Uh hello guys, welcome to this video. So
0:02
in this video, I'll show you some ways
0:03
by which you can fix and troubleshoot
0:06
any kind of problems related to your
0:08
graphics card or GPU. So the very first
0:12
thing we can do is you can go to task
0:14
manager
0:16
and simply right in the task manager
0:19
simply go to the performance
0:22
and if you see you will see if you have
0:25
a dedicated graphics card it will list
0:27
right here. So in my case it is Nvidia.
0:30
So it is this is the Intel built-in GPU
0:34
and this is your custom graphics card.
0:37
So if there is some kind of issue right
0:39
here it will rightly display. But in my
0:43
case there is no issue. You can see the
0:45
graphics card is perfectly working. And
0:47
in your case simply check that if the
0:49
card is consuming
0:52
if the card is working or not. So if the
0:55
card is not working it will be 0%.
0:58
So now we go to the next way by which we
1:01
can do this. So simply type run and
1:05
right here you just need to type here dx
1:10
d i a g. Simply type this. It's
1:13
developed by DirectX and it provides you
1:16
with this troubleshooting tool,
1:18
diagnostic tool that you can actually
1:21
it display information about your system
1:23
right here. It basically makes some
1:26
checks and then it shows you if any sort
1:30
of problem is there, it will show you
1:31
this right here in the section and then
1:34
you can show
1:37
you can say no problems found with your
1:39
built-in graphics card which is the
1:41
Intel one. This is your custom one which
1:44
is Nvidia. So if any sort of problem is
1:46
there, it will show you the problem. But
1:48
in my case, it is saying that no problem
1:51
found.
1:52
Same it will be checking for audio
1:55
driver as well.
1:57
All these things. So if any sort of
1:59
problems are there, it will this tool
2:01
will show the problem. And let me show
2:04
you the next way. and then go to device
2:07
manager and right here go to display
2:11
adapters right here. So inside this if
2:15
this card has some kind of problem then
2:18
it will show some red arrow right here.
2:20
But in my case as you can see the device
2:22
is working properly
2:25
and if you just want to update the
2:26
driver simply click that button. So many
2:30
of the issues comes of the driver as
2:32
well. So simply click on driver. If you
2:34
have the driver on your computer, the
2:36
latest driver, simply navigate or search
2:39
automatically.
2:41
So the best drivers are automatically
2:44
installed.
2:46
So these are some of the ways by which
2:47
you can do troubleshoot
2:50
and there are some third party tools are
2:52
also there. One such tool is this one
2:56
graphics card benchmark tool. You can
2:59
download this on your system. So it will
3:03
list out problems. One such other tool
3:06
is for mark. This is again a
3:10
tool for testing out your GPU graphics
3:13
card. And one other tool is 3D mark.
3:17
This is also
3:19
a good tool troubleshooting tool. It's
3:22
only applicable I think for Mac
3:24
operating system. So it's not for
3:26
Windows.
3:29
So these are some some of the things you
3:30
can do this
3:32
and also check out my website free media
3:36

3:39
tools.
