Hello guys.. I've decided to format my laptop because **** installed on it.....
Re-intalled with W7 professional, x64 bit. Installed all necessary drivers..
Everything works fine, but i got really big problem.. Games performance isnt as before.. Example is Euro Truck Simulator 2... I driving and i see 40 fps... Few seconds later its drop like 7-10 fps :pfff:.

You said you updates all necessary drivers, but did you download the chipset firmware and everything else from the motherboard manufacturer website? Did you update .Net framework? Latest security updates from Windows Update? SP1?

Sounds like the laptop is not using the dual graphics properly, if you installed the video card drivers from nVidia, uninstall those and install the ones from the laptop vendor support page. You may need to run the driver wipe utility to clear things out.
