In the above mentioned scenario you might be faced with various driver incompatibility problems due to producers’ lack of support which does not mean that your hardware is not Windows 10 capable (if you are aware of what you have on board), but mainly to unsupported drivers for the new OS. Windows 10 upon installation will install its own, usually basic drivers and guard them like a dog not allowing any modifications. In my case it was the unsupported driver for my ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 video card (not a new one, for sure, but under Omega drivers it has allowed me to play Mass Effect 3 with all settings maxed out; the original ATI drivers did not allow me even to play Mass Effect 1). Anyway, the basic Microsoft Display Adapter driver did could not recognize my hardware properly and I was stuck with lower screen resolution (1024 x 768) instead of the native one, which is 1280 x 800. But after toilsome hours of various unsuccessful experiments and trying out a number of different approaches, I finally managed to find a working solution and now I am writing this enjoying my native screen resolution again. As I believe there might be some people out there having similar problems that are driving them nuts, I’d like to share her in detail what action steps brought me to the successful final solution. In my case it was a problem with the video card driver, but I believe you can try my solution with any other hardware driver you find in the catalog I mention below.
Go to Microsoft’s update catalog service: (important: you need Internet Explorer for that task and let IE install an add-on to be able to use the service, you will be prompted to do so.) 2. In the search field type the driver you need, in my case it was “Mobility Radeon x1600”. I later found out that WDDM driver had to be used, the one which was signed: “ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM)” 3. Download the package. If you don’t have any file archiver in your system, download 7-zip or some similar software and install it. Extract the downloaded package to a folder and you are ready for driver installation. Now the fun begins as we are getting to banish the forced MS basic Display Adapter driver.
