All games stuttering and crashing after windows 10 upgrade!

[DuleTnT]

First of all, English is not my native language, so please forgive me if I write something stupid.

As the title says - literally all games I have on my computer are stuttering and even crashing since last windows 10 upgrade and NVIDIA drivers update.

It is very irritating. The worse case is Deus Ex Human Revolution which is not demanding game at all and which was very very smooth with constant 60fps with v-sync on before, but now fps cant reach 10 fps and it's completely unplayeble!
I don't know what is wrong. This is good computer. All other games are also problematic - stuttering and crashing and even texture pop-in in some games!
These things should not happen!

My system:
ASUS ROG G750 Series G750JX-DB71 Gaming Laptop
Intel Core i7 4700HQ (2.40GHz) - 4 cores, 8 logical processors.
16GB Memory 1TB HDD 256GB SSD
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770M 3GB GDDR5 17.3"

Windows 10, 64 bit.

Please, any idea, advise, help.... I would appreciate it very much. Thanks.

Back-up the files you need/want and then clean install Win 10....plenty of instructions on net to do this...

Oh boy, that is the answer I always afraid of the most 😞
I have more than 500 GB of projects (some of my 3D maya, adobe after effect and other video files and projects) It would be a huge mess to go through all that...

Is there any other solution??

Actually, I have only few programs installed on this laptop graphich programs like Maya, Adobe after effect, sony vegas pro, FL studio 12, antivirus, browsers, ccleaner.... and few games.
And that's it - nothing else. So I don't understand what can cause these problems....

Well I can never be 100% sure from here of course...but sounds to me like you're solution to be honest.

They always say this somewhere in small letters but upgrades can and do regularly scr*w up the OS. Always have to backup before doing them.

I have run the win 7 to win 8 upgrade multiple times to check OC performance because I noticed it degraded the OS. Even needed higher voltage to run upgraded OS compared to fresh install so upgrading definitely fries plenty of stuff quite often.:(

Before that you can of course try lesser things like uninstalling video drivers with DDU (run in safe mode) and then reinstall Nvidia driver....driver only no 3D stuff and no Geforce experience....driver and PhysX I do...

I guess I should try reinstalling drivers.
And if that doesn't work, i guess reinstalling windows itself

clean install fixes 99% of the problems

The upgrade path is not the way to go with a gaming rig, period.
You may want to scan your PC for a virus and other potential malware.
Check your running processes and CPU usage to see if any other programs are resource hogs.
