I don't know but what year was that computer made in because a game made even only a year after can be too much for the computer.And if that happened then you would have to upgrade your graphics card and maybe some other things.

It's just that games even made only a year after a computer will either lagg or not run so is your pc newer or older than the game?and how much older?and alot of good games will run on that.

I don't even see that GPU on Nvidia's list...

http://www.nvidia.com/object/geforce_m_series.html

No matter... if you look at the GPU above it and below it, you have an idea of how it'll perform... and it's not a GPU capable of moderate-to-heavy gaming. It'll do casual gaming fine... but not beyond that. It IS a HUGE step up from onboard video, but that's not really saying a whole lot.
