Windows 8 Stutters / Lags on Video Playback

Question

Ever Since i switched to Windows 8 i have been facing issues this is one of the most annoying issues i am having Whenever i play uncompressed files Made from FRAPS / DXTORY the video stutters with Choppy audio with it tried VLC / Media player/ Media player classic / KLITE MEGA CODEC PACK / SHARK 007 Windows 8 Codecs nothing Helped

Another Issue is When i Try To Play HTML 5 video on VIMEO using GOOGLE CHROME the video stutters with choppy audio similarly like uncompressed videos which i mentioned above but the Same video with Flash Player works fine

I am totally out of ideas and solution or i will have to switch back to windows 7 i have tried old and new NVIDIA DRIVERS as well

My Pc Specs are

Intel i5 3570k Asrock Z77 Extreme 6 8GB RAM GTX 570 with Latest Drivers

Solution

Have you downloaded the drivers compatible with windows 8 or are you using the windows 7 ones?

I was also having that issue and I had to reinstall the video card driver.

The solution that worked for me was to uninstall the graphics driver and let windows update find and install graphics driver for me.
