I'm having issues with the new build. I have a Radeon 7800 HD, and when I move in game the FPS drops to 10-20fps

I don't know what kind of system you have but you should get the same FPS as a nVidia 760. So the obvious question is to ask if you have disabled on-board graphics from your BIOS motherboard?

killshaot

how do you do that

PhantomBuliT

depends which graphics card you are using, and also what type of system, desktop or laptop. need that information before we can help you killshaot

Access Bios: Either F1, F2, or Delete. There should be several tabs at the top of the screen. The setting you want to change is generally found under the "Advanced" tab, if you have one. Look for "Graphics Configuration" or something similar. Then find "Primary Display Adapter", and change it to "PCI-E", or "PCI Express", if it isn't already set to that. Then save, and exit the Bios.

Example: In my Bios, the setting is located here: "Advanced, SystemAgent Configuration, Graphics Configuration, Primary Display". But like PhantomBuLit said, it depends on what system bios you have.

Also if hes using a laptop, or prebuilt system, there might be a software switch somewhere for this instead of in the bios. IE: on a dell system theres the dell graphics software(or whatever cant remember the name atm) and you have to switch it there.

Also check your power options in windows control panel and make sure its set to high performance.

im only haveing problems with the new build not the old build.

You need to know if your motherboard has an onboard graphics chip which most new ones do. Then do what {NWO}Hawk says to go in your BIOS and disable onboard (integrated) graphics. Turn it off. Then you should have an options tab in your BIOS to enable (turn on) your graphics card. Your card should be listed.

If you don't have a manual for the motherboard then google search the brand and model for one. There's usually a one paragraph instruction on how to disable/enable graphics.

i have a windows7 gateway with intel icore3 if thats any help

IO_i_OI

Maybe the model # of your Gateway Computer will help you find online specs about your Motherboard but you still need a manual or info for your BIOS. Basically you are looking for the BIOS screen that looks like this...



You want to change it to PCI or PCI-e then save before you restart.

Just know that newer Motherboards have more advanced-looking screens but are relatively the same. If you still have trouble then call Gateway to walk you thru it.
