You've experienced the same performance drop when launching games on your recent laptops. It seems the issue is related to GPU usage spikes, especially after starting a game. Whether it's an Intel driver problem or a Windows-related one, you're not alone in facing this challenge. With Windows 11, the symptoms persist, suggesting a potential software or driver fix may be available. Consider checking official updates or reaching out to support for resolution options.

You might need to install the laptop manufacturer's drivers. They are likely outdated but tailored for your switchable graphics setup. Windows 10 should function with Windows 11. Make sure to remove both Intel and your specific GPU brand drivers, then restart the computer before applying the manufacturer's updates.

Thank you for your feedback. It appears the problem persists despite several attempts, and I understand how frustrating this can be.

It's regrettable, but trying might help. Check the manufacturer's website for a BIOS/UEFI update and install it. This could address a firmware problem with the switching system, though I'm not familiar enough with laptop graphics to offer further suggestions.

It includes the most recent BIOS update, thank you for your patience. I'm thinking about switching to Linux and checking if things feel more comfortable.
