A few questions then. Have you patched the game to version 1.4? And what version are the drivers for your ATI card?

Yes it is patched to 1.4 english version. and my ati driver is 6.14.10.6430, is that correct?

That sounds like a rather old ATI driver. What DirectX version do you use? (Start->Run "DxDiag") 9.0c is the latest version, so install it if you haven't already.

 

And for new ATI drivers, use either Omega Drivers or use this tool to install the 4.12 ATI drivers. That is if your laptop manufacturer doesn't have new drivers for you on his site.
