  1. Some games won't open because graphics drivers out of date


    Hello I have a gaming laptop I bought back in 2014 yes I know it's pretty old, it has a GTX 840M graphics card, but when I try to open games like Warzone or GTA 5, when I load GTA 5 it just quits half way through loading no error or nothing, although Warzone loads then crahes with an error telling me the graphics drivers are out of date and tells me to update them, I've installed DDU and uninstalled all my graphics display drivers, I reinstalled the drivers through Nvidia Geforce experience same thing, so I uninstalled them all again and downloaded them through the Nvidia website and well same thing


    I don't know what is going wrong I can load games up Like tf2, valorant and World of warcraft, but these 2 games are just not running on my laptop I could really use some help as my friend is out of options on helping me he has done everything in his knowledge to get me going but still it doesn't work please hopefully someone here can help me

    :)
