Acer aspire a515 issue my computer should be able to run low demanding games

Jai0923

For some reason after I am done playing a game on my laptop the entire display starts to bug out. It only happens after I am done playing a game, the games aren't even too demanding and are played on all low setting that my laptop should be able to handle, so I am not sure why this is happening. My laptops specs are Intel Core i7(11 gen),12 GB DDR4 ram, Intel iris xe graphics , I don't know too much about computers but i believe my computer should be able to run low demanding games and not have a problem, so I am not sure why it starts to bug out. Any advice or help ?

I believe Intel Core i7(11 gen),12 GB DDR4 ram is really a very good config..

Note:

 

If you do refresh ( keep my files ) -  all your personal files like pictures, music , documents , videos  will still be intact.   Only the applications will be lost

 

If you do reset  ( remove everything )  - you are doing a factory default.   It will become like a day one computer.    It will wipe out everything and take your computer to day one like a new computer. 

 

 

You can also do the recovery in an alternative way..

 

 

There are two alt keys on the keyboard.  If you look at the bottom row of keyboard you can see the one on the left side of space bar and the other on the right side of space bar.  The alt key on the right side will be looking like alt, alt gr or alt car.  Turn off the computer.  Hold the alt key on the left and tap f10 continuously.   It will go to repair mode.  It will show you chose an option, continue, troubleshoot.   If it is not going to repair mode, turn off the computer.  Turn on the computer.  Hold the right alt key ( alt gr or alt car or alt )  and then tap f10 continuously.  It will go to chose an option continue and troubleshoot..

 

It will show you chose an option, continue, troubleshoot

Go to troubleshoot  -  click on reset this pc

click on keep my files  ( only applications will be lost )   chose your account and type your password   - click on local reinstall  - click on reset

It will be in progress 

 

If the keep my files option is not working 

 

Go to troubleshoot  -  click on reset this pc – click on remove everything – click on local reinstall – just remove my files – click on reset 

It will reinstall windows. 

 

If the just remove my files is not working..

 

Go to troubleshoot  -  click on reset this pc – click on remove everything – click on local reinstall – Fully clean the drive – click on reset 

It will reinstall windows. 

 

Note: You can also go to chose an option , continue , troubleshoot by holding the alt key + tapping f10  or alt gr + tapping f10 on the keyboard while turning on the computer.    Once you see the troubleshoot option, you can stop tapping the f10 and stop holding the alt key.    Then you can try the keep my files and remove everything ( just remove by files and fully clean the drive ) by following the steps which was mentioned above.
