Okay, for your vid card, you should open the run box and type "dxdiag" -- this will give you your video rundown info.

On WoW I had lag until I upgraded from 512 MB RAM to 1 GB RAM. WoW is not graphic intensive, so vid card is not your problem. Wireless LAN may be a limitation -- make sure your wireless card is one of the newer ones with high transfer rate. If not, use a cable to hook up if you can.

But, the best thing you can do is upgrade your memory. I bought my 2 new RAM chips for well under $200, and I don't LAG at all any more, even in ORG in a full server with auctioneer running. So, my little laptop is still suiting my purposes for gaming. [img]smile.gif[/img]

(edit) Correction, I lagged last night. Looting took forever, and selling was buggy for some time too. But, everyone in my guild had this issue. Sometimes there are server-side issues, and that's that.
