    What were your lappy's specs, and what kind of settings did you have on (eg. textures/effects) ?

    Could the OP disable the 9300m GS by uninstalling in safe mode and deleting drivers? At the very least, it would severely cripple the card and we would know if it switches during the game.

    Really?? My X3000 desktop gets 9 fps at the same settings. Can you run the GPU test benchmark to see how fast it is?? It runs it 3 times to get the performance results but i cancelled it after first one, which still shows the results.

    Try to get the latest drivers guys. You'd want to use something equal/later than 15.9.8. The previous ones are REALLY slow.
