Graphics Driver crashes

For IE, the workaround might be to turn off hardware acceleration in IE's Internet Option page. Go to the Tools/ Internet Options/ Advanced tab and check the first option: Accelerated graphics, Use software rendering instead of GPU rendering. This IE
setting might carry over into Microsoft Edge too.

Is there any problem with both Windows Updates and Nvidia Auto Updates over loading your machine with drivers for the same piece of hardware?

When you manually install drivers use the following method whenever possible.

Try right-clicking on the actual Driver Setup.exe and selecting the "Run As Administrator" option? Do so even if your user is an Admin.

Hi Bastewart,



Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

I would suggest you to check the compatibility of graphics card with windows 10.



Follow the link:

As you have mentioned device manager is not able to recognize graphics card so I would suggest you to run hard ware and device troubleshooter and check.



Follow the below steps.

A) Go to the Control Panel then ‘Troubleshooting’ and select ‘troubleshooting’.

b) Click on ‘Hardware and Sound’ and select ‘Hardware and Devices’ and click on next to run the troubleshooter.

If it doesn't work so I would suggest you to Boot in safe mode and try to uninstall graphics drivers. restart the computer. check if you can boot normally.



If yes, Try to install latest Graphics Driver in compatibility mode and check.

Follow the steps.



a. Right click on setup file.

b. Click on Properties.

d. Put a check mark on Run this program in compatibility mode for.

Did you do a clean install and choose express settings?

 

No i upgraded from windows 8.1 with all my apps and files but i chose express settings

 

I am having the same issue on my Dell 6520 laptop. Upgraded to 10 from basically clean install of Win 7 with all updates.
Driver is up to date with Dell and NVIDIA site. My graphics card on the laptop is a NVIDIA NVS 4200m.
Was crashing and coming back to display. Now on the third or 4th crash it doesnt recover and goes to black screen, No option but to hard power off. Next stop is to look for bios update from Dell. .

 

I would remove your current driver using a program called DDU which can be found here:

Display Driver Uninstaller Download version 15.4.0.0

After the reboot, install your Driver and it will be a clean driver. I used to get that error in Win 7 many times but not in 10. I hope this helps you.

 

I will give the DDU a try if the bios update doesnt help. The bios on this machine is way out of date. Thanks.

 

The bios update helped at least for now. I was getting almost instant crashes when getting to the desktop. Been 5 min with no crash,
Crossing fingers. Still a version behind. But going to let this one run for a bit.

 

Good, glad it worked out. Dell is pretty good at providing Bios updates.
