New Gaming Laptop (graphic / Memory Lag)
Sep 23, 2015
I just bought a new gaming laptop. It's an Asus GL552JX-DM088H.
CPU: Intel i5-4200H CPU @ 2.8GHz - 3.4GHz
RAM: 8GB
GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 950M 2GB
Memory: 128GB SSD drive + 1TB drive
OS: Windows 10 Home (64bit OS)
When I play a video game, doesn't matter which, I get a lag every few seconds / minutes. The games run smoothly on maximum FPS and graphics as they should. However, every now and then the image will freeze for like 0.5-1 seconds. I noticed that it happens usually (but not always) when an action is being performed in the game.
Examples:
*Hearthstone: Unable to queue more than one action in a row. Whenever I make a move, I get a freeze. Also freezes on other occasions.
*Diablo 3: A freeze now and then. No particular pattern.
*Bastion: Freezes sometimes when something happens. Could be an attack, a menu operation... anything.
*Smite: Freezes sometimes when I make an attack, use a skill or buy something. Also freezes randomly.
*Ark: Survival Evolved: A freeze now and then. No particular pattern.
*Photoshop CS6 (Yes, not a game, but it happens here as well. I use photoshop to paint with a Wacom Intuos4 Graphic Tablet / Pen): Whenever I change tools or make an action that is different than what I did previously, I get a freeze. (Computer still moves, but the program won't respond properly for 0.5-1 seconds)
Things I've tried:
*Update drivers, different drivers, remove / reinstall drivers. (current is 355.98)
*Turn off antivirus real-time scanning and firewall (I use McAfee)
*Checked GPU / CPU / RAM usage and heating. Like I said, I used these programs on a worse system and it all worked fine. My system is not strained in any way.
I suspect it has something to do with Windows 10 compatibility, but I want to be sure because I don't wanna roll to Windows 7 just to realize its not the problem and roll back to Windows 10. Too bad I upgraded from Windows 8.1 before I was able to test it...
I also thought I could be related to my Internet, but it does happen on Bastion which is an offline game. I don't know what to think.

Since upgrading to Windows 10 I've experienced cxonstant screen flickering during gaming. I can only really describe it as a weird fluctuation of brightness, in horizontal lines, up and down my monitor. On Counter Strike it seems to have been somewhat solved through V-Sync but I'm trying to play other games and it is making them completely unplayable.
I have turned V-Sync on through the Nvidia Control Panel and it has done nothing. I've tried running games at various different graphical settings and it has not worked. I have also tried running my monitor and PC from different power sockets just in case the PSU is somehow interfering and it has done nothing.
I have also experimented with running my monitor at different hz but I only have the option to run at 60hz.
Relevant specs are as follows:
Intel i5 CPU @ 3.3ghz (4 CPUs)
8GB ram
Nvidia GeForce GTX 770 graphics card
Dell U2312HM Monitor

My Specs are :
Windows 10 64bit
Asus H170 Pro Gaming Motherbaord
16gb DD4 Kingston Hyperfury Ram 2666mhz
Core i7 6700 3.4ghz - 4ghz Turbo
Corsair RM850i Modular PSU
240Gb Samsung 850 EVO SSD
Coolermaster Hyper 212X CPU Cooler
Western Digital 1TB
Stryx GTX 950 Graphics card
Thermaltake V71 Case ( huge ) with plenty fans
I believe my rig to be powerful enough to play the latest games. and the fans on the GTX 950 do not come on
until it reaches a certain temp. Not sure what, but they do work.
And I play Assassins creed Syndicate, COD Black Ops 3, and I play Crysis 3 in Nvidia 3D Vision and Star Wars Battlefront.
Whatever game I play whether in 3D or NOT my Graphics card will Heat up to 99 and 100 Degrees Celsius.
I even use MSI Afterburner to turn fans up to 100% when playing and it will still heat up that much and its brand new and like my PSU the fans only work when it reaches a certain temp and I have tried both methods of Auto and Manual with the same result with 99-100 degrees Celsius!

My laptop have an Intel HD 3000 integrated graphics processor. I have 2GB ram and i am planning to upgrade it to 8GB as my laptop supports upto 8GB( 4GB*2).Now I have only 64MB dedicated graphics memory and around 700 MB shared memory. I wish to know if I can increase my graphics shared or dedicated memory after increasing my RAM . My BIOS does not allow to do it .

I have recently purchased a new 4k television and sometimes plug my laptop via an HDMI cable to it for gaming. When I connect, the desktop is zoomed in and some games do not run because of this.. Now I had this issue with a standard 1080p TV, it was a simple fix of adjusting the Change the size of text ,apps and other items slide bar under settings/system/display. Games would start working and thedesktop would resume its normal size. But with this 4k TV, the Change of size of text bar and not selectable along with a number of other options, like resolution (I have to do this via the Intel Graphics Control Panel. Some games do not like working whilst the desktop is set to zoom

I have a MSI GS60 ghost pro gaming laptop which has Intel HD graphics 4600 and Nvidia GTX970M GPU, CPU i7 4720HQ, running Windows 10. I study abroad, several months ago i went back home and plugged-in my laptop to the TV via HDMI for gaming like normal. Yesterday i bought an ASUS VC239H external monitor and tried to do the same thing, but there is no HDMI input signal, the Laptop cannot detect the monitor (include display settings, intel HD graphics settings, nvidia settings). This is what i tried:
- Fn+f2, Fn+f8 keys, windows P switching to duplicate or extend or anykind of options
- plug the monitor into my friend's laptop with windows 8 through that HDMI cable and it works fine, the same with other laptop running windows 7==> cable and monitor are normal
- plug my laptop to my neighbor's smart TV. There was ''connected' symbol which appears on the TV but black screen instead of image, Laptop couldn't detect the TV
- reinstalling nvidia and onboard-graphics drivers and update to the latest
- Made a clean install of windows, tried windows 8 also but the same result
- Updated my BIOS and EC
- Bought an adapter HDMI-Mini Displayport to use the mini displayport with HDMI cable
nothing works

Ok so I recently updated to Windows 10 but now when I connect my laptop to my external monitor the laptop screen doesn't show up on the external monitor.
My laptop's screen is broken so I can't see anything. The laptop is still on the screen immediately after updating so I could blindly work my way through the update screens, but someone would have to upload pictures of the screens immediately after updating to Windows 10.

after installing windows 10 (clean install) my laptop completely freezes, so far happend only while playing games. This is possibly related to nvidia gpu, because basicaly nothing else uses it. I dont get any error or bsod and nothing in the event log, it just hangs with the "bzzz" sound and i have to restart.
Games a tried playing are heroes of the storm and rocket league, got freezes playing both. Time it takes to freeze is random sometimes 10minutes and sometimes 3 hours.
Heres some HW info [URL].....

I just installed Windows 10. Now my laptop monitor won't work - only the external monitor. I go to Graphic setting and click on multiple displays, but it states it doesn't see another device only the external monitor. Tried disconnecting the external monitor and rebooting, but the laptop display still doesn't turn on.

I'm running a 64 bit Windows 10 laptop. On idle, the System process is showing a high memory usage of more than 150 MB, usually more than 200 MB. Using poolmon the pooltag SpDN showed up with a memory leak. It leads to the Intel Matrix Storage Manager driver, iaStorV.sys. How should I go about fixing the problem?

I have an HP DV4 Laptop(i5, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD) that came with Windows 7, I recently updated to Win10. Everything seems fine except of the high CPU usage in System and Compressed memory. I narrowed it down to the Realtek Memory Card reader. I should also mention that right after the Win10 update two Realtek Memory Card Reader entries were in Device Manager with yellow exclamation icons.
I deleted them and had Windows install the drivers from Windows updates, after that everything LOOKS fine. And there's only one entry now.After a while I noticed the fan making a lot of noise, wasn't like that in Win7.Anyway, after hours of troubleshooting I eventually came back to the Realtek reader, sure enough after disabling it CPU went to normal.I have also downloaded the newest driver from realtek site.

I have reported it (and others) on the Nvidia forums. Doesn't seem to happen for light gaming for 5 minutes or so (and of course won't happen after playing solitaire) but after heavy gaming (Battlefield Hardline, the free Star Wars beta) for 30 minutes or so, after exiting most of the start menu is often blank. Takes a reboot to get it back.
I do not believe it's corruption issues on my OS or hardware issues. Things I've done:
1) SFC/scannow no issues
2) Ran this "Get-appxpackage -all *shellexperience* -packagetype bundle |% {add-appxpackage -register -disabledevelopmentmode ($_.installlocation + "appxmetadataappxbundlemanifest.xml")} to reregister icons.
3) Did a rebuild of the icon cache
4) Did extensive memory tests - all passed.
5) Turned off "game mode" in Antivirus

Is there any way to Uninstall Xbox app & Live Gaming from Win10? When I try to install/run game 'Halo2' on Win10 its refuses saying there is already a Live Gaming account running (Halo2 uses Live Gaming itself). I suspect the Xbox app (which also uses Live Gaming) is to blame for this. As I don't use or need the Xbox app can it be removed?

I tried Windows 10 and found that Guild Wars 2 had such bad lag that it was unplayable. I had a ping of 1360 as one point when it had been in the 60-80 range previously. Internet web pages took painfully long to load. I have an excellent ISP and have never had complaints about internet access before. In searching forums I read that Window 10 has issues with data packet loss, excessive lag, etc. I went back to Windows 7 and this fixed the lag issue with Guild Wars 2 and Web Pages load instantly again, so I know Windows 10 was causing the problem. Windows 10 is safe for online gaming yet?

Recently upgraded to Win10 pro 64bit. I have an ASUS HD7770-1GD5 video card running both a 26in HD wide monitor as well as a 17in square non HD monitor. Duplicating the screen content on both is what I need. Somehow I had this working great in Win 7, but I must have something set wrong, as the content on both monitors now is indeed the same, but the square screen displays in landscape mode which makes it difficult to see. The clarity of the wide screen monitor is much less than optimal as well. What are the correct settings for this type of setup? I have the widescreen connected via HDMI cable and the older square LCD monitor is connected from the DVI output to a VGA adapter for the monitor.

I upgraded to Windows 10 about a month ago, aside from the learning a new system issues I haven't had many problems. I first noticed issues with accessing my secondary drive (URL...), then the programs started hanging up. Within the last week or so my computer's memory usage has been been at 98% and up. So much so that just switching from one program to another takes several seconds and opening a new program almost shuts down my computer.
Processor: Intel Core i5-3330 CPU @ 3.00 GHz 3.00 GHz
RAM: 8.00 GB (7.89 GB usable).
System type: 64-bit Operating System, x64-based processor

So I recently had to reinstall Windows 10 to resolve an issue I was having, so my Nvidia drivers were deleted in that process. When I went to turn my computer back on after i was finished, there was no display on the screen so I took out my GPU and plugged the VGA into the integrated graphics and it worked fine. This just made me think I have to install the Nvidia drivers again but then I found out that you need the GPU in your computer to install the drivers, but My display won't work anymore with the GPU inside and no drivers for it.

I've been trying to get the new graphical boot menu, but the system insists on showing me the old style Windows 7 menu.
What's more I couldn't get into the Advanced Startup stuff which allows System Reset and stuff like that until I did an in-place reinstall (using setup.exe).
I think this started when I used EasyBCD to add a "Safe Mode" boot to the list, but now I can't get it to go back the way it was.

I upgrade my Win7 Pro to Win10 Pro last night and lost my 3840x2160x30 setup, being reduced back to 1980x1200. I've since done a clean install and reinstalled the latest drivers for my Samsung U28D590D and My ATI Radeon HD 5770.Nothing i have done has given me back my 4K resolution.

I am cleaning out and setting up an old-ish PC and whenever I connect it to my TV or Monitor it says either "No Input to TV" or it is just black when I turn it on, I am using VGA to connect it, I tried with a GTX 650 and with just the built in graphics, and still no luck, any reason why?

When I am doing something that is moving on the screen, including moving the mouse,having a loading bar move or a blinking cursor, my screen is fine. However, once nothing on the screen is moving for about 2-3 seconds, the screen becomes corrupted and a graphical mush. Once I move something again, like my mouse, the screen goes black for a second then returns to normal, as if nothing has happened. The display will not update itself out of this issue if a key is pressed on the keyboard, unless that prompts another screen, like ctrl+alt+delete.
