random performance drop

ok im not very good with computers but yea pritty much i play leauge of legends on my mx17 r2 works fine 99% of the time this is the second time its done this to me. usually i get like 150fps or something stupid but recently ive only been gettnig 14-30 fps now the only things ive installed on to this computer is google chrome firefox aion and leauge of legends rest has been windows updates.

i was wondering what my performance drop could come from the last time it happened it fixed its self but i dont wanna wait like 2 weeks again

Thought I read a similiar post on the Alienware Arean site. Did you check the "stealth" button on the main screen. I think someone said it is on the right hand side. I just tried to find the post again but didn't.
