    Windows showed a "ghost" monitor which is not mine


    I installed windows then updated drivers with software normally then windows showed me that my monitor is Acer S271hl but my real monitor is Dell E2016h and it also has some extra unusable resolution.I tried reinstall graphic driver and nothing changed then monitor driver with dell driver from website but can't because it said "windows has determined that the best driver.." Is there anyway to fix this without reinstalling windows?

    :)

    Sniper Ghost Warrior

    Hi Gary,

    Sorry for the delay in response.

    • What is the make and model of the computer?
    • Do you face the issue only with Sniper Ghost Warrior?
    We would suggest you to update the graphics drivers and check.

    Ghost screens

    My windows 10 PC shows a ghost display in display settings i.e. it shows two displays when there is only one. How can i remove it? I realise this is raised elsewhere but i don't understand the answer and need a more step by step, idiots guide, to fixing it. Thanks

    Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

    Here's a quick laundry list:

    List of software to use for overclocking and testing
    Examples:
    Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
    Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)

    Step-by step overclocking in Wattman
    Fan speeds
    Power limit
    Temp limit
    Voltages
    Core speeds
    Memory speeds
