This will be a longer post , so i apologize in advance , and since English is not my native language
i'll try as much to be understandable.
Every problem i had on my laptop was fixed by searching through the tomshadrware forum , so now it's time for me to ask for help. When i bought my laptop (the specs will be below) everything was so super fast and awesome, i used to run bioshock infinite on high/ultra high , skyrim was on all maxed out , saints row 4 was low/normal etc Now , well not really now , actually for the past months none of that could happen again. What caused me to notice this? Well i was installing some older games long time ago i used to play like dishonored. I started playing and noticed that i had to lower the settings so much that it really didn't look that good. But maybe i was wrong so i installed skyrim to test it , skyrim now lags when i play it on low. All of this research was started because i couldn't run Wildstar on ultra low , whic is all pixelated and stuff. My question here (which you probably guessed already) is , why is this happening ? I posted some screenshots of what could be helpfull , if you need more info on anything just ask , i would really like to get this resolved.

In the preview of the post i did not see pictures showing so i will just post them as links
This is my current hdd sentinel state of my hard drive

Thank you in advance!

Go into libraries and right click on your hard drive, then look in the options it should be there.
