    Display driver stopped responding and has recovered, shows wrong drive


    Since upgrading to Windows 10 from 8.1, I've seen the following message several times.

    Display Driver stopped responding and has recovered
    Display driver Intel HD Graphics Drivers for Windows 8(R) stopped responding and has successfully recovered.
    Display driver stopped responding and has recovered, shows wrong drive-20150807_142052-0500_display-driver-stopped-responding-has-recovered.jpg

    When it happens, my laptop screen goes black for a few seconds, except for the taskbar and toast notification. I also have an external monitor that doesn't seem affected at all.

    I can reproduce the error pretty consistently if I rapidly switch a Flash video back and forth between full-screen and embedded, but that's not the only time I've seen the problem.

    As far as I can tell, everything continues running. Even the full-screen video continues running after the screen isn't black any more.

    The weird thing is that the driver name it shows isn't the driver I'm using. I've already upgraded my display drivers to the latest available from Intel's site.

    Some things I've observed:

    • The information presented by Windows in Settings -> Display -> Advanced display settings shows the driver for Windows 10 that I downloaded from Intel.
    • The "Intel HD Graphics Control Center" that was installed along with the driver shows the latest driver version that I downloaded from Intel.
    • In Settings -> Apps & Features there's only one "Intel(R) Processor Graphics Driver" listed.
    • Event viewer shows very little useful information:
      • General
        Display driver igfx stopped responding and has successfully recovered.
      • Details (XML View):
        - <Event xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/win/2004/08/events/event">

        <Data>igfx</Data>

        </EventData>
        </Event>



    It's conceivable that Intel updated the driver, but forgot to change the string somewhere so the error is actually for the Windows 10 driver.

    I don't know how to find out exactly what failed or why. It's getting that string from somewhere.

    Any ideas?

    Just registered to say that I have the exact same problem (lenovo Y50-70 with intel 4600 igpu) - latest drivers.

    I'm having the same issue. Sometimes I can play a game for hours or five minutes. I started with whatever video drivers Windows 10 gave me when I upgraded from Windows 8.1, drivers from Asrock (I'm using a H97M Pro4), Intel driver, new driver from Asrock, new Intel driver (currently using this now). No joy with any of these.

    I've upgraded my BIOS, other drivers etc. I had no issues in Windows 8.1.

    I am starting to get that same message quite regularly, not playing games. I have an ASUS GTX 660 Ti and the driver is 355.60. I can't remember having this problem before I got this last driver. I may go back one version and see if this problem continues.

    We've helped many people with the "display has stopped responding and has recovered" error. I hope this helps!

    this didn't help me that much if at all. After reading every post on the web about this problem over the last month or so I did a fresh install of windows ten as I was working with an upgrade install. Still having the problem along with hangups and reboots with various kernal errors and other junk.

    Ended up being a setting in my bios! A default setting is to not be using a PnP operating system which the bios then assigns the addresses. Once I switched that to ON my problems have gone away.

    I managed to fix this but i had too do a factory reset few weeks ago now on Win8.1 since Windows 10 has rubbish drivers and too many issues.
    BEFORE YOU DO THIS POST WHOCRASHED LOG TO ME DOWNLOAD :http://www.resplendence.com/download...ashedSetup.exe

    I'm having this exact problem, sporadically. I'm basically a computer novice. I found instructions on how to access the BIOS and did so successfully; however, I could not locate what setting you're describing when you state "a default setting is to not be using a PnP operating system which the bios then assigns the addresses." Can you clarify/help me find the specific setting in BIOS that you switched to "ON?" Thank you very much.

    Hi, I'm new and am having the same problems. In my case, my laptop is only one week old and had Windows 10 pre-installed.

    In my graphics card properties window, I am reading the following message:
    "Device PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_0416&SUBSYS_F9391179&REV_06\3&11583659&1&10 requires further installation."

    Could this be related to the problem and, perhaps more importantly, how do I complete the suggested further installation?

    Sorry. I know I joined several weeks after this thread may have been considered closed, but I'd be really interested to hear if anyone has resolved this sort of problem.
