Hi its been about two weeks since it started. I opened a game and my audio was fine but my screen looked like it was on 2 fps. so i opened my device manager to check if there was something wrong and to my surprise it said that my graphic card was corrupted, so i tried updating my driver but it still wouldnt work. it said windowsfound drivers for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install them. The configuration registry database is corrupt. Also when i ran a scan on my graphic card it said The path %hs does not exist. I tried doing a factory reset but it wouldnt go through.
