Windows Update improved graphics but lowered preformance


Recommended Posts

Posted

In the latest, "Windows Update," I've noticed that many graphics have become

smooth and nice (Especially in 3D). But in cost it really lowers the

preformance of Windows Media Center to a frame rate that is really terrible.

I like to watch TV on my computer and this becomes very annoying. I can use

system restore to revert the change, but is there any way that I can keep the

change (cause it really looks nice) but not have the annoying frame rate drop?

Hi there,

 

I am assuming you took an optional driver update for whatever OS you are

running which is really not a good idea unless you like problems.

 

If so the driver smoothens the view and drops performance so your answer is

no you can not revert keeping the smooth looks and keeping the previous

performanc since both are arranged by the driver.

 

Boot last known good configuration or Use system restore.

 

Taking driver update from windows update is really not a good idea unless

you like having problems. An excpetion is there for MS hardware.

 

If your hardware works fine leave it be working fine.

If a driver update is needed because the hardware does not funtion well you

should download an appropite driver at the manufacturers website.

 

Best regards,

Michel Denie

I'll use system restore, and I'll be sure not to install those updates.

Thanks for your help. :)
