WAW. The more frustration is, getting your key-binds back. Or worse, everytime you start it up, it asks you again and you ignore it. And for 90% of the times, no problemo.

If you decide to update your driver and you still have problems after the update, using the "Display Driver Uninstaller" will clean out everything and start fresh. I have tested this on multiple Windows 10 and Windows 7 installs without issue. https://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html Angelz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lately my colors were also really weird. i then had to change my monitor settings to standard and made a few changes, but since i switched on hdmi i can use sRGB again. then the new driver may have fixed my cod4 problems, we'll see in the next few weeks how it goes Angelz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Download this one from MS and see if all of you need to download some MB's.
