hi guys! its been a week since i bought my laptop. it is my first time to have a gaming laptop. i accidentally updated my nvidia gtx 1650 to studio driver. i downloaded DDU knowing from the videos i watched. i did it 5x becoz of the error not compatible with my system, after i thoroughly searched, i downloaded the wrong file, it should be DCH. Now i installed the DCH package but the thing is i feel my laptop is not working properly like something went wrong. i also forgot to make a back up.

should i reset it to factory settings? nothing will happen?
if i reset it to factory settings, it will work fine as my first time to use it?

This should fix your battery issues

1. Right click your desktop-> click Nvidia Control Panel -> Click restore to defaults (restart if needed)
2. In the search bar type-> power -> Power & sleep Settings -> Click Additional power settings (Upper Right) -> Choose Balanced
3. Don't forget to plug-in your laptop to 100%, but do note that when Gaming with battery only, battery life is only 2 to 3 hrs. Hence its always best to be Plugged In when Gaming.

When gaming your battery MUST be charged to 100% BEFORE gaming and KEPT plugged in and on the charger while gaming, if not your CPU will throttle back to approximately half it's speed and your games will lag etc..
