I am having a problem with the windows 10 upgrade service.
It keeps telling me my display adaptor is a Matrox adaptor but the actual adaptor is an intel motherboard adaptor.
No Matrox adaptor has ever been fitted (I have had the computer for 15 years (various new motherboards etc) and never have used a Matrox adaptor.
It wont let me upgrade as it says the adaptor is not supported.
Since upgrading to Windows 10 from 8.1, I've seen the following message several times.
Display Driver stopped responding and has recovered
Display driver Intel HD Graphics Drivers for Windows 8(R) stopped responding and has successfully recovered.
When it happens, my laptop screen goes black for a few seconds, except for the taskbar and toast notification. I also have an external monitor that doesn't seem affected at all.
I can reproduce the error pretty consistently if I rapidly switch a Flash video back and forth between full-screen and embedded, but that's not the only time I've seen the problem.
As far as I can tell, everything continues running. Even the full-screen video continues running after the screen isn't black any more.
The weird thing is that the driver name it shows isn't the driver I'm using. I've already upgraded my display drivers to the latest available from Intel's site.
Some things I've observed:
The information presented by Windows in Settings -> Display -> Advanced display settings shows the driver for Windows 10 that I downloaded from Intel.The "Intel HD Graphics Control Center" that was installed along with the driver shows the latest driver version that I downloaded from Intel.In Settings -> Apps & Features there's only one "Intel(R) Processor Graphics Driver" listed.Event viewer shows very little useful information:

It's conceivable that Intel updated the driver, but forgot to change the string somewhere so the error is actually for the Windows 10 driver. I don't know how to find out exactly what failed or why. It's getting that string from somewhere.
I have a dual monitor setup. I have 2 AOC e2252V monitors that would work fine on Windows 7. I have all updated drivers. I've checked the internet for multiple solutions but everyone's problem seemed to be that they didnt extend their displays. My problem is that both windows 10 and my graphics card are not detecting it. They are both connected to the DVI-D connections on my MSI R9 390 graphics card (installed with the latest drivers from 11/30/2015 on the MSI website.) One monitor is hooked up from VGA through a DVI-D adapter to connect to my graphics card. I assumed this wasn't the problem because I did the same thing on my previous card where it worked just fine. I checked to see if one of my DVI-D connections were faulty on the card, but my one monitor hooked up directly through a DVI-D cable (no adapter) works on both of them. If I hook up my TV through HDMI connection, it will detect my TV. I wonder if this is a problem with Windows 10, MSI R9 390, or the adapter. [URL]
View 4 RepliesMy laptop came installed with a 4GB RAM in slot2. The other slot has been free. Today I bought another 4GB module with same specifications and after inserting to slot1, it did not get detected.
I swapped the modules, and the new RAM is functioning perfectly. However, the RAM in slot1 is not getting detected. I have installed CPU-Z, but it too did not detect slot1.
I have also run a memory test, but it did not detect any errors. The BIOS is also showing only 4GB!
I need my laptop to have 8GB RAM.
I thought I fixed this problem, until dec. 2nd when Windows 10 did an update.
All my drivers are up to date.
I removed my Anti Virus (Panda) and re-installed it, looked like it fixed it, but the next day it stopped recognizing my wifi connection again.
My partner uninstalled AVG and then found that the wifi wasn't working. Tried an ethernet cable, no good either. Then tried to roll back in W10, still no luck.
It seems that the wifi adapters have disappeared and it may be a common problem with W10. I can download a fix to a memory stick, but what will be needed to get back online.
I'm running Windows 10 on a desktop (64bit). For some reason some of the keyboard buttons are displaying the wrong item when holding down the shift button.
E.G.the@button shows"and the"button shows@ ....
There are other buttons doing exactly the same.
First here's my rig:
Mobo: asrock 970 pro3 r2.0
CPU: amd fx6300 not oc
Gpu: vapor x r9 280x 3gb
Ram: 16gb (8gb vengeance pro, 8gb ripjaws 1600mhz)
Psu: corsair RM1000
Storage: Seagate barracuda 2tb, Seagate pipeline 500gb, Kingston now ssd 120gb.
Problem: okay so I recently upgraded my rig from a 7970 to a 280x. I had a 550w antec psu at the time and my pc shut off by itself a few times which stuffed with my windows 10 install. It was saying "bootmgr is missing. So I went to reinstall windows and it shut off again halfway through, I decided it was due to lack of power so I recently bought the rm1000. I have hooked everything up and was about to do an install of windows 7 but now not one of my drives are showing up. Not in the bios either.
I have tried different cables, different ports, the cables work with an optical drive and it shows up. I have tried updating the bios and cleaning cos. Replaced the battery. Is it possible that a psu can kill all three drives without any visible sign? I hope not.
So I just finished installing windows 10 and I'm having this issue where my display driver isn't being recognized and instead its now showing "Microsoft Basic Display Adapter". Is there any way to bring back the old driver to its original resolution?
I have a Dell Inspiron N7110 and it seems like all the drivers are only compatible with Windows 8.1, how can I bypass that?
Also, another issue is that Windows Troubleshooter doesn't work. When I click on "Show more" it says that "Context: Restricted".
So ive seen this problem in the beta versions, but no fix for the full release. PC is no longer detecting my GTX 970 and my second monitor is also undetected.
I installed the win 10 driver from then nvidia sight. For a short while the second monitor works as it should, but then turns off again.
The graphics driver fails to install on all attempts to update.
I have 3 flash drives that, for some reason, no longer function regardless of which USB port they are attached to. They display as if they are ready but indicate "not responding" as soon as I try to access them. I see message "not migrating" under Events in their properties. This is a problem that has just arisen. I've been running Windows 10 since official release.
View 5 RepliesExperienced this problem of losing wifi drivers after installing win 10, my hp laptop does not detect wifi but if I plug in ethernet cable the internet connection is sporadic.
View 3 RepliesWindows 8.1 had detecting my 2 monitors attached to the laptop. After the upgrade to Windows 10, its not detecting those two monitors.
View 2 RepliesI am really trying to like windows 10 but I am having problems from games not working to Windows not detecting the refresh rate of 144hz on my VG278HE it just says 60hz and generic monitor drivers.
I am very close to putting Windows 7 back on my system.
I actually have two issues (the second being that the built-in microphone isn't working, but that's the least of my worries). I have my laptop connected to an external monitor & I can't get any non-system sounds to play.
Dell Laptop w/ only HDMI video connected to Dell VGA monitor (no speakers) via an adapter that has a 3.5mm jack for speakers. I can get system sounds via the laptop's speakers, but I can't play MP3s and YouTube videos have no sound. I had things working at one point (no, I cannot remember what I did or can find the tutorial that I used), but after moving my desk (unhooking the laptop from the monitor), cussing at non-functional microphone, and setting things back up, I'm back to no sounds. When I did get the speakers to work, they were working on the 3.5mm headphone/microphone jack on the laptop, but not through the jack on the HDMI/VGA adapter.
I've seen things about disabling the HDMI audio controller. I cannot change the default audio devices via the sound dialog box that is available by right-clicking on the sound icon on the bottom right of the screen. I'm assuming that the Dell speakers that are stuck as default are the on-board ones on the laptop.
Since installing windows 10 on my old dell, i am having major problems. The Computer is very slow, and is probably too old to properly run the new Windows, but the biggest issue is that after a restart, i am seeing a split screen display with a line through the centre of the screen, and i can find no way to get it back to a single display. After multiple more restarts it has gone back to one screen, but i am now getting two again. In case i am not being clear, here is a photo of what i am seeing.
View 2 RepliesI have just downloaded and installed Windows 10. All is good except the default resolution seems too large. I have tried all the options available in Control Panel/Display/Screen Resolution but none work or are in proportion except the basic default 1024 x 768 setting though this is way to 'big' for me.
My monitor, an HP w1907v, appears to want 1440 x 900 at 60 Hz but all resolutions options available in Win 10 are at 64 Hz - not sure if this is the problem? The installed graphics driver is the Microsoft Basic Display Adapter, a driver which the self-checking tool on the Nvidia website states is the correct driver for my old onboard graphics (Nvidia GeForce 6100 nForce 430).
I think I need to do something a little out of the ordinary. I cannot find a better driver but the resolution options are pants. Can I change the Hz from 64 to 60 and if so how, and will this offer the right resolution options for my monitor?
I have a Toshiba that I upgraded from Windows 7 Vista to Windows 10, but has no Bluetooth capabilities whatsoever, yet every time I shut down and turn my computer back on, whether it may be an update or just manual, I end up in the corner of settings with Bluetooth search on. I can't disable it because there is no disable button.
View 5 RepliesIt seems like it is not detecting my second HDMI monitor. I did see that this was an issue previously resolved, but my predicament is a bit different. I use my second monitor as the primary due to the laptop monitor not working. As it is, I have been sitting for close to an hour on a black screen due to my main monitor not being picked up and no way to visually walk through to make it my primary again... If that is even the only problem. Are there any ways I can switch to my main monitor (2nd monitor) worth no visual representation whatsoever?
View 2 RepliesI love Windows 8.1 Pro, and now I have Windows 10. However, the point is that I've read articles and they all verify that Windows 10 detects cracked software and does not allow us to use them.Moreover, has Microsoft stop the OS from detecting cracked software and block them?
View 1 RepliesI'm running B10074 on my laptop , and I connected my external display to it as well as my external keyboard and mouse at my desk so I could sit there and do the setup etc without moving all of that out of the way. I had the laptop lid shut and off to the side while I was doing this. Then, I shut the laptop down, unplugged all the external peripherals, and turned it on again. It went through the windows boot sequence with the spinning circles, then black screen.
After 20 minutes of frustration, I realised that the laptop would show a login prompt only when I plug in the external monitor BEFORE i start it, and only if the laptop is closed while it is booting (when the lid is closed during boot, the Dell logo and spinning circles come up on the external display)
I further figured out that in Control Panel, it only displays the external display, its like the computer doesn't even recognise the internal display anymore. I dont know why that would be since when I first booted it up and installed drivers, I was using the internal display and everything was working fine.
Been having a hard time diagnosing the root of the issue I've been having with my custom-built PC. Two weeks ago, I started getting display driver crashes every time I was in a game. It would crash, then recover. This continued for a few days. I shrugged it off because I am aware that NVIDIA drivers have been having issues with Windows 10 lately. They are prone to crashing. However, a few days later and continued sporadic display driver crashes in-game I had my PC completely restart and then nothing happened. The monitor was blank. The LED's on my fans were on. I tried to power down the PC via shut down. Nothing happened. I had to shut it down by flicking the PSU power switch off. I then flicked the power back on, pressed the power button on my PC...same thing. LED's on fans were on, but the PC wouldn't boot. I opened up my side panel and saw that the CPU fan was not spinning. I powered everything down. I proceeded to take out the CPU 4-pin connector and use the other one (it was originally an 8-pin). The PC then powered on and has been working perfectly until today.
While in-game I had around my display driver crash and recover 5 consecutive times within seconds of the other. Eventually I turned the game off. My PC was normal until maybe an hour or two later I tried to launch another game. This caused my PC to instantly restart after getting past the main menu and loading a save game.
I proceeded to shut down. Used the original 4-pin when this happened the first time. It booted up, so it obviously wasn't a bad connector. Same thing. Tried a different PCI-E connector. Same thing. Then I proceeded to reseat my GPU, RAM, CPU, GPU and mobo power connectors. Well, I am now booted back up, launched Witcher 3 and no crash. Was in it over 10 minutes until I turned it off.
I was moving my PC around the week prior to the first time all this happened. I am wondering if my GPU simply got loose? My mobo doesn't have those things that snap into place, as you would on RAM slots. I also upgraded my RAM at the beginning of September.
Maybe I need a new PSU. Maybe I need a new mobo.
PC specs are as follows:
CPU: Intel i5-4590 3.3GHz;
CPU Cooler: Stock Intel;
Mobo: ASRock H81M-HDS Micro ATX LGA1150
GPU: EVGA GTX 960 2GB SuperSC ACX 2.0+
PSU: Corsair CX750;
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 16GB 1600MHz;
HDD: Toshiba 2TB 7200RPM;
Keyboard and Mouse: Corsair K70 Cherry MX Red Keyboard + Corsair M65 RGB Mouse
Temps are all normal. I know the CX line of Corsair PSU's isn't the best. I've had this since around July (around the time I got my GPU) and I don't have coil whine. I don't plan on keeping this PSU forever, I do plan to get a better one but at the moment this is what I have. I DID have coil whine or some sort of sounds when my display drivers were crashing soon as I launched a game. But again, since I reseated my GPU, RAM, etc, it appears to be stable and launching a game no longer restarted my system.
I just updated my display driver to the latest from Nvidia. Now the left half of the display is darker than the right half. I tried uninstalling the driver and reinstalling, but the problem remains.
The driver is Nvidia 355.60 WHQL , and yes my display card in on the list of supported cards. This is the driver for Windows 10 64 bit and my Nvidia GTS 450.
I have never seen this issue before and I don't know if it is Windows 10 or the Nvidia driver causing the problem.
I am getting this error message along with the driver crash after 1-2 months after upgrading to WIN10 from WIN8.1. It happens quite often few weeks ago it stopped now it started happening again. In event viewer there's a Dislpay Warning: Display driver igfx stopped responding and has successfully recovered. Event ID: 4101. Another thing I want to point out is that it says Windows 8(R) when my OS is running Windows 10? Why is that?
My Graphic driver is up to date. I tried uninstalling it then installing it back again but still happens. I also used DDU. So far contacted Microsoft Intel HP no solutions. Apparently INTEL are trying to fix this issue when already 2 new updates came out for the IRIS production driver and guess what didn't solve the issue. I put the TDR-Delay registry key still no luck.
I get this error on a Surface Pro 3 which I have updated to Windows 10. It normally occurs when playing Minecraft, anywhere from 5 minutes to 1 hour after opening. I have attempted to update the drivers, but it says that the drivers are up to date (which is odd as I am using Windows 8 drivers on a Windows 10 machine).
View 1 RepliesI'm having this issue for a few months already. But today I probably made it even worse.
Here is what happens:Until yesterday I had Windows 8.1, and sometimes (One day every 1 or 2 months) I would get a BSOD when trying to play some games. I would get an error on the BSOD saying: "Your PC ran into a problem and needs restart. We're just collecting some error info, and then we'll restart for you."... "If you'd like to know more, you can search online later for this error: VIDEO_TDR_FAILURE(nvlddmkm.sys)"
After that BSOD, my PC would restart. And then I would not be able to start any game. The screen would froze, the game would close, and I'd get the following error: "Display driver NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, Version 350.12 stopped responding and has successfully recovered".
By that point I would not be able to play anything else. After getting that problem for the first time (A lot of months ago), I discovered that the only way to "fix" it was to do a System restore to a few days back. By doing that, everything would go back to normal for a few weeks, maybe a month... and then it would happen again (BSOD, followed by restart, followed by games not opening, followed by a system restore...)
Well.. today I experienced the same thing.. BSOD.. restart.. error... tried to do a system restore, and this time it didn't work... So I decided to try something different and updated my Windows 8.1 to Windows 10, hoping it would fix everything..As soon as Windows finished upgrading, I got a BSOD, a restart, and after that I can't open any games... Now I get the same message as before, but with a different driver version (When windows upgraded, it installed the most updated driver I believe)... I had an old version on windows 8.1 because that fixed the problem a few months back...
Well.. right now I'm experiencing the error: "Display driver NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, Version 353.54 stopped responding and has successfully recovered".And since I just upgraded to windows 10, I can't really do a System Restore anymore...
