Hey everyone,

 

I recently upgraded my laptop from Windows 10 to Windows 11 and also decided to increase the RAM from 4GB to 8GB. While I was expecting a smoother and improved experience, I've been facing some compatibility issues since the upgrade. I'm hoping to get some guidance and suggestions from the community on how to resolve these problems.

 

Here are the specific issues I'm encountering:

 

Slow Performance: Ever since the upgrade, my 8gb ram laptop window 11 seems to be running slower than before. Basic tasks like opening applications or browsing the internet take longer than they used to. It's frustrating, especially considering the RAM upgrade should have improved performance.

 

Software Compatibility: Some of the software applications I regularly use are now experiencing compatibility issues with Windows 11. They either crash unexpectedly or fail to launch altogether. I've tried reinstalling them, but the problem persists.

 

Driver Compatibility: Another issue I've noticed is that certain drivers are no longer working properly with the new operating system. My graphics driver, in particular, seems to be causing problems, leading to graphical glitches and occasional crashes.

 

I've attempted a few troubleshooting steps on my own, such as updating drivers and running system diagnostics, but so far, I haven't had much luck in resolving these issues. I'm hoping that someone in the community has experienced similar problems or might have some suggestions on how to tackle them.

 

Has anyone else encountered compatibility issues after upgrading to Windows 11 or after increasing the RAM? If so, how did you address these issues? Are there any specific settings or updates I should be aware of? Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thank you in advance for your help!

 

Best regards,
