Hi all, So Ive had this laptop for about 6 months and I decided to factory reset my machine. Unluckily it uninstalled everything and Ive reinstalled windows 8 back on. (My RAM also went bad and had to replace that) However, now that I have steam and everything going the games I play can no longer play on higher quality and my frame rate is literally cut in half of what it used to be.

Is this an easy fix or what am I to do? I am at a loss at the moment.
 
I presume your model is the one with the Nvidia 630M in?

If so, have you downloaded and installed the drivers? Might be a silly question, but yknow...
 


Yes I have the Nividia 630M in, and I reinstalled all the drivers. I guess I should've mentioned that.
