I'm having issues trying to play Valorant since my dad's PC was updated to Windows 11. I used to enjoy the game back in 2021-2022 without problems, but now it shows me some warnings. When I start the game, I see a warning about my graphics driver being outdated, specifically saying:
1) WARNING: known issues with graphics driver
- I have an NVIDIA GeForce GT610 with version 388.13 installed, but the recommended version is 441.20.
2) During gameplay, I'm getting 'Low Client FPS' and 'High Average Ping'.
3) There's also a pop-up before the game closes stating that VANGUARD needs UEFI secure boot enabled. My BIOS is UEFI, but the Secure Boot State is off. Can someone please help me fix this so I can get back to gaming?

It sounds like your graphics drivers are outdated, and that's the source of the problem. I recommend downloading GeForce Experience if you haven't already. It should allow you to easily install the latest graphics drivers for your NVIDIA card. Make sure to follow the prompts and let it do the updates for you!
I had a similar issue! If you don't see the option to update on the website, try launching the NVIDIA app as an administrator or look for the driver page for your specific model on NVIDIA's site.
