Well, here is what to do, but please note: your computer may not let you do this:
1. Re-start your computer
2. go into the BIOS, or the setup menu *DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING ELSE IN THE BIOS, YOUR COMPUTER IS RUNNING OFF OF THIS, AND SO IS OTHER APPLICATIONS
3. Go into the hardware section, and find your video card
4. Click on it, and it should pull up some diagnostics such as the name of your card, the speed it is running at, etc . . .
5. IF your computer lets you do this, change the speed of the graphics card, and save and exit the bios
6. When you start up your computer and log on, it may look different because the reason that you had to change this certain type of setting is because it may have running too fast for the game, but not for the laptop itself.
7. pixelation will decrease, and so will other graphical interfaces
8. you should be able to run your game without much problems!! : )
