Lag Problems

When I installed a driver called "RAGE FURYâ„¢ PRO" from Microsoft Update. When
I restarted my PC, my display was low quality and enlarged, so I removed the
program in Add/Remove Programs. My computer is back to normal, yet when I'm
scrolling or moving a form window, it lags. In the Device Manager, there's
something called "Video Controller (VGA Compatible)" with a huge "!" on the
icon.

If you need more information, tell me. Please help me!

You need to install the correct drivers. Your mistake was that you took
the drivers from Windows Update which you should never do. You might
try rolling the drivers back first:

If that doesn't work, get the correct drivers from:

1. The device mftr.'s website; OR
2. The motherboard mftr.'s website if hardware is onboard; OR
3. The OEM's website for your specific machine if you have an OEM
computer (HP, Dell, Sony, etc.).

Read the installation instructions on the website where you get the
drivers.

To find out what hardware is in your computer:

1. Read any documentation you got when you bought the computer.
2. If the computer is OEM, go to the OEM's website for your specific
model machine and look at the specs (you'll be there to get the drivers
anyway)
3. Download, install and run a free system inventory program like Belarc
Advisor. The older Aida32 is good for this, too.
