How to Change Windows 10 Microsoft Basic Display Adapter to Current Graphics Adapter
13How to Change Windows 10 Microsoft Basic Display Adapter to Current Graphics Adapter
Some computers and laptops come with more than one display adapter, also known as a graphics card. There are plenty of graphics card types, ranging from low-budget ones for the most basic work to those for the latest video games and graphic design and everything in between. The reason for several graphics cards in the same device is to use the weaker one whenever possible, spend less power and avoid overheating if the user is simply browsing Facebook, for example. When the user starts a video game, the device will automatically switch over to a stronger display adapter.
Windows 10 came with a lot of goofy stuff and issues for the users upgrading their current systems to the latest update of windows.
One of those several problems faced by users is the Microsoft Basic Display Driver option under Display adapters, which is basically causing the system to not pick your graphics card.
Windows while upgrading installed all the built-in drivers automatically instead of the updated specific drivers by the manufacturer. What happened next was the system lost its ability to utilize the graphics card to give you those awesome visuals and high-definition picture quality.
While previously if you had noticed, you’d find the graphics card say Intel HD Graphics 4400, AMD 7800, Nvidia GTX 1060, but now if you look you’ll see Microsoft Basic Display Driver listed only.
