Home / Driver Updater / Graphics
Stuck low resolution means Windows is running a basic display driver instead of your GPU's own. Flicker, artifacts and game crashes often come from a version that doesn't match your card. A free scan identifies your GPUs - both of them, on laptops - and shows their driver state.
Your PC is currently running: Windows
Device Manager shows “Microsoft Basic Display Adapter” - the real GPU driver isn't loaded.
The screen glitches under load, or Device Manager shows the GPU with an error like Code 43 or 32.
Integrated and discrete graphics each need the right driver, and they fail independently.
A game refuses to start until the graphics driver is updated - but which of the near-identical packages is right?
A free scan can identify the installed hardware and show available driver information.
The application identifies the hardware installed on your PC and checks the current driver information.
See detected devices, installed driver versions and available updates. Nothing changes during the scan.
Review the results and decide which available updates you want to apply.
A license is required only if you choose to apply the available updates.

Not necessarily. The newest driver targets the newest games and cards; on older GPUs a previous stable version is sometimes the better choice. The scan shows what's installed and what's available - the decision stays with you.
Yes - the scan shows the installed graphics driver version and the updates available for your exact GPU, which is what games check at startup.
It can - multi-monitor output depends on the GPU driver, and a basic or broken driver often limits you to one screen. Cables and input selection matter too, so check those alongside the driver state.
No. Nothing changes during the scan. Driver updates are applied only after you review the results and choose what to update.
Yes. Each detected item can be reviewed, applied or skipped individually. Backup and restore options are available before updates are applied, so a previous driver version can be restored if necessary.
The button downloads Outbyte Driver Updater, a Windows desktop application. The website itself does not scan your computer in the browser - the check runs in the application after you install and start it.
The scan and results are free. A license is required only if you choose to download and apply the available updates. Current pricing and license terms are shown before purchase.
Supports Windows 11 and 10 · Uninstall anytime via Settings → Apps · If no updates are found, the scan still shows the current driver state of your devices.
