NECROPOST!

So, I gots me a new laptop, with that cursed Windows 8.

It runs like a charm, streams video well, but for some reason Flash games (specifically Avengers Alliance on Facebook, my lil boys favorite) run rather slow and choppy. Everything else I do goes just fine.

Any thoughts why this would be so?

Beyond the fact that Windows 8 sucks so bad that a friend of mine who is a computer programer downgraded his new laptop to a copy of windows 7 he bought? I have no idea,sorry.
