My System
Operating System: Windows 8.1 (64-bit)
System Manufacturer: LENOVO
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4710HQ CPU @2.50GHz (8 CPUs), ~2.5GHz
Memory: 16384 RAM
Direct X Version: DirectX 11
Graphic Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 860M, 12GB Memory
I have been having problems with my graphic card for a couple of days now. Starting from the beginning, I was playing League of Legends and I had this game crash. I thought it was just a normal bugsplat and I couldn't seem to get back into a game after getting this pop-up notification saying "Unknown DirectX problem, make sure that your video card supports the system" and stuff. I didn't screenshot this so I tried to delete some files in the game file, as suggested in most of the threads in the forums of the game website. It didn't work so I tried reinstalling the game but it didn't work as well.
After some researching, I tried to reinstall my graphic card. I thought it worked for a few minutes, but then it came a screeching sound that goes "EEEEEEE" and my screen froze and the game crashed. I tried a few times but it just kept crashing. There was a pop-up notification that goes "Display driver NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, Version 358.50 stopped responding and has successfully recovered."
I went to have a System Restore, to a point where it was "healthier" a couple weeks ago. It worked for a game where I was able to select NVIDIA graphic card to play, but then soon after I couldn't use it again.
So I went to the NVIDIA Control Panel and tried to see if everything was in place. I could change my Global Settings and my Program Settings to High-performance NVIDIA processor, and I could see that the applications were using the graphic card. But after I tried once on another game, I could not use it again after attempting to reenter the game, saying that I have "no privilege to select graphics processor in this menu" and lets me have the option to open my NVIDIA Control Panel. But soon after, I tried to open the NVIDIA Control panel by right clicking on the Windows homescreen, and I get this pop-up that says "NVIDIA Display settings are not available. You are not currently using a display attached to an NVIDIA GPU."
I am not sure if it was just my NVIDIA graphic card spoiled or that it was something in my system that is the problem.
I am not sure what to do now. I am not a guy who's really good with tech. I might have missed out something. I hope that someone answers my question because I'm getting frustrated to be able to get my laptop to do what I could do a week ago.
Kind Regards.
