Dink Smallwood HD is very faulty on my computer,it's very slow(especially the menu) and the text and game play is also slow and I'm not able to install Dmods.My computer has 512 MB ram,3.18 ghs processer,128 MB graphics or something and win 7.I also tried it on my cousins computer today and it had the same problems.His had 1GB ram,2.50ghs processer,1GB gforce graphics card and win 7 also.Oh,and both our computers were bought 2 or 3 years ago.Our computers exceed the requirements but it's still slow,why is that?

I'm not sure why that could be. All I can think of is that you might have the framerate limiter on... When you launch DinkHD, go into the options menu and check whether FPS Lock is turned on. If it is, turning it off could speed it up again. It it's already off, then... I have no clue

The latest versions of Dink HD have pretty steep system requirements. Not in terms of raw power, but it requires you to have up-to-date video card drivers, OpenGL, and whatnot... I'm pretty clueless about the details, so I'd just try updating evefrything.

Life? What's that? Can I download it?! 
More details. MOAR DEATAILSS...!!1

About the first computer running win7 with 512MB RAM... Not a good idea, you need at least 1GB. And 128MB graphics is a little on the sloppy side.

Update the graphics drivers, latest directx, restart comp etc. do the usual computer check and try again.

My cousin had 1GB and it still runs slow.And I'm not able to go to options either when I click it,it goes slow and the game starts.And Scratcher I did update everything and I have open gl and that other stuff too.
