Windows 10: Display Glitch

Hi all.


I am using a Dell Inspiron 15 7000 laptop. recently I've been experiencing a display glitch as shown in the images below. i think it is a software issue and not hardwarebut I am not sure.


It only happens some of the time, and seems to be mostly on apps with lots of text. the glitch goes away when I move the cursor over the affected area or if I scroll within the app.


any help would be appreciated.

My displays are glitched (I think).

Hi,



Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community Forums.

• What is the make and model of the computer?
  
• Where exactly do you see the monitor being picked up twice?
  
• Are the both display devices connected to the NVidia graphics card?
  

Since the drivers are installed for both integrated and dedicated graphics cards, none of the display devices should be using Microsoft basic display adaptor.



I request you to post the screenshot of the display settings window (Settings->System->Display) in reply to this post. Please ensure that the screenshot does not contain any personal information like your email address, phone number etc.



How to include a screenshot in your post



Meanwhile, I would suggest to check and remove if there are any hidden drivers installed for graphics adapters. Please follow the steps given below.

• Right click on Start (Windows logo) and select
  Device Manager.
  
• Click on View menu item and select
  Show hidden items.
  
• Expand Display adapters and remove the devices which are greyed out by right clicking on the device and selecting
  Uninstall.
  
• Reboot the computer and check if the issue is fixed.
  

Please get back to us with the information requested above, so that we can suggest the appropriate troubleshooting steps.

We look forward to your reply.

Minor Upgrade Glitches


My b11102 just upgraded to b14267.

My PC exhibited a couple minor upgrade glitches.
The glitches this time:

• No mouse
• K-Lite had to be reinstalled (after W10 displayed a pop-up about every video extension)

After a reboot, the mouse has returned and everything else seems to be working OK.
