  2. Custom Driver : Intel HD Graphics & ATI Combo (Alpha) - by nIGHTmAYOR

    according to laptop support page they do list an old downloadable driver for intel for windows 7 , weather this is related to there being several variants of that laptop or this laptop has switchable graphics i may just suggest you reset the bios and see if things change , if yes you may be able to apply step 2 , if not then apply step 4 and call it today , you are still better off being on the high performance gpu .

    Out of curiosity can you take a snap shot from Settings > System > Display. Scroll down and click the “Graphics Settings” ?

    Hi,

    This issue may happen if the GPU is taking more time to display the graphics on your monitor and if the graphics card or driver is already problematic.

    As an initial troubleshooting step, try to uninstall then reinstall the graphics driver and see if the issue will persist:

    • Press Windows key + S and type devmgmt.msc.
    • Press Enter.
    • Expand Display adapters.
    • Right-click on your graphics driver.
    • Select Uninstall.
    • Click OK.
    • Restart your computer.

    Update us with the outcome so we can provide further assistance.

  4. I have a question on why my displays are using my graphics from my cpu rather than from my gpu

    Display shows microsoft basic display driver instead of my gpu

    Recently bought laptop gigabyte g5 kd (i5-11400h rtx3060). I installed graphic drivers, so now my graphic card shows in the list of devices, but whenever I launch a game in a fullscreen mode it looks like a slide show. When I use window mode it's pretty smooth. I've tried to turn off my integrated graphic card, since in fullscreen mode my GPU load is 0% while CPU starts to work too hard, but it didn't help, so I went to display settings and noticed that instead of my GPU it shows that it uses Microsoft basic display driver. How do I fix it?
