J. Galt Posted May 13, 2012 Posted May 13, 2012 Acer Aspire 7750 Windows 7 Home Premium Intel Core i3-2350M CPU @2,30GHZ 64Bit Operating System Intel HD Graphics 3000 8GB DDR3 Memory No Texture Packs Just Vanilla Minecraft, ergo, Technic Pack lags too This is what i have tried over the last weeks, found here, and all over the web, and no improvement : All possible Java Versions .bat files Tweaking Ingame Settings(render Distance Short etc..) Set My Laptop To Best Performance In advanced System Settings Using Classic Windows Theme No Background Programs running Got Avast Antivirus Allocated all Types of ram Set Java To High Priority in Taskmanager Playing Offline And Believe me, I cross-tried all possibilities Since My Minecraft is working better on my other Pc which is a 6 year old Windows XP, 1GB ram but with nVidia Graphics, Im starting to wonder if my Laptops Graphicscard is the problem, or just some other Setting or hardware component. Again, Vanilla Minecraft or modded, the lag is basically the same : It loads the world very fast, even on render distance far, then it drops in the next 30 seconds to 20FPS, sooner or later to 10FPS. It never crashes. Any Help Appreciated Quote
miniboxer Posted May 13, 2012 Posted May 13, 2012 use optifine, it makes a huge difference, but just accept 10 FPS if you have to, sometimes I have to deal with around 3 FPS for about a minute. Quote
J. Galt Posted May 13, 2012 Author Posted May 13, 2012 Thanks Erus, so this means theres no point trying, or are there any settings I can change? Thanks also miniboxer, it might help with the vanilla, but i dont really play vanilla. Technic pack has optifine, doesnt help Im pointing out that my vanilla MC lags exactly like a modded version because i suspect a hardware incompatibility from my laptop, which seems to be the case as Erus pointed out Many thanks Quote

If that doesn't help, you need a new card in your laptop. Quote
J. Galt Posted May 13, 2012 Author Posted May 13, 2012 Tried all that. Just found some info about how i have a customized graphicscard and that i cant update to a newer driver for some reason, so, gonna take it to the shop. Maybe this should be pointed out in the common Problems, then again, the problem doesnt really seem to be common.... I Appreciate it guys! Quote
miniboxer Posted May 14, 2012 Posted May 14, 2012 The problem here is your intel HD graphics. lol, I noticed that but didn't want to mention it,considering some people get up in arms when you say their machine is underpowered. Quote
freakachu Posted May 14, 2012 Posted May 14, 2012 not sure if this applies to you OP, but if you have optifine installed and the "far view" option enabled, try disabling it. Quote
J. Galt Posted May 14, 2012 Author Posted May 14, 2012 Well, just found out the guys that work at the shop where i bought my laptop know jackshit about pcs...tells me to contact acer.. I get what u mean miniboxer.after your first reply I was going to mention that i dont see why i should bother playing on anything less than high settings, then i thought, why so saddistic!? Thanks for the try freakachu, but sadly that doesnt seem to be the problem. I guess no Technic pack for me, in a few months ill need a new desktop pc, so i ll know not to get a Intel HD3000. Quote
