Hi guys, I'm not an expert or anything in computers, i only know the very basic regarding software problems so I'll try to explain. My laptop (toshiba satellite p50) had a problem with the monitor and it was replaced. I got it 2 days ago and it was very slow, i assumed the laptop needed some updates, so i updated my graphics card ( geforce gt 745M ) and i checked for windows updates. But nothing really works. I used to play League of Legends and I always has over 80 FPS now it wont go over 40. Also this appeared today while i was trying to play to test if the fps was still low "Display driver stopped responding and has recovered". I have no idea what to do, so any help would be great. Thank you!
( btw im using windows 10 )

do the below, but you'll also want to check your nvidia control panel settings and make sure it's actually using the GPU and not the integrated graphics chip on the CPU.

If you have graphics or driver issues, one of the most common fixes is a clean uninstall and removal of your graphics drivers.

To uninstall your drivers, first download and run Display Driver Uninstaller, and follow it's recommendations of booting into safe mode and ect.

You'll download a compressed file called "[Guru3D.com]-DDU.zip"
Right click and choose extract.
Go into the folder and run the DDU v##.##.exe
This will...

Right click and choose extract.
Go into the folder and run the DDU v##.##.exe
This will extract more files to this folder.
Run Display Driver Uninstaller.exe
Choose Yes when it asks you to boot into SafeMode.
After you've rebooted into safe mode.
When DDU comes up, if it hasn't selected your GPU manufacturer (Nvidia/AMD/Intel) then choose it from the drop down list
Press the Clean and Restart option
If a window comes up asking to disable the Windows automatic installation of display drivers click yes.

After (or before removing the old drivers, just put the new ones on the desktop or somewhere handy) rebooting back into Windows, manually download the latest drivers from Nvidia or AMD, don't use auto detect, choose you GPU model and OS from the drop down lists.
