    screen display is horizontally stretched and distorted

    I tried Koachs solution on my display adapter -

    an ATI Radeon HD 4200 - but it didn't work.

    My screen was fine until the Feature Update to Windows 10 version 1709 started last week. The screen went blank for a second and then came back stretched. The update failed initially, but was finally successful, although painfully slow, the next day.
    However, the screen was still stretched.

    I checked for updated drivers, but there were none. Then I tried Koach's solution of Roll Back driver, but still no luck.

    Any other suggestions? Is my display adapter now too old to be compatible with this latest update of Windows 10?

    display stretched after windows update

    Hello,

    Thank you for visiting Microsoft Community.

    As per the description, I understand that after an Update, your Display is larger and stretched. I will certainly help you with the issue.

    I would like to know the make and the model of your PC.

    Also, I would suggest you to follow the steps mentioned below:

    Method 1:


    • Press Windows key and type Change Screen Resolution and click on the option listed

    • Under Resolution, try changing the resolution settings

    Method 2:

    You may update the Display driver from Device Manager manually and check if this helps.

    1. Press (Windows key + X) and click on “Device Manager”.

    2. Expand “Display Adaptor”.

    3. Right click on the video driver and select “Update Driver Software”. Once this is done, restart the computer and check if the issue persists.

    Method 3:

    Try installing latest display driver from the computer manufacturer website and check if it helps. If Windows 10 display driver is not available in the manufacturer website, I suggest you to install the driver in compatibility
    mode.

    To install the display driver in compatibility mode, I would suggest you to follow these steps:

    a. Download the latest drivers from the manufacturer’s website and save it on your local disk.

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

    c. Select “Compatibility” Tab.

    d. Place a check mark next to “Run this program in Compatibility mode” and
    select latest Windows version from the drop down list.

    e. Let the driver install and then check the functionality.

    Hope this information helps.

    Reply us with the status of the issue.

    Sincerely,
