so i just bought left 4 dead when they had the 50% off sale...just got around trying it out...
and it's lagging! at first i thought it may be my connection...so i tried just single player and it still lags!...
the thing is my laptop is fairly new too...i bought it on boxing day...it's a dell inspiron 1525

here's the link for the specs...

it has a duo core 2.0 ghz and 3.0 gb of ram!!
i ran the cpu usage and it keeps stating that im using about 50% of the ram...is it because of this? any know how i lower the consumption?

i'm pissed that i can't run this game....i thought i exceeded the requirements for this game..or perhaps not?
