Uninstall and reinstall display card in device manager and check if it's updated to the latest version.

Could try System restore if it was working earlier.

R u playing games online?In that case uninstalling firewalls may help.

All the BEST buddy

Still not helpful. Take a look at the back, top, sides, front & bottom of the PC for identificable labels and/or any other markings.

This graphic card will have great diffulculty running any of the modern 3D games released in the two or three years.
