Love engine won't update frames

Hey all, I've just began learning how to program and I can't get love to run properly, when I try to run a program (any program using love) I find that the window gets stuck on the fist frame. I think it might be a driver or software issue because I downloaded a game that was made with love and the frames just get suck, the game functions correctly other than the frames don't update. I'm not sure how to fix this issue, dose anyone know what I might try?
-Thanks

If I understood it correctly, he's saying that any game made with Löve doesn't render the frames correctly, therefore posting the code of a specific one won't help much.

@VenumWolf: Can you give use some specs about your PC and OS?

ThePC007,
Yeah, I'm running:

Processor:
Intel Core i7-5500u CPU

Graphics:
Intel HD graphics 5500 APU

RAM:
6 GB

System:
64-bit, x64-based processor
Microsoft windows 8.1

That's all I can really give you about the system. As I have said before everything works as expected, I just have to refresh the window in order for the frames to update. (That gose for any love2d based game.)

Make sure you have the latest possible graphics drivers installed. Also, do other OpenGL-based games (e.g. Minecraft) work for you?

I'm almost certain that I have installed my drivers, I'm honestly not entirely sure how to check, or where to get them. I was thinking that OpenGL might be the problem but Minecraft runs perfectly.

I can confirm that I have the latest graphics drivers and I have .net Framework up to 4.5(3.0,2.0,ext. as well) Could this be caused by Java? If I remember correctly, Love stopped working right around when java installed an update.
