Hello,

I'm having some serious video problems. I've determined it's NOT adware or spyware, as I've rebaselined the computer. The problem is when I'm playing video games it would run absolutely smooth as silk before, now it's very choppy when running those same games. I'm thinking there's a problem with some piece of computer hardware (that's all I can think it might be), the computer's always had problems with over heating, it's an Alienware 51M. Is it the RAM? Is it the video card? If it's the video card how do I replace it? When starting up it still boots quickly, does other applications fast, installs programs fast, just video games are suddenly a problem... Help please!
