This is just a compilation of things that may enhance your playing LC on your computer. This is a work in progress and I add on when I can. Of, course, put in your two cents or two bytes worth two. I will explain as if you have no knowledge of computers as such.
MEMORY
Does your pc have enough memory? LC is memory intensive so if you did not have enough then you would get a lot of lag in the game. No some of the older computers, well you can not do nothing about it as they can only handle so much. In otherwords, they can usually not get more then 1 GB of memory to use. I will have links where you can go and see if you can add more memory to your pc. Remember now, each pc is different and the motherboard (mobo) can only handle so much memory. Like have a cup of water. You can have a gallon container of water like having 4 Gb of RAM, but no matter how much you try, the cup will only handle so much water and the rest is waster. So to, you can buy more memory but if your motherboard can handle only 1 Gb of RAM then the rest is waster money. 1 Gb runs about $100, on the average.
Go here to check out your memory and how much, if any, you can get. (ADD LINK)

Hmmm, I bet you just loaded up and never read the instructions. But do you know about Ready Boost? Bet not. Basically, it is adding a ready boast memory stick and use this for your memory instead of the pc memory. Read on how it boosts the load time and everything else. Remember, there are different configurations and money you can spend on the flash drive or memory stick now. But the max memory you would buy anyway is 4 Gb as this is all the ready boast can handle at the time. But read for further explanations. When I get my flash drive done, I will post it and let you all know what I did, how much, and blah blah blah.
