    What kind of suggestions?

    Intel Atom isn't really for gaming, atleast if not complemented by NVidia ION -graphics chip. You can't change that. I'm also using a netbook at the moment (Asus EEE PC 1015PN), but I don't even try to play anything.

    One way to make the computer more "snappier" would be to install more RAM. I guess you are using a netbook, so depending on the system, only way to up the RAM would be by buying a 2 GB RAM and install it. Whether it is DDR2 or DDR3 depends on your system.

    And I would advice you to not use realtime scanners on netbook. It's just the fact that your computer will be already slow, and scanners make it even more slow.

    If you don't have enough RAM, I suspect your video card isn't big enough for games either. My 2004 DELL came with 1GB RAM and the video card was 128MB. I had to get a 512MB card.:)

    More RAM is needed first, especially if using Vista.
