Minecraft is surprisingly resource hungry for such a basic game.

• You need a lot of ram. Preferably over a gigabyte if not more.
• You need a fairly modern graphics card that can push quite a few polygons and render post-processing effects such as environmental lighting.
• You need a fairly decent cpu to crunch the numbers of the procedural world generation code, along with running the actual game, providing the computing powers to support the AI, along with everything else in the game.

If you don't have all of the above points ticked, then there's the reason as to why it's lagging for you. Your "gaming rig" cannot play Minecraft because it is technically inferior to play such a resource demanding game.

I've got 12 gigabytes of RAM, a 64-bit CPU that has 8 cores, running at 3ghz, and sometimes Minecraft will chug on my rig. It's hilarious because I can get better and more consistent FPS playing the resource hungry Crysis.

ctrl + alt + del
processing (or something like that) (2nd option in the top)
choose minecraft and the last option change it to high
dont change it to realitic time or that may slow ure comp down

u have to have minecraft running

and i have a 5 year old toshiba and it works fine

edit: try setting you render distance lower and settings graphics in MC from fancy to fast

also if your on the laptop right click you battry button and find the option where you choose the energy and choose more (you dont have to do all of these but they helped my mc out, since it alwase crashed and back tracked everything i did)

^Yeah, do that enough times and you'll sacrifice processing time to run the game, eventually you'll get to the point where a game is so lag-inducing that to set it's processing priority to maximum makes your keyboard and mouse unresponsive, lol.

^Did I post that particular sentence aimed at myself? Nope. You said that you lag with particular games, so that you have to make it so that the task manage checks an option where it sacrifices processing time to run a game at a higher priority. You will eventually find a game where it takes it's toll on your computer's hardware where it will eventually cause increased unresponsiveness. Sure, it'll render those frames for a nice FPS count, but your computer won't be able to do much else.

i never download big games on my gay laptop like bf3 etc (other than tf2) since i know that my laptop wont run it well, i downloaded over 50+ fps that i wanted to look at that looked nice but it couldnt run it well, crashing, bad graphics card not showing the buttons and letters, lag, for those games i dont evern try speeding it up. even cs laggs for me and not tf2 (well not on big maps) but i dont even try to since i know i will just waste my time

I used to have that problem, then I bought parts for a gaming rig and got it professionally put together.

inb4 people realizing that I unintentionally made an arrow to the knee joke/reference.

Seriously though out of the two things that would cause lag, little to no RAM (under a gig or two) and a shitty graphics card would cause the lag.
Judging by what the OP said when he posted "Intel Pentium Dual Core", he's got a decent CPU. I'm guessing he just doesn't have big/large enough DDR RAM in his laptop, or that his graphics card is crap due to his laptop being 5 to 10 years old.

@user Majatek:
Wow, your computer is quiet AMAZING! If i am 343 Guilty Spark you are the Pillar of Autumn. What's your graphic card? It is important for not to lag in games.

LOL

I have 512 MB RAM
256 Nvidia GeForce FX 5200 (GFX)
Pentium 4 3Ghz

I'm still able to run minecraft at 90 FPS with OptiFine with a rare amount of glitching

AMD Phenom II X4 (3.2GHz)
8GB of RAM
ATI Radeon HD6950 (2GB)

I'm doing fine (80~120fps without OptiFine and lag spikes), no outstanding processor, this means you need good RAM and video-card for this game, processor is not that important (of course you will not be able to run it on a Intel 4004).

If it gives you minecraft memory problem, just set the view range onto Short-Tiny.
It worked for me.

Done Loading*.

When I turn on minecraft it loads up(around 90%) and it says ''Done Loading'' but it doesn't start.
