    How to Restart Video Graphics Driver of Display Adapter in Windows 8 and Windows 10


    Windows 8 and Windows 10 includes an easy method to restart your graphics drivers on demand as needed. This includes restarting NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel graphics drivers.

    If you are having an issue with your video drivers, you could try restarting them to see if that may solve the issue without needing to restart the computer.

    This tutorial will show you how to restart the video graphics drivers of your display adapter(s) in Windows 8 and Windows 10.



    Here's How:

    1 Press the Win + Ctrl + Shift + B keys.

    2 Your screen will now go blank for a second and you will hear a beep.

    3 Everything will now automatically reappear as it was before pressing the keys. Anything open and running will still be there.


    That's it,
    Shawn Brink
