Well, there have been many reports of extreme lag today. Don't worry about it for now. There's a thread in the Riverside Inn about this if you're interested.

I don't think your computer is the problem.
This laptop I am using to run guild wars is

Windows xp
Intel core duo 1.7 ghz
1.5 Gig RAM
Some Intel video card ....not as good as yours... runs it no problem

There is a difference between *drop of frame rate* and lagging.
Frame rate drop is usually when your computer is getting pushed by the game... like the ones *very commonly* seen to those who play Elder Scrolls Oblivion. Guild Wars is not high end system mmorpg by any means. Try playing Battlefield 2, you'll know what lag is

That lag you are experiencing might be some connection disruption from your cable provider all the way to the Guild wars server OR simply quit all background programs running; such as those peer-to-peer programs like MSN, Yahoo Messenger, Limewire, etc (since they consume a lot of bandwith). But if you get those slideshows, try lowering your screen resolution in game.
