    Well, depends on the mission really. 2.2ghz is a little low but if the map isn't loaded with AI or you are not fighting in the bushes, FPS should be ok. ArmA2 is very heavy on AI processing as there are so many thing that are happening and so many units that actually do some thinking on their own instead of just pop to be shot at. I get about 25 to 30fps on fun missions with fair amount of AI, even the i7 guys aren't getting much higher, so don't expect 70 to 100 fps type like the FPS shooters out there. Its a simulation engine which is running in ArmA2.

    Then you need to paste your full system on your signature like I did so the rest of us know how to help you. In the meantime, try lowering the details. If lowering details helps, then you know what the problem is.

    What settings do you play?

    Also, you can't compare crysis performance with arma 2 performance. Completely different type of calculations needed for ArmA2. And it's comparing performance from a game of 2007 vs 2009.

    He plays with the onboard gf8200 mGPU.

    You cant expect good fps with that.
    First thing to do here is to upgrade the gfx

    Ouch That's definately the problem. No way this game will run with onboard graphics.

    It's both. The only thing bad about your processor is it's speed. If you are good with computers you could try overclocking.

    That said, your graphics card is one of the major issues. Without replacing that you're not likely to get anything near acceptable frame rates.
