  1. Wifi Not Working For Games, But Fine On Other Stuffs. My Laptop Is The Only One Suffering...


    The title briefly explains my entire problem. My laptop is the MSI GF63 Thin 85C, bought it a week ago. Currently running on Windows 10. At first it was fine but after 3-4 days the wifi starts slowing down on GAMES ONLY, and now I can't even seem to run any of my games. The webs are working nicely. I can get access to Youtube, Facebook, Netflix, etc. quickly, in fact. Also, my laptop seems to be the only one that is having trouble, cause I checked other devices and did not see a single problem. The games I have are Rainbow Six Seige, League of Legends, Counter Strike: Global Offensive, Apex Legends and For Honor. I successfully ran the games for about1-2 minutes without lags and after that it just went from 30ms to a few thousand. I don't think the wifi or its location is the problem. I have also tried many methods like updating wifi drivers, reinstalling it, restoring Windows 10, restart Laptop, turning off Firewall, etc. It would be wonderful if someone could assist me on this.
    Thank You.

    I still can't connect to games after the repair. Apparently whenever I run a game, the wifi shuts off (it does not show that, but unable to use wifi while a game is running, but wifi gets back to normal when i exit the game). Do you have any other methods?

    Laptop speakers suddenly not working, but headphones work fine.


    I'm really baffled here as to what's going on with my laptop audio. It was working just a few days ago from what I remember and now tonight when I was playing a game in Steam the audio just wasn't working. Checked audio settings in the game, all was good. Turned the game off and started testing using YouTube, still nothing. The volume is definitely up and I found that headphones work fine. When I open the 'Playback devices' dialogue from right clicking the speaker in the task bar it shows the green equalizer bar moving up and down if something is playing, but there's no audio. I've checked for any conflicting devices in here and ensured everything was enabled as per usual.

    So far I've updated the drivers, uninstalled the drivers completely and reinstalled them (automatically after restarting laptop), and have checked for updates on my computer (all up to date). My device manger does have 2 drivers listed which I thought was weird, but maybe it has always been like this? I'm not sure honestly. I uninstalled both and they both came back after restarting. See the image here:

    Is there anything else to try? I thought uninstalling the drivers and reinstalling them would fix it, but nope.

    System details: Windows 10, Acer Aspire laptop (~7 months old? No issues thus far). Let me know if I need to provide any more details! Very frustrated and need to get to bed now because of work in the morning, but I will be sure to check back and try any suggestions and answer any questions.
