Also have you checked to make sure this game (which we still don't know what it is) has patches made available to it on the software manufacturer's website? They might have a patch for the game that might resolve a problem that it could be having.

Find out how much memory is in your laptop... if its standard 1gig up that to 2 gig... that should help the problem hopefully for all gaming issues... or it could be hardware... the best thing to do is go to your local Apple Store and tell them what is happening.

As I mentioned earlier, check the software maker's website for any patches that might be available for the game.

If there isn't, then there's not much you can do on that front. However, did you finakly download and install the Windows ATI Catalyst drivers? Try that and see if it improves performance for you. I don't think there should be any issues since it's basically running as a Windows computer (and Windows DOES think it's a regular PC anyways), but it's worth a test. If anything, just make sure that you set a Windows System Restore snapshot before you do it so that you can revert to that snapshot if anything goes wrong.
