Romulus: It is a good game! Okay if you have an AMD chip
check out this. I know you said you're playing it on your laptop now, but I'm still trying to come up with as many ideas as possible, just in case someone else get this problem.
Well my cpu is top of the line. My laptop, on the other hand, is old (2000). So thats not really the issue. Thanks though! (By top of the line I mean I'm going to go back to playing fallout3 on LOW quality)
