Windows 10: Display compatibility issues

None of my display adapters are compatible with my system. I had a Intel 630 HD driver that disappeared from my system. The graphics card display adapter isn't compatible with my system and Windows 10 keeps trying to replace the lost driver by the Microsoft basic display adapter. How can I fix this?Thanks

:)

Hi Fletcher,

Welcome to Microsoft community and thank you for posting your query.

Sorry for the inconvenience caused to you. Let me help you to fix the issue.

To assist you better, I would lie to know what is the make and model of the computer?

The issue you are facing could be due to the display driver is outdated. Let’s try simple troubleshooting steps and check if this helps in resolving the issue. Follow the below method.

  Device manager.

  Locate for display adapter and click on it to expand.

  Right-click on the setup file of the driver and select Properties.

display issue

Hi Akash,

This issue could be caused due to some incorrect display settings or due to an incompatible display driver. I would suggest you to first restart the PC and check. Once you have restarted if the same behavior is noticed, I would suggest you check if you have
set the right display resolution for your monitor size. Check this article for more information:

Get the best display on your monitor

Note; Though the steps might vary a little, the suggestions provided in this article holds good for Windows 10 as well.

If the issue persists after trying the above steps, then the issue could be with the display drivers. In this case,
I would suggest you to visit the PC manufacturer's website to download and install the latest drivers. If you couldn't find any drivers for Windows 10, download the drivers for the latest Windows OS and install it in compatibility
mode. Type 'Compatibility' in the search box and select 'run programs made for previous version' to run the compatibility troubleshooter.
