Hi,

I downgraded my PC to Win7 from Win8 and it was running smoothly until i tried a game in which the FPS (Frames Per Second) rate has dropped by half of what it was on WIn8. I'm thinking it may be a driver issue, maybe i have to download specific drivers for Win7?

This is the first line of the Intel HD Graphics 4000 Hardware ID:
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_0166&SUBSYS_2186103C&REV_09

I'm trying to find the version compatible with WIn7 so i can reinstall the driver. Also if anyone has any other ideas or drivers that i should reinstall to increase FPS please let me know.

Thanks,

You identified the problem, go here to get your drivers. (they are Intel BTW) if it's a laptop and this didn't work, you need to post the make and model so I can find the custom drivers the company made. Good Luck.
