    Have you tried NOT overclocking your computer and then running the game? Also, do you have the latest graphics drivers from Laptopvideo2go.com?

    run 180.84, mine was like this with your drivers. Now it runs perfectly on medium/high with full shaders, half view distance and it's not even utilizing all of my video memory.
