    Hi William,

    It is important that you have the correct screen display and resolution. We suggest that you perform the following steps to reset the monitor settings:

    • Boot your computer in
      safe mode
      .
    • Once in safe mode, right-click the desktop > Screen Resolution.
    • Change the display settings back to the original configuration.
    • Restart your computer.

    Feel free to update us on the result.

    Black screen after updating display drivers

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I understand that after upgrading the graphics drivers, you are receiving a Black screen. I’ll certainly assist
    you with the issue.



    However, please let us know:




    • When exactly do you see a black screen?


    • Are you able to boot the computer to the login in screen?

    • What is the make and model of the computer?



    I suggest you to try refreshing the graphics driver by using the key sequence
    Windows logo key + Ctrl + Shift + B and see if that helps.



    I would suggest you to try booting the computer into Safe Mode and try disabling the display driver. Refer
    the article on Start
    your PC in safe mode in Windows 10
    .



    After booting the computer to Safe Mode, refer the steps mentioned below:




    1. Press
      Windows logo key + X, and select Device Manager.

    2. Expand
      Display Adapters.

    3. Right click on the
      Display driver and select Disable device.

    4. Restart the computer.



    If this allows you to boot the computer to normal mode, try uninstalling the driver.
    To do this, refer the steps mentioned below:




    1. Press
      Windows logo key + X, and select Device Manager.

    2. Expand
      Display Adapters.

    3. Right click on the
      Display driver and select Uninstall.

    4. Restart the computer.



    Let us know how it goes.



    Regards,

    Nikhar Khare
