  2. Windows update reverted display to MS Basic Display Driver

    Hi,

    Normally, this issue occurs when the drivers were being corrupted or updated after the recent update. Since you've already tried to install the latest driver, we suggest that you roll back to the previous driver and check if it helps to resolve the issue. To
    do this, kindly follow the steps below:

    • Open Device Manager.
    • Double-click the device for which you want to roll back to the previous version of the driver, and then click
      Properties.
    • Under the Driver tab, select Roll Back Driver.
    • Select OK.

    Let us know how it goes after performing the suggested steps.

    Can not use two monitors. Error message: "The display settings could not be saved. Please try a different combination of display settings"

    Hello,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    • Since when are you facing this issue with the monitors?
    • Which build version of Windows 10 is installed on your computer?
    • What happens when you try to duplicate the monitors?

    I suggest you to try changing the display ports of the monitors and check if the second monitor is getting detected.



    I suggest you to follow the methods mentioned below and check if that helps.

    Method 1: Try rolling back the driver.

    To roll back the driver to previous build follow the steps mentioned below:

    1. Press and hold the Windows + X key on the keyboard.
    2. Select Device manager.
    3. In Device manager, expand Display adaptor.
    4. Right click on NVIDIA
      Drivers and select Properties.
    5. Navigate to the Driver tab and click on Roll Back Driver.
    6. Restart the computer.

    Method 2: Change the screen resolution.

    1. Go to Settings>System>Display.
    2. Under Resolution, set the resolution as 1024 x 768.
    3. Set the same resolution on the other monitor.

    Please reply with the status of the issue, we will be glad to help you further.

    Hi Maheen,

    • Incorrect settings.
