When I play games online that need downloading, they all lag. What to do? I'm using a win vista laptop.

The lag could be due to your broadband connection. Also, downloading games takes quite a while, especially if you have a 1MB connection which is the first one they usually give you. It took me at least half a day to download the Orange Box. It really depends on how busy that particular games servers are too.
