Hi,

I've got a notebook with Windows 7 (32-bit).

I have DirectX 11 (came with windows), Pentium Dual Core 2,10Ghz, 180 Gb free on my HDD and 4 GB of ram.
My

My graphics card is named Mobile Intel 4 Series Express Chipset Family. It has 1,3GB of video ram.

The problem occurs when I use FPS Creator X10. When I execute it and edit my levels it works perfectly, but when I test the level I suffer from slow frame rates. Is it a problem with my set up? If so how can I fix it so that I runs smoothly?

Thanks in advance.

That's the problem. That is a chipset, not a graphics card, it won't properly render X10 shaders and entities as it should, producing lag. Because it is a chipset, you can't replace it either, so you would need to get a new motherboard with a compatible GPU, processor, etc... (If you're using a desktop not laptop).

Yeah budokaiman is absolutely right. You will NEVER get acceptable performance with an integrated graphics chip like the Mobile Intel 4 Series Express Chipset, regardless of operating system. It's just not up to the task - you'll need dedicated graphics whether you're using a laptop or desktop.
