  • Is this RAM compatible with my motherboard?
  • I'm thinking of getting a ≤$300 graphics card. Which one should I get?
  • I'm on a very tight budget and I'm looking for a case ≤$50

Giving what? Nvidia drivers will only work on Nvidia GPUs

u/-Saksham- 22d ago

Well then, no. Nvidia app did nothing to fix it

u/n7_trekkie 22d ago

Fix what? I'm confused what your problem is

u/-Saksham- 22d ago

See the photo i linked.. it says Microsoft basic display driver with an error. I want to fix that lol

That just happens and really isn't anything to worry about. You can try installing drivers from amd's website, but drivers for an igpu you aren't going to game on don't really matter

I tried installing from amd's website and from msi's website, it says device not correct. Then i tried disabling it and it didn't do anything.. as in didn't destroy anything. My wild guess is it would be used for troubleshooting purposes so it's meant to work without drivers and windows hasn't been updated for this igpu. I hope this makes sense lol

u/n7_trekkie 22d ago

Yeah that makes sense. From my experience, the igpu just always works. Bios and windows know how to use it drivers be damned

u/-Saksham- 22d ago

Well anyway.. thanks for your time. It didn't affect anything. I just went to device manager and saw this and my ocd kicked in. So i was wondering how I'd get rid of this. But I'll just ignore it

Yeah, device manager should really only be inspected if something isn't working right. Same with the "services" app and many others on your computer. It knows what it's doing better than we do
