HI,

I just got a new 15 inch macbook pro (2.4 ghz, 2 gb ram) a couple days ago. On my old computer, a 2.0 ghz mbp, call of duty 2 worked fine with hardly any lagging. When I tried it on my new one, the game started lagging even in the game's menus! I tried reinstalling the game but nothing works...

Any ideas?

Also, when I choose to open with rosetta it doesn't lag as much but the launch and map loading times suffer...
