I am new to PC gaming, and this is my first gaming PC so I'm a little naive when it comes to knowing everything about it. I have an MSI Katana GF76 11UD. My friend has the same laptop and can run Stalker on medium settings with no issues. When I log in, my game loads and then stutters really bad and I can barely move or do anything, this is on low setting. I've tried a few work arounds, turning things off in settings, but nothing works. Any advice would be much appreciated since I'm a newbie at this, please be easy on me. Thanks.
 
i believe so. i logged onto the nvidia site and updated drivers through that. i ordered some more ram as well to see if that will help.

Looks like there are two different UD versions. One with a clock boost on the GPU and one without. But this shouldn't be causing what you are describing.

It sounds like a driver issue. Do you have nvidia experience installed? that is the best way to get your drivers, its the easiest. As of writing this were on 566.36 for nvidia.

Also I would check your CPU Drivers as well. https://www.intel.com/content/www/u...essor-24m-cache-up-to-4-60-ghz/downloads.html

I doubt updating those drivers will do anything, but who knows.

I would also check your Bios settings-- google things like. "How to check ram speed in Bios" etc etc. "how to make sure XMP enabled" <- this is the overclock profile for your ram.

The problem is, there are so many things to check. You can also check your windows event viewer to see what is kind of going on in the background, you can search it up with google or AI to figure out what might be going on.
 
With the windows event viewer:

reading this tells me something is wonky with my iCUE software, its corsairs RGB things, I use it for my RGB on my ram. And that the iCueDevicePluginhost.exe is faulty, which is for interacting with hardware and other software. Whatever the module SMBCtrl.dll is-- likely something to interact with some hardware-- it shows the stack overflow buffer error, 0xc0000409, tells me where the path is, and that its related to a gigabyte mobo.

I don't have a gigabyte mother board-- so. Its not really a problem.

You can kinda sus out issues and different problems this way. Its probably the plugin, maybe I have it installed.

I did have it installed, I deleted it. Non-problem solved.

so you can do that with your issues as well.
