  3. TEAM FORTRESS 2 LAGS AND IS VERY SLOW!

    Hi Kevin,



    Thank you for your interest in Windows 10.

    We understand that, you face issues with gaming on Windows 10 and I'd be certainly help you.



    This issue could occur due to the corrupted and incompatible display adaptor or graphic card drivers.

    Before we proceed, answer these queries, for a better understanding of your issue:

    • Does the issue occur with only this game?
    • Do you get any error message?
    Method 1:

    If the issue occurs with only this game, then the issue might be occurring with the compatibility of the game with Windows 10.

    I would suggest you to uninstall the Team Fortress 2
    game software and reinstall the latest Team Fortress 2
    game software in compatibility mode and check, if it works.

    Let’s follow these steps to install the Team Fortress 2
    game software in compatibility mode.

    1. Download the latest Team Fortress 2
    game software from the manufacturer’s website.

    2. Right-click on the setup file and click on "Properties".

    3. Click on the ‘compatibility’ tab and check the box "Run this program in compatibility mode” and select previous Operating System from the drop down.

    4. Click on ‘Apply’ and click ‘OK’ and run the file to install it.

    Method 2:

    If the issue occurs with all games, then I would suggest you to uninstall the graphics card driver and install the latest driver from the manufacturer website.

    Refer to the following steps to uninstall the graphic card driver from the Device Manager.

    a. Click on Windows key + X and then, select Device Manager.

    b. Locate and expand “Display Adaptor” in the Device Manager Window.

    c. Right-click on the “Display Adaptor” and click on “uninstall" the graphic card driver.

    d. Restart the computer and check, if it works.

    For more information, refer to the section “Using Compatibility Mode to Resolve Driver problems”
    in the article link, mentioned below:
