Windows 10: Graphics Driver Wont Update From Microsoft Basic adapter To Latest

So I recently Noticed That My Pc Isnt Using The Proper Driver For My Intel HD Graphics 4000,


I Tried Updating it Using Device Manager And It Says That I already Have The Best Adapter For My PC, Which It Isn't.

What Should I do?...

The graphics driver shows as “Microsoft Basic Display Adapter” after upgrading to Windows 10

Hi,

With regard to your query, your Display Adapter is listed as Microsoft Basic Display Adapter instead of the correct driver name. If you have recently update your display card driver, and this problem comes along, what we can try to do here is to roll the
display adapter's driver back to it's previous version.

Please follow the steps below:

• Press Windows key + X and select Device Manager.
• Expand Display Adapter's category, and right-click Microsoft Basic Display Adapter, select
  Properties.
• Under Driver tab, choose Roll Back
  Driver.

If rolling back the driver is unavailable, update the display driver manually.

• In Device Manager, expand Display
  adapter's category and right-click Microsoft Basic
  Display Adapter, and select Properties.
• Under Driver tab, choose Update Driver.
• Select Browser my computer for driver software.
• Click the Browse button, then navigate to the folder where you place the downloaded display card driver setup file.
• Reboot the computer for the changes to take effect.

Let us know the result.

 

Local Area Connection adapter and graphics card problems

Hi Doug,

Sorry to hear about the inconvenience caused.

"Microsoft Basic Display Adapter" is the default graphics from Microsoft, it states that the graphics driver is having issues or outdated.

• C:\Windows\system32\NvMcTray.dll
• C:\Windows\system32\NvCpl.dll

Both of the above files are related to NVidia.

We suggest you to visit NVidia website to download the latest graphics drivers for the computer:

You might have to visit the computer manufacturer website and check for any latest drivers for Windows 10 and install it on the pc.

Check for Network adapter driver and Graphics drivers and install it.

Hope this information helps, for further assistance please reply.

This is what worked for me. After upgrade to windows 10 from windows 7 devise manager shows Microsoft display basic adapter, I selected driver update then my pc and browse to C: drive then it auto searched my C: drive and found my old graphic card and
installed the correct display driver which was NVidia and listed correct model. Now the monitor is identified by the correct name and model, and I was able to adjust display to the recommended settings it was 1600x900 which it was not an available option
under Microsoft display basic adapter,
