    Hey guys I just bought this thing yesterday and installed titan quest and looking at the specs it should be running fantastically (512 dedicated Vram, 2.27 ghz Dual core, 4 gb ram, windows vista 64-bit) But its actually pretty slow. I've used the NBR vista tweak guide and checked for graphics driver updates (there were none) and also check for rivatuner (which can't do anything with this ATI card apparently. It just seems like a waste almost, this should be doing greaat with a moderately old game like titan quest but it won't run everything maxed on it which is kinda wierd. Is this normal for this laptop? Are VAIO's simply for multimedia and not games? I just don't understand the deal here. IF someone could help that would be great.
