Hello,
I recently upgraded my Windows XP machine to Windows 8 due to my web design needs. Since installing Win8, it seems to have installed a different graphics card. I'm on a laptop so it's the standard built in Mobile Intel Accellerate series.
When I now try to play any online games, I get around 15-20 FPS whereas before I was getting around 60-100.
When I try to go into my graphics properties/settings, it has no tab to actually access the built in graphics program (where you change 3D, Performance) etc.
The new graphics adaptor which was installed when win8 was loaded is: Mobile Intel 4 Series Express Chipset Family (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM 1.1)
Is there a way to possibly get my previous graphics card and it's settings? Like I said I did a basic upgrade to win8 and now I can't play any type of online game. If I play the game in a window, the FPS increases and is just about playable.
Can anyone please advise me on the steps to take to get this done?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Kind regards,
Labtec.
