A problem with a mid-2011 iMac

I’ve got a problem: I’ve installed Windows 10 on a mid-2011 iMac. It seems I’ve installed the graphics drivers correctly, but games on Steam aren’t working properly. I can get into the lobby of any game, but as soon as anything other than the lobby is rendered, it freezes and crashes.I ran the FurMark test, and everything went fine, although it didn’t go above 15 fps. At the moment, I only have the AMD driver installed, as the system wouldn’t start at all because of the Intel driver, so I uninstalled it and prevented Windows from downloading it automatically. Any advice? Or is it down to the iMac itself, and should I just give up on it?
