hmm idk id avoid hiding updates for too long. Some driver updates include fixes, so check for a newer version from the manufacturer regularly. but hey ymmv
Download the latest driver for ur exact model from the manufacturers support page or through their companion app. Avoid generic drivers for handheld specific parts.
yeahhh use System Restore to go back to a point before the problem started, if u have one. Search for Create a restore point and choose System Restore. good luck man!
lol same thing happened to me my rule now: wait two weeks before buying any gadget that isnt replacing something broken, most impulse wants fade within that time, and the ones that dont are usually worth it. hope that helps :)
