Ordered a new laptop
well I just ordered a new laptop
the specs...well the basic hardware is
Core 2 Duo 2.26 Ghz(I know late, but it was cheap)
4 GB ram
Nvidia Geforce 9300GS 256 Mb graphics
250GB HD running 7200 RPM
its a dell vostro 1520, I paid about 700 bucks and got a bunch of other stuff included
I'd like to know if it will run well with CF since on another laptop I have has an nvidia Quadro 160NVS and its a crazy FPS spiker.

The Graphics card and the processor aren't the greatest, but it should run okay, try GameBooster if it doesn't. -
the only reason I think my other laptop is bad at running CF is because of vista, so thats why I tried as much as possible to get windows 7. I got windows 7 home premium 64bit
64 bit makes it slower. The max ram a 32 bit windows 7 can have is 4. So it is un needed for 64 bit. -

Very true, just for MW2 you need double the amount of minimum RAM for Vista, compared to XP. You could install Windows Vista Gamer Edition, or Windows 7 Diamond Edition like I have on my spare lappy, if you're intending to use it solely for gaming. -

I have never heard of windows 7 diamond edition. is it a modded or a full installation?
I probably won't end up playing mw2 on my laptop since I got it for ps3 :P. if I can run TF2 on it. I'll be fine for a while

It's a full installation, a whole different OS but it'll set ya back roughly $500-$600. You can get XP Diamond too, not too sure if there's a 7 Diamond.
Yeah I rarely ever play MW2 on laptop, cept when I'm out of the house.
