    I own 7805u
    Geforce 9800GTS 1GB
    System has 4GB

    I have HDD lags in the game
    settings are high and res is max.

    Is it the reason?

    benchmark hdd first and post screenshot
    defragging first might help

    usually storage lag comes from loading screens not during gameplay

    It sounds to me like you might not know what you are talking about. Are you having lag in game, or are loading times taking too long?

    If your problems are fps related then it's not your HDD that is the problem, but most likely either your GPU or CPU under performing.

    Check with GPUZ and CPUZ if your components are running at the correct clocks and frequencies and that you are not overheating.

    Loading times are acceptable.
    What I mean is that during gameplay I encounter FPS dropdowns and I see the harddisk working (being orange). The most funny thing is that the same thing was in BLOOD (1997).
