    I recently did a clean wipe and installed all of the driver's manually to my 1520 following the dell website's advice. Since the wipe it seems my laptop gets alot more error messages while playing WoW. It usually occurs when i tab back into the game, there is all kinds of stuttering and artifacts all of the screen and it eventually crashes.

    Also whenever i try to close WoW after playing for maybe 2 hours or so the computer freezes and is unresponsive although the music is still playing.

    Also, with the clean install i didnt get any type of virus protection, where would i go about getting that? Right now im using the windows securtiy firewall and w/e with AVG.
