Recently had to do a system wipe and re installed windows and everything. After I wiped and re installed windows however, none of my games from origin or steam would launch and I found out its because the computer can't detect the graphics card. it only comes up as standard VGA adapter in device manager. i downloaded Speccy to see if that would pick up the graphics card so i could get the proper drivers for it or something, but it still only recognized it as the standard VGA adapter. any idea how to fix this?
