« on: December 10, 2012, 08:34:36 pm »
I have dell n7110 laptop, with i7 proc and 8gb ram. I run nothing but the game and drivers are updated to the latest.
Geforce GT 525M - 1366x768

ultra 7-12 ftps

What can i do to increase fps? At low setting water is all black.

It sounds like you have a clean install of Windows, but did you install the full NVIDIA drivers or is the default Windows driver installed?

Mine is version 9.18.13.0697 (version 306.97 on nvidia.com). Go to http://www.geforce.com/drivers, pick your video card and OS version (be sure to get 64-bit drivers if you have a 64-bit version of Windows) then download and install the latest drivers (306.97 for Vista, 7, and 8, 306.81 for XP).

I've just downgraded laptops- the laptop i was using previously was my brothers, this one is mine, it didn't work for a while and now it does. The specs in my signature are updated- where would I go to update the driver for this graphic card?

Try using the verification tool on this page to make sure that it is fully compatible with your laptop. Sometimes laptop makers use a modified version of more common graphics cards so it's best to be sure.
