    Hello

    I've this Mitac 8050QD with a 6600go 128 mb ram graphiccard, but how can it be, that in most games it is lagging, for an example, is it lagging in CS, NFSMW etc.

    Sincerely
    David

    What are the rest of your PC specs? Perhaps your computer is infected with something? Try Ctrl+Alt+Del while you game and select Task Manager and see which task is eating up your CPU/RAM besides the game itself.

    How much RAM do you have installed in the system? Because I have the same GPU and mine doesnt lag at all, I'm running at 1GB of RAM.

    We need more information than what you're providing . . any system is going to lag if the settings are too high. If you could provide your system specifications and what resolutions and settings you are running the game(s) at, that would help as posted.

    I've a Intel Pentium M 1.73 CPU, 1 gb ram, 60 gb harddisk, 6600go with 128 mb ram, but don't think it is infected, i've scanned with Norton, Ad-aware, spybot - search and destroy, x-cleaner. But have you any other ideas, about what there could be wrong.

    What graphics settings are you trying to play at? NFS:MW stresses my Go6800 quite a bit, dipping to about 20FPS at times @ maximum settings, so if you're trying to play at maximum settings on a 128MB Go6600, you're going to lag - a lot. Same is true of CS:S to a lesser extent, although it shouldnt be too noticeable unless you've enabled too much AA or AF.

    Could it have something to do with the card, if it's not running probably or something like that.
