It was working fine but then after I try to invite a friend to play a custom map it started lagging. Even in the menu. It also said I had new hardware but I have not changed my hardware ever. I tried updating Nvidia GeForce Game Ready Driver to 373.06 (I have a GTX 960M) but that made it worse as the lag makes it hard to do anything. the ships on the main menu freeze then teleport then repeat. Please fix this!
Should be running ok on a 960M with a little lower settings… maybe not perfect on all maps but certainly playable. It sounds like the game is switching to your integrated graphics, so make sure the game isn’t using your integrated graphics instead of the 960M. This is a drop-down option in the Nvidia control panel.

Never had a problem with stuff like this before but in my control panel it has a 3D Settings Task in that task there is 3 options: Adjust image settings with preview, Manage 3D settings and Set PhysX Configuration. In Manage 3D settings the drop-down box under Global Settings has 3 choices: Auto-Select, High-performance NVIDIA processor and Integrated Graphics. Is that what you mean by the drop-down box? If so I assume the High Performance NVIDA processor is the one. (Currently set to Auto-Select)
Yeah, well I never had a first-person shooter on PC where I couldn’t change the field of view either. Welcome to Microsoft games. Put it on High-performance Nvidia Processor and hit apply to use your 960M on all your games globally, and report back if it’s fixed or not (because I’m curious and others might have the same issue). You’re never going to want to use the integrated graphics instead of that anyway, so this will make sure you are always using your 960M… whether it fixes this issue or not. You’ll have to relaunch the game for Nvidia control panel changes to take affect.
Well aside from making the quality go down that did nothing…
Also I found a button in the menu under it and it show just the 960M. The option is called CUDA - GPU

Setting your PC to use your superior NVIDIA GPU instead of the integrated INTEL HD Graphics does not make quality go down, quite the opposite. You paid extra to have a 960M in that laptop, so you want to use it with all of your games, not the weaker default integrated. CUDA - GPU should be set to (All) for the 960M in Nvidia Control Panel.
I still think Halo is using your integrated graphics if the performance is as bad as you claim. Try adding Halo 5 exe to the Nvidia control panel in the program settings tab and make sure it’s using the 960M there also. Other than that, I’m afraid I can’t help any further and I doubt anyone else will answer. Good luck, Spartan.
Well now 2 out of 3 problems are fixed!
- Ships at main menu -Yoink!- but still act as if normal
- Top 3rd of screen no longer lag behind the rest of the game
- Still have to much lag to play… This is probably 343’s fault but could be NVIDIA and I doubt my computer is the reason as I can play Crysis on high graphics at 10 FPS and medium at 60 FPS.
Thank you Starship Ghost for the help with the first 2 problems and giving me part of an idea on what to do if I encounter this type of thing again!
I have too run into this problem, I think has something to do with a new update with nvidia. My game worked fine 2 weeks ago but now has massive stuttering problems almost as if it seems like my PC can’t handle it but it obviously can cause it was 2 weeks ago.

Please look at Starship Ghost’s posts and try them
He has a GTX 970, so he’s not on a laptop… unless he meant to say 970M and figures they are both the same. You guys could also try using DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) and uninstalling the NVIDIA driver. Then going into GeForce Experience and doing a “clean” install of the latest driver. Always do custom/clean when you update. The clean option is a checkbox. It will wipe NVIDIA control Panel settings that you changed back to default, though.
