There is no guarantee that games will work on mobile graphics. I once had to hack desktop drivers to run on my laptop to get a game to work because no matter what I did there was just something strange going on with the mobile drivers. I believe CLOD has such a disclaimer on the minimum requirements from memory. If you can get it to work at all on a mobile GPU, your lucky anyway. Unfortunately that mobile GPU is no where near enough for this game.
Just for reference I have a VAIO VPC-Z128GG with 1GB GT330M, i7-620M 2.66Ghz, 8GB Ram and 256GB SSD and on CLOD I only get about 15FPS maximum with everything pretty much on minimum settings @ 1920x1080.
Here's your mobile GPU compared to a bunch of others, looks like you have the 2nd fastest in that range of GT555M's. (there is no GTX555)

Its unlikely that the patch will make much difference to that level of hardware. Sorry but thems the facts!
Here's my results with an external GTX580 1.5GB on the same laptop. Blackdeath 35-50FPS @ 1920x1080 Everything on high, shadows & SSAO off. (the 330M only does 3FPS with the same settings)

I just did some further research for you and the GT555M just isnt enough to meet minimum requirements. It's less than a GTX8800 which is the minimum spec.
