Games are running slow with Vista.?

Hi, my brand new laptop should be handling these games fine, although they are being a bit slow on me.

My computers specs are:

Model: Dell Inspiron 1501

RAM: 2GB

HDD: 120GB

CPU: AMD Turion 64 X2 (TL-60) 2.0GHz

Video Card: ATI Radeon® Xpress 1150

Operating System: Windows Vista Home Premium

So the games should run fine with those specs. I have also upgraded my video card drivers. Any help guys?
