Recent updates screwedup Video Card

Recent batch of updates has shut down my video card... won't run even the
Windows screen savers... now what? How can I get my video card funtional
again?
I haven't tried going into andtrying the 'restore to prior restore point'
yet...

It took three tries to get it to reset the graphics... font sizes went huge...

IMHO:
Microsoft did not create nor do they support your hardware. Do not get
drivers for said hardware from them.

Download and install the latest driver for your video card from the video
card manufacturer. Set it the way you need to.

Don't use any Microsoft driver updates available on
the Windows Update site.

Always use the drivers available from the PC manufacturer
or in your case the Video Card Manufacture or PC manufacturer.

Hi there,

Your information is almost correct

If it is concerns Microsoft hardware DO use the drivers on Windows update.

Do a driver rollback.
