Windows 10 came out today, why do you think that any driver on a CD even has a chance to support it?

Yeah, it's kind of a thing in tech support. Sad part is, half the time, even if the user says yes, the solution is turning it on and off again, perhaps just in a different way. -_-

That's what I learned. They feel insulted if you ask them to perform basic steps, so try to disguise the basic steps. Pretend it's part of some other troubleshooting process, for example have them try some step which won't actually affect anything then tell them to reboot the machine so that "change" can take effect.

First, we need to know what is your graphic card (company and model) to be sure it's 100% compatible with Windows 10.
Second, your driver surely didn't install correctly, because you would have a true graphic card name... Where did you get your driver?
Third, it may be a DirectX problem, but you need to correct that driver first.
Give us more info and we may be able to help your further. Thanks!

Does it display properly in device manager? If not, it's definitely driver end. I would go to the manufacturer website and download the correct drivers manually.

Did you try ayy lmaoing it? Go to command propt and write "start setup ayylmao.exe -config 4tg" that should force check DirectXxx, all the drivers and files integrity.

That happened to me too, if you are on nvidia or amd you can use the standard DDU to clean your old graphics drivers out. It will clean all remnants of it and reboot, then you can grab your fresh win 10 drivers from nvidia or amd site. If you have an intel card or a graphics card you can't update and have to rely on the company like HP or something then I can't be of much help.

My specific issue was geforce experience loaded up and said I had no device driver and when I tried to manually install the updated drivers from nvidia's site they failed completely. I basically had my old drivers still installed, but invisible to windows 10 and that was causing significant problems. As soon as I used DDU and rebooted the installation went perfectly.

I don't have the newest version so hopefully it's the same but you just extract everything to a directory and open the display driver uninstaller exe. There will be a dropdown box for nvidia or amd, just pick whatever your card is and then do the "clean and restart" recommended option.

So, I just updated to Windows 10 myself, and I think my graphics drivers got broken in the update, since things are going weird. However, Windows Update should now grab drivers automatically, so if the drivers it grabs don't work and you have restarted, you'll probably have to manually update drivers.
