    Update this morning shut down my monitors


    My setup is a Dell XPS 8700 with Geforce 640 card, and I currently run 5 monitors(via USB) with that setup, and have for a while now. When I ran today's Windows update, it disabled two of my monitors. They're still powered on, but black screen and the computer isn't recognizing them. I attempted to delete/reinstall the drivers for the USB slots, went to Dell's site and updated everything there, and also tried to reinstall the Nvidia drivers. The USB ports still work, as I tested them both with a flash drive. After no luck there, I went to Microsoft help forum and this is what they told me to do...

    Todays update crashed my monitors - Microsoft Community


    Still no luck. Any other ideas? Thanks

    :)

    Monitor Looks bad After Update

    Yesterday when I shut down my PC there was an option to only shut down as well as an option to shut down and update so I chose to shut down and update. This morning when I turned my PC back on it completed the updates. Once I got onto my desktop I noticed
    that the brightness, contrast and saturation of my primary monitor (I have two monitors) was completely messed up. The monitor was very dark and extremely saturated. I looked in control panel for the display calibration program and it did not show up. Can
    anyone help me fix this?

    Monitor

    I turned off the monitor last night when i went to sleep and left the computer on. When I woke up this morning my monitor wouldn't turn on. I had to restart my computer to do so. I don't want to continue unproperly shutting it down.

    Update this morning shut down my monitors

    It's the Nvidia drivers update. Can you revert to older drivers something is broken in the drivers, I had the update last night too but no problems so far.

    Not sure how to do that(I'm about 20% competent when it comes to tech issues). Isn't that what was attempted through the instructions linked above from the Microsoft help forum?

    No that's to check the system. winkey+x, device manager, find the display driver, right click properties, click Driver tab then click roll back driver button. You may need to reboot.
