Minecraft framerate drop

framerateminecraft-java-edition

I have an HP Pavilion G6 series.
It has an AMD Vision A4 Dual Core, 6 gbs of RAM and a 750Gb Hard-drive with no dedicated graphics card

Minecraft used to run at around 50 frames with higher settings which I was completely happy with, but since I downloaded Windows 8.1 a few months back I got into the habit of running the Windows compatibility mode due to the issues Steam games have with Windows 8.1. So I figured if I did the same with Minecraft maybe I could get even better performance! After I ran the program my game actually dropped to cap at 25 frames at the most which was not acceptable for me. I have tried to reinstall the game and play it again and it is the same problem, I don't know how to fix this.
Can someone please tell me what to do?

You can try and download/install OptiFine, which is a mod for Minecraft that improves the performance of the game.

It improved my frame rate quite a bit after I installed it.
