So I had this computer for a month but my charger broke so I got a new one that provided more watts, when I started to use my computer again. My computer wouldn't charge but instead stayed at 0% and my CPU and disk would spike ALOT when I went to use rocket League I would go to the main menu and the graphics would be extremely bad and the fps at 10 and under previously I would run it at 100. Also my ram would barely be used, I had 7.9 available and I'd only use 1.3.
My specs
-8GB RAM
- Quad Intel(R) Core (TM)i7-5500U CPU 2.4 ghz
-Intel (R) HD Graphics 5500
-NVIDIA GeForce 920M
-Dell Inspiron
Overall my computer has been slow too, I can be on the main menu of civ 5 and if I try to open anything in another tab it'll take way to long.While doing games too my disk would spike to 0%-10%-14% and keep doing this. Any ideas what my problem is and any soulutions?

Sounds like the charger that you are using now isn't appropriate for the laptop, and it is kicking down to using integrated graphics instead of the 920m. Buy the right charger.

You think that can effect the disk efficiency?
