Right, just done a clean re install of my laptop. All drivers updated and its back to the state it was when I first put ARMA2 OA on. Only problem now is I struggle to get past 15 fps lol. This is the only game causing problems. Witcher 2 works fine, EVE works with no problems. Just ARMA and its driving me mental! ---------- Post added at 04:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:46 AM ---------- Finally sorted it. Changed every setting one by one and it turns out that ARMA 2 doesnt like "Virtualisation technology". I disabled this in the BIOS and it has sorted it. All graphichs settings set to high, with pp turned off (i just dont get on with it) and just finished the first mission with a very respectable avrage fps of 24.8. This may not seem very high but it is extremley playable the only time it really drops is when staring at a helicopter whilst its kicking up dust everywhere. Even the bunches of trees aren't causing me hassle any more. The whole game just feels really smooth compared to before on all low settings when I was getting better fps but the game still felt sluggish.

I will take a look when i get back home. This seems to be the only game im having running problems with. Currently got the witcher 2 and that runs at a very reasonable average of 24.7fps with settings on high. That was in the jungle. Might do a clean wipe on my laptop and start over. Have done some pissing about with it the last few days. Edit: Might also take a look and see if my Turbo boost is working. Its supposed to be capable of more with the boost enabled depending on how many cores are active.

Have just set everything to the lowest settings (disabled where availible) The max I get is 27fps :S when looking at the sky i only get 30 :( Would rather sacrifice the slight loss of fps and have it looking tastey.

Just got OA finally and thought my laptop would have no problems with this game but man was I wrong. I get and average of 20 fps if I put the pre set to very high!! Shame it runs so slowly cos it looks epic!!!!! Currently running i7 Q740, 4gb of dual channel ram and an nvidia gtx 460m. I dont suppose anyone knows if theres a way to get the anti aliasing off of tress cos the moment I get to a group of trees my laptop starts to cry :(
