to avoid offering game support to laptop owners.  The biggest reason is the extreme lack of standards.

I admit the laptop I bought wasn't really for gaming...but with the video card on it I figured gaming to a certain extent would be possible - so far that's been the case, I've played games without any problems - and if I ever do have any I just reduce the graphics, but ME1 I just can't fix that :S
