Heyo!
It's me again in the 'help-me-with-my-garbage-ass-laptop-shit' mood.
As some of you know, I have got my laptop back after almost a year of being borked.
This is the laptop I've used to land all the stunts I have released previously.
But that's not the problem. The problem is my games (GTA, Minecraft) keep freezing and / or lagging.
They used to be fine. And I have no clue what I can change about this. Both games have minimal settings. Pretty much everything is low, off or minimal. But yet Minecraft lags like shit. And GTA SA, both SA:MP AND SP keep freezing every now and then.
If you have a suggestion which could be a solution, and is not difficult to do for someone with only dry grass in his head, I'd greatly appreciate that.
Also, please don't let me buy new shit. I have no life and no work. Meaning, no money. I'll get work later, but for now, I just need a solution. Maybe it's something with drivers or so. But I know 0/0 about that.
So, let me know if you have a suggestion I could try out to fix this. And I will love you forever.
Regards,
Oversized.

What do you expect from a laptop, it's always with those cheaper ones, that one day they just somehow change and aren't as powerful as they used to be. If you wanna play games, buy a PC instead, laptops aren't for gaming, whatsoever.

Minecraft takes alot of your RAM man

Do you have OptiFine installed to your Minecraft? That increases your MC performance by a lot!

I am aware of this, but it ran smooth in the past, so I don't know what happend that made it all laggy and such.

I do not. But like I said, I ran smooth in the past. Even without optifine installed. I will try to install this and hope it fixes the Minecraft issue. If it does, I still have the GTA freezing problem. Got anything for that?
Thanks for replying guys. I really do appreciate the help.

Try uninstalling useless shit. Maybe your PC went full with crap and its slow because of that. Or maybe it's a virus that you're dealing with. Run Malware Bytes full scan and see if it gives any results.

I found a decent place to download Optifine as you suggested. But which one should I download?

Also, with 'useless crap' I am not sure what you're refering to.
This laptop is pretty empty and only has 1 page of installed stuff.

I am not sure what my laptop needs in order to do the things it used to do, so I don't take any risks with deleting stuff. At least not stuff what I'm not sure of.

Always download the newest version of OptiFine, unless it says something like Beta version or unstable.

That's like one of the best gaming laptops possible, but Nem has almost as good PC.

Well, actually way better PC, but whatever. :)

After doing this, and putting the settings low, off and minimal, the lag stayed.
So I have observed this problem for a bit and came to the conclusion it's not the games which lag.
I think it's the laptop doing this. Without lag I get around 70 - 80 FPS on GTA SA SP. And 50-ish on Minecraft.
I still think it's something with a driver or my graphic something. Do you guys know where I can find a list which shows what drivers are outdated?
I can't see what changed since I got my laptop back. Something inside of this laptop was removed and I am not 100% sure if that might be the problem.
If needed, I can post the specs in a little bit.
Thanks for the help so far guys. Much appreciated.

Edit: Also this thing seems to take forever which used to be quick before. Maybe there's a link?
