    PC Not Recognizing GPU / Can't Update


    I recently formatted my PC and now Windows is not recognizing my GPU Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 Ti. The only devices that show up in Device Manager are "Intel HD Graphics" and "Video Controller VGA Compatible." In dxdiag, the display device is listed as "Microsoft Basic Display Driver." I am unable to update the drivers for my GPU - the installer says that the drivers aren't compatible with my version of Windows.


    When I try to update Windows, I am given the error code 0x80240fff.

    "Microsoft Basic Display Driver." I am unable to update the drivers for my GPU - the installer says that the drivers aren't compatible with my version of Windows.

  3. Lumia 950 dual-sim on T-Mobile - How I got the firmware update and Windows 10 Update


    • The Microsoft Store rep said it was not possible to get the firmware update for a Lumia 950 on T-Mobile. I did not accept it.

      Here's what worked for me. I downloaded and installed the Windows Device Recovery Tool. Then I followed these steps:
      • I backed up the phone because this process does a factory reset
      • Turned off BitLocker on the phone.
      • Turned off the Reset Protection on the phone.
      • Ran Windows Device Recovery Tool on the PC.
      • Plugged the phone into the PC.
      • The Windows Device Recovery Tool recognized the phone and updated the software.
      • Several times I got a “failure” message on the PC screen. I repeated these steps until it went away:
        • Leaving the phone plugged in, I would reset the phone by holding down the power and volume down buttons simultaneously.
        • Then the Windows Device Recovery Tool would not recognize the phone. I continued and manually choose my Lumia.
        • I clicked through the battery warning.
        • If the "failure" appeared, I would repeat.
      • Eventually, I got a success message.
      • I set up the phone again. The Anniversary Update was now available for download.

    I hope this helps.

    GPU not detected by Windows after 1903 update

    Hey there,

    I got a message saying that 1803 won't be supported anymore so I updated against my own will because Windows wouldn't even let me postpone it.

    After that, my GPU disappeared from Device Manager under "Display Devices". NVIDIA drivers won't detect it saying there's no GeForce hardware.

    Laptop MSI GE72VR 7RF Apache Pro with GTX 1060 6GB.

    Symptoms

    + GeForce Experience says "NVIDIA GeForce Experience requires an NVIDIA GPU".

    + Installing drivers manually didn't work either "this graphics driver could not find compatible graphics hardware".

    + GPU not listed under "Display Devices" on Device Manager.

    What I've tried already

    + Rollback to previous Windows 10 version: my GPU is listed under "Display Devices" but only if I enable the "show hidden" feature. If I go to properties, it says that my GPU is not connected. I tried updating drivers from there but didn't work at all.

    + Disabling "Intel HD Graphics" device on Device Manager and connecting via HDMI to a TV, didn't recognize the GPU and didn't give any video image.

    + Restoring UEFI firmware settings to default from BIOS (there's no GPU option on BIOS).

    + Tried to restore Windows (there's a restore option in Control Panel) which would re-install it from zero without losing my data, but for some reason in the last steps it says is not possible and stops the process.

    + Neither old or new NVIDIA drivers, MSI drivers or even GeForce Experience would recognize my GPU so I can't install them.

    -

    Any ideas?

    Thanks PC Not Recognizing GPU / Can't Update :)
