    Display adapter suddenly changed to Microsoft Basic Display Driver and now nothing is...


    So I was just having a good time on my gaming laptop watching a Youtube video, and all of a sudden my wallpaper went missing. I could not change my brightness. My laptop was very slow. I went into my display settings in the Windows Settings app. It said; Display 1: Connected to Microsoft Basic Display Driver.The Hertz was unknown. So I went to the properties and 64 hertz! My laptop has 144 HZ!!! My scale went from 100% to 125%. It is like i went from Windows 11 to Windows 7. I tried restarting the computer with fast startup turned off, nothing changed. I use an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650. Asus Tu

    To update the driver for the Basic Display Adapter in Windows 10, follow these steps:

    1. Open Device Manager: Right-click on the "Start" button and select "Device Manager" from the context menu.
    2. Locate Display Adapters: In the Device Manager window, expand the "Display adapters" section. You should see "Microsoft Basic Display Adapter" listed.
    3. Right-click and Update Driver: Right-click on "Microsoft Basic Display Adapter" and select "Update driver" from the dropdown menu.
    4. Choose Update Method: In the Update Drivers window, you will have two options:
      • Search automatically for updated driver software: This option will allow Windows to search online for the latest driver and install it automatically.
      • Browse my computer for driver software: If you have already downloaded the latest driver from the manufacturer's website, select this option and browse to the location where the driver is saved on your computer.
    5. Automatically Install: If you selected the first option, Windows will search for the latest driver and automatically install it if one is found.
    6. Manual Installation: If you selected the second option, browse to the location of the downloaded driver and follow the on-screen instructions to manually install it.
    7. Restart Your Computer: After the driver update is complete, it's a good idea to restart your computer to apply the changes fully.

    Computer's Display Driver Suddenly Changed to Microsoft Basic Display Adapter.

    So my friends computer shows that it has Microsoft Basic Display Adapter but it runs on a intel i5 2450m, which has a integrated graphics driver, and he used that pc to play his games and it had no issues with it, suddenly today it shows that the graphics driver changed to the Basic Adapter.

    Now he cannot enjoy his favorite games, and his pc is now practically useless as he uses it to play games.

    Any possible help? I will foward this message to my friend.
