Windows 10: Blender does not start despite current graphics cards?

I have downloaded Blender 2.83a but when I try to start it I get this error message. I have the latest Windows version (64 bit) and I have already checked the device manager for updates on both graphics cards, both are up to date. So what is the reason for this?

graphics card problems

Hi,

Your computer makes a noise or beeps from your internal speaker because it failed to detect the graphics card. What we can suggest is for you to try cleaning your graphics card with a pencil eraser. Here are the steps below:

• Turn your computer off.
• Pull out your video/graphics card.
• Rubbed the cold contacts with soft pencil eraser.
• Connect your video/graphics card back to the computer.

Kindly note that this is just a temporary fix. If the case still continues, I suggest that you contact your graphics card's manufacturer.

Let us know how it goes.
