Bzf on windows vista
I've downloaded the 2.0.10 version to my notebook. Although it runs it's always very slow. Even the serverlist appears slowly. When i connect to any server i feel like I would get only one picture per second... Is that a known problem and how to fix it!?

When you first open your client, BZFlag will tell you what graphics driver is in use. You should get a screen similar to this:
The purple "OpenGL Driver" listing is what we're interested in.
If your drivers are properly configured, you might try navigating to the display settings menu and setting the quality to "High". Some cards don't seem to like the "Medium" and "Low" graphics quality settings.

What video card do you have?
So you need to know how to find out...
Open Device Manager by clicking the Start button , clicking Control Panel, clicking System and Maintenance, and then clicking Device Manager. Administrator permission required If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation. Look for an item titled "Display adapters", and click the + sign next to it. Listed will be the display adapter(s) on your system.
Armed with that information, you can then go to the manufacturer's web site and get the latest drivers for it. If you aren't sure where or which ones to download feel free to post what your graphics card is and we can point you in the right direction.

This is from the ATI site:
SO, I guess now we need to know the model and manufacturer of your laptop...Mobility Radeon™ Support for Windows Vista
Currently AMD does not provide any driver support for Mobility Radeon™ products. All driver and technical support for Mobility Radeon™ products is provided by the original laptop or notebook manufacturer. The drivers that are available for download at ati.amd.com are for desktop products only.
To download Windows Vista Mobility Radeon™ drivers or driver updates for your laptop or notebook product, please visit your laptop or notebook manufacturer's website.

Well since you didn't tell me us the model of the laptop (just the specs, so I am guessing a Lifebook A6020) here is the closest I can get you...

in the select product drop down choose... 'Notebook PC', in the select series choose 'A Series" and in the Select Model drop down choose 'A6020'. Towards the bottom (not the XP driver at the bottom) you will see 'Video - Intel 945GM '. Download that and install it.

Use the drop downs to find your notebook model. Then, after that, you can pick the OS, and obtain drivers for your system.
