I just got a GTX 1050 Ti  and it installed my but it's not working and it made my aspect ratio 1024x768 instead of the usual 1920:1080. I am aware that this is most likely a driver issue, but i updated my driver and I know that I think it's the correct one, but I'm not 100% sure. Also, it says that my card is the Microsoft basic display driver while before I installed the graphics card, it said I had intel HD graphics 4400. Next, when I could usually rrun overwatch at 20-30 FPS, when I opened it after the graphics card, it ran at 1 fps and It said I was using  Microsoft basic display driver. Also, my computer keeps crashing whenever I plug it in. I just updated my power supply and it's still broken! Please help!

Oh well that's not right xD

 

Download Display Driver Uninstaller and use it to delete every driver; Intel, Nvidia, doesn't matter. Once your computer is clean of drivers, install the latest version again. Do it from the website and not a disc that it may have come with

First, no idea what you mean by "updated power supply."

 

Quesion, do you have your monitor plugged into the graphics card or the motherboard?

 

And, as @Energycore said, you kinda need to install the Nvidia drivers...

 

Also, what GPU did you have before this?

Make sure to quote me or tag me when responding to me, or I might not know you replied! Examples:

And make sure you do it by hitting the quote button at the bottom left of my post, and not the one inside the editor!

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.

I tried to do that already and it still didn't work. I spent like 9-10 hours trying to fix this

Is your monitor connected to the GPU? If it's connected to the motherboard you'll want to get it out of there.

Try to wipe drivers again then install a different driver version. Make sure it's one for your OS

Is your GPU's power connector if any connected to the PSU?

What PSU?

Try it again. It really should work.

 

Use DDU to wipe all your drivers. I'm assuming you have Windows 10 64 bit, so download the drivers from here:

http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/113448/en-us

 

Also, if you want you could restart after using ddu and restart after installing the drivers. It shouldn't make a difference but you might as well.

 

Also, what are the specs of the rest of your pc?

I had a somewhat similar solution when I installed my 960 last summer. The GPU installed and worked, drivers and everything. But when I went to update, the driver installer said that no Nvidia GPU was found. The problem was that Intel HD graphics was still being read as the primary display adapter, which probably could have been fixed easier than the way I did it. In order to solve this issue, I needed to reset the primary display adapter. The easiest way that I thought of was to re-flash my BIOS (which I did using the ASUS BIOS flash utility tool). Turns out that it was a perfect fix, no more issues with driver updates
