    Display adapter not detected in device manager

    Hello Neil !

    I have previously tried the "show hidden devices" option and the display adapter was detected again. However, the tutorial I was following suggested that I uninstall the display adapter, restart and then windows should automatically reinstall the drivers
    again. For my case no drivers were installed, and the display adapter is nowhere to be found.

    My device manager does not show "Other Devices" and I have tried rebooting my laptop several times but nothing appears.

    All I can see is the integrated Intel display adapter.

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your response.

    I would suggest that you follow the steps below and check if you can find the adapter in Device Manager.

    1. Right click on the Start Menu and then click on Device Manager.

    2. From the list of Hardware, find the Microsoft Display Adapter and check if you can find the device in question.

    I would also suggest that you follow the troubleshooting steps provided in the first link and check if it helps.
