    Resolution dropped - and no option to increase


    I have a PC with an NVIDIA GTX 560 Ti graphics card, and use a Samsung S23C650 monitor .
    This is normally set to resolution of 1920 x 1080

    Today I run IOBIT driver update - and it updated some drivers ... and now my screen resolution is way off ... set to 1024 x 768.
    If I go to settings it does not show anything higher than 1024 x 768 and if I go to adapter (NVIDIA GTX 560 Ti) it only lists modes up to 1024 x 768.
    Looks like this driver update has messed up my display adapter ..... anybody know how to recover ?

    NVIDIA adapter shows driver 21.21.13.7633

    You need to rollback the driver to the previous version. Here is a guide to show you how.

    Rolled back - reboot, still the same.
    Run Windows update driver, it updated but after reboot still the same.

    Go here: Drivers - Download NVIDIA Drivers and download proper WDDM drivers.

    Do not rely on those auto updaters for any components you can get drivers for straight thru the source. They "update" drivers only according to what someone else thinks you should have. Not reliable source.

    I did go to nVidia site .. every time I tried to check what driver I needed it failed - it needs Java .. and my browsers do not use Jave due to security risk.
    I did manually install Java on new browser just to do this ... and even though Java installed it still failed asking for Java.
    I have asked on nVidia forum what correct driver is ... no answer yet.

    Try from this address: System Memory for Intel(R) Desktop Board DH61BE it should start downloading Java or not.

    Is the 376.33 the correct driver ?
    W10 installed 21.21.13.7633 as the latest driver.
    If it is I will happily install.
    Just wanted to check as numberring seems so different.

    W10 installed 21.21.13.7633 = 376.33 so it seams newest driver is already installed.
