I recently updated my HP Victus 15 laptop and since the update I’ve been facing several performance-related issues. The system has become noticeably slower during normal tasks, startup time has increased, and some applications freeze randomly for a few seconds before responding again.

Laptop Model: HP Victus 15-fa1093dx
Processor: Intel Core i5 13th Gen
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050
Operating System: Windows 11

I have already tried restarting the device, updating drivers, checking startup applications, and running Windows troubleshooting tools, but the issue still continues.

The main problems I’m experiencing include:

  • Slow boot and shutdown times
  • Lag during multitasking and gaming
  • Random freezing in Chrome and Discord
  • Higher fan noise and temperature after update
  • Wi-Fi disconnects after sleep mode

Has anyone else experienced similar issues after recent Windows or BIOS updates on the HP Victus series? I would appreciate any suggestions regarding BIOS rollback, driver fixes, or system optimization.
