Hi guys.
I am currently having a problem with my PC. I have just reformatted my computer due to some malware. My problem is that for some reason, my windows are now laggy. Whenever I scroll up or down a window, it seems to lag a lot. The computer is running fine but this scroll lag is really annoying.
Does anyone know how to fix it?
Thanks :D

you probably need to reinstall your graphics card drivers.
if youve formatted the pc they would have been wiped off so reinstall them if you havent already
