Taskbar/window/cursor lag

Question

I'm having this problem on windows 10 where everything that moves and isnt a game really stutters. Things like moving a window, pulling up the taskbar or scrolling websites is very laggy and its really annoying. Another problem I had is that when I'm playing a game the audio sometimes corrupts. Everything was fine before I installed the newest Geforce game ready drivers (version: 536.67).

Nothing online helped me so please help me if you can.
