    gta unplayable and freezing on startup after windows update


    Hello

    I have the game gta5 which i sometimes play online, after a big windows update (I believe it was the creators update) I now have a problem where it seems the frame rate drops about 30 seconds into a session, it only drops from 60-around 30 so I don't know why this makes it unplayable but basically it goes all juddery and I lose all control of my character/car etc so it makes it unplayable. Also since the update, about a third of the time the pc freezes on startup for a couple of minutes

    I have done a ton of searches on this, found a number of fixes but none of them has helped, I did find one fix that let me play for 20 minutes or so but then it happened again immediately so it evidently didn't work

    the only other thing I have found as a potential fix is rolling back to a previous version of windows, if I do this will my pc still be secure? Also if I roll back will windows just install the creators update back on there at it's first opportunity?

    Thanks

    :)

    So I just got the GTA 4... and WOW its unplayable on my comp... I can play metro 2033 etc... all gpu intense games pretty much highed up... The problem with gta is that... sometimes after loading very very first game playable bit in the game, it loads to a black screen with minimap and thats it.. and sometimes it loads the whole screen but it freezes for 4 sec.. lets me drive 1 sec and freeze again...

    So please if anybody know any common issues to do with my hardware/gta 4 please let me know.
