Yes. Because some games work only with proper privileges. This can get complicated on NTFS.

Many thx for your suggestions.

Yes, I think the card is the weak point here or better the weak driver support. My next laptop will definitely have a AMD card. But I have absolutely no idea which one is good enough to handle actual games with full details and usable fps. I don't expect Desktop like experience but at least 40 fps with full details in an actual game would be fine. Im not a professional gamer, but when I have the time to play, it should be fun and not frustrating. Mostly I do coding with VSCode and some database stuff in different flavors. So a not to small display is a must have.

Can you recommend a good GPU? For the rest I can do my own research...
