Game won't record, no green dot.

Sorry about the two topics one after another. I got the last problem sorted out, but when I open Portal, make sure it's in DirectX 9.0, run WeGame as an Administrator, and go to the game, there is no green dot. I have tried troubleshooting as much as I can, and used the help center, but nothing will work. I am running Windows 7 64 bit. Can somebody help me?

Thanks.

Sure. What are your system specs, what operating system do you use, and is it an English version? What games are you able to record right now? Did you get the update on Monday? Have you tried after a reboot?

I don't know too much about computers, but I have:
Intel Core 2 Duo T6600 @ 2.20GHz 2.20GHz, 4GB RAM, Windows 7 64 Bit. It's a gaming laptop. I haven't tried any other games or after a reboot, and I didn't get Monday's update because I just started using WeGame today.
I guess I have some things to try.
Thanks so much for the help, I will report on effectiveness soon.
EDIT: I actually downloaded WeGame like a year ago, but just started using it now. Should I Re-Download, or just update it?

You can just update it. Let me know how it works out after trying that. What model is the laptop? I can find out the rest of the specs from there.

Sorry if this is a double post, it wasn't showing my first.
My computer is an HP Pavilion DV6 1355DX.
It's an English version, in answer to your first question.

Yes unfortunately most games offer no support for the Intel 4500MHD graphics chip, which is one of a few cheap graphics chips laptop makers use, believing the most they will be used for is Win 7 Aero effects, web surfing, and video watching. My wife's laptop uses the same and it just isn't designed for much more than low level acceleration and I apologize for the frustration.

Actual gaming laptops are typically far more expensive that use AMD and Nvidia solutions. Here is an example. Unlike desktops, you can't upgrade graphics hardware in a laptop.

It records all other games besides MW2? You didn't get frustrated after the 29th key on your keyboard and went all the way to 500? :D

Can you give me the same info?

Really? It's a cheapie videocard? Did I mention it's Portal, on full graphics, full resolution, and fullscreen? I can record with (Trial version) FRAPS and there's only an almost unnoticeable lag. This was a laptop designed for gaming, or that's what I was told. I guess I'll just bite the bullet and buy FRAPS. Thanks for the help anyways Energyone.

One last thing:
I didn't realize I started a thread about trying to record MW2... I guess I'm losing my mind.
