Yesterday i deleted everything from my harddrive and installed windows 7 on new. People said it would make my pc go faster but i can barely play any games now. I used to play games completly fine but my pc had gotten slower so i reinstalled windows. Does anyone know what my problems could be?

You say your PC is slower, is this on overall performance or only in gaming? You're probably missing your graphics or motherboard drivers.

- On your desktop, right click on "Computer" > "Properties"
- On the left menu, choose "Device Manager"
- Check if there's any missing drivers, you'll see a yellow exclamation mark beside the driver
- Update those drivers

Another thing is to try a different copy of Windows and re-install.

Can You install the driver of your computer proper if you install the driver of your system proper and not able to play game so discuss your problem with windows tech support member for solving your problem.

I'm getting the exact same problem... I did the device manager check, and everything seems to be ok.. but i've still got a loss in performance in games.
Any other ideas which could lead to a loss in performance after a completely fresh install of windows?
