Graphics card not detected

elasticness

Hey guys, so i recently got a pc and it has a GTX 1060 6gb, but in afterburner it says Microsoft Basic Display Adapter. My hdmi is plugged into the GPU and the GPU is plugged into the motherboard. 

the gpu is on, but it wont let me select the 1060in afterburner or anything else. In afterburner the only gpu option is GPU1: Microsoft basic display adapter. everything else works fine, just my pc isnt detecting my gpu.

 

please help,

Regards

If it says "Microsoft basic Display adapter" its most likley caused by no drivers being installed on the system. Go to this site and put in the right information: https://www.geforce.com/drivers

i will do that, but also on geforce experience i get an error that says its not compatible with my operating system or somethin?

any help with that?
