I just got scourge of war gettysburg as a gift but when I play it it is really laggy. So much that I cant even get through the tutorials. I would like some help and fast as this game seems really awesome! Well thanks to who ever responds.
( I have a Windows vista that has alot of games. I uninstalled 2 or 3 to give space for this game. Hope this helps)

This game is very demanding on hardware. There are a number of options that can be adjusted to improve performance. From the main menu, select the options screen, at the bottom click the button with II on it to go to the 2nd page of options. Try reducing the percent trees down to 50 or lower. In addition the options in the Terrain section will also affect performance, try reducing the draw distances as well.

It is also quite sensitive to system memory, you really need to have at least 4 GB of system memory for this program to run.

If you are running the game on a system with shared video memory, this will also have significant effects on game performance. To check this: Start Run dxdiag.exe this will start a built in program to check hardware. Run it and look under the Display tab to see what you have.
