Hello, was referred here by a friend and hoping you can help me out.
I've been having issues with my laptop recently, first noticing when I attempted to install Windows 7 the updates that came with it caused lines on the screen, flashing of the screen, and locking the laptop up. It seems whenever the graphics card is updated to a new driver this happens. I was recommended to update my BIOS by someone, and when I looked into my laptop i began discovering this has been an ongoing issue for others. Im very knowledgeable when it comes to this kind of stuff, so I hope you guys can help me solve it. Im currently trying to run Star Wars: The Old Republic which my laptop passes the required/minimal stuff to run, yet its very choppy when I am running the following:
