    I think Windows 10 actually supports ATi Radeon HD 3450.

    but there's a note:

    These graphics products must be installed using display driver version: 8.970.100.9001. This driver is provided as a courtesy and only available via Windows Update. Please enable Windows Update and allow it to detect and install the appropriate driver.

    I'll describe a situation: every different computer I connect to my HP 19" WXGA monitor on my workbench prompts it to go through its built-in Auto Adjust to fit the graphics adapter settings. There is a short period before that finishes where there is a black border on all sides of the display, when finished the screen is filled out as it should be.
