Hey guys. Having a problem with some games that I'm playing via Steam. Fallout 4 used to run flawlessly on my PC. One day, I turned it on and noticed that the graphics settings had been dropped to low. The framerate was also completely horrendous. The performance now is horrible.

Any ideas on what might have caused this? Tried uninstalling and reinstalling. No good.

Bonus points: My computer seems to dislike when I type too many keys at one time. It'll sometimes ignore the input and make a distressed sound. Can be frustrating when trying to type fast or play games. Any idea what's up with that?

This is also now occurring with Wolfenstein: The New Order

Thats your problem, you need a discrete graphics card if you want to to run Fallout 4 on your pc.

Discrete? It was running fine before and then all of the sudden it just started up with the slowdowns
