Graphics Driver Issues — Solutions

Graphics driver problems affect everything: screen flickering, resolution, games, and even blue screens.

1. Update via Device Manager

  • Device Manager → Display adapters
  • Right-click → Update driver → Search automatically

    • 2. Download from Manufacturer

    Better than Windows Update:

  • NVIDIA: nvidia.com/drivers
  • AMD: amd.com/drivers
  • Intel: intel.com/downloads

    • 3. Clean Reinstall

    If update made things worse:

  • Download DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller)
  • Restart in Safe Mode
  • Run DDU to completely remove
  • Restart and install correct driver

    • 4. Rollback Driver

    If it started after an update:

  • Device Manager → right-click adapter → Properties
  • Driver tab → Roll Back Driver

    • 5. Check GPU Temperature

    Overheating causes graphical issues:

  • Task Manager → Performance → GPU → Temperature
  • Above 85°C is concerning
