    [Help] Game related problems


    Just a few days ago, I did a reset on my laptop (Reinstallation of windows) to clear up space and fix a resolution issue I had. After the reset, I continued on redownloading my games, applications, etc. But when I played my games, I realized something, my games would have some sort of input lag issue wherein if I tap a movement key, it thinks Im holding it or sometimes it doesnt even think I pressed it. Then after a minute or two, it goes back to normal, then it comes back (the input lag issue).


    I assume its not a keyboard problem because, when I unplugged my keyboard and tried to use the laptop keyboard, it had the same issues.

    Running the games as administrator seems to have "fixed" the problem but some of the games I play dont allow them running on administrator so they crash.

    So, I then assumed its a problem with either my laptop or my windows because, before I did the reset, I didnt have these problems (even though it seems that my performance on the games slightly increased after the reset)


    I kindly ask for any help available from anyone who has solutions.

    :)
