As Malice says, be sure to check the vidmem available with the laptop. Bear in mind that if you're loading more graphics in than the laptop has room for in vidmem it's going to chug each frame as it swaps the 'extra' images in and out of system memory. =Also= keep in mind that if it's a windowed app, the desktop rez & color depth figures into that VMEM calculation... so tho your friend may have an 8MB video card, if it's a windowed app and his desktop is 1024x768x32, he's already using up around 3MB of that alone.
