When I play Iji and Poacher on my laptop, Iji tends to lag like crazy and eventually close unless I have effects and shaking all the way down (even then it sometimes has a fit), and Poacher immediately freezes and closes whenever I die or kill a blue elephant thing, which I suspect is due to the blood sprites that pop up. These things didn't happen on my mother's laptop, which I thought was kind of inferior, so is this because I have a terrible graphics card or because I'm playing on Windows 8 as opposed to 7 now? =o
Hmm... That's the same error the other person got...
They have : "W7, x64, Intel i5-2430, Nvidia GeForce GT540M, Nvidia soundcard"
I'm thinking it's the M Nvidia card that might possibly be the issue. Do you have that too? Can you check for me sometime? :]
Two quick ways to check:
Windows key + R
msinfo32
Then expand components and click on Display...
Or just right click desktop -> screen resolution -> advanced settings
(probably the same in Windows 8)
