When I put in my graphics card for the first time, I had the drivers installed and my previous driver uninstalled (I think) However, when I started my PC, my computer is usually at 1920x1080, but now, I'm at 1024x768. Also, when I tried to play Overwatch instead of me having the usual 30 fps, I had 1 and it said my graphics card was the "Microsoft Basic Display Driver." So, I went to device manager and found that under display adapters was my graphics card, but with a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark next to it. When I clicked on it, it said I had error code 43. Then, I used a DDU and reinstalled it. This diddn't work so I tried about another 3-4 times. Still didn't work! Please help! Also, if it helps, I have a lenovo H50-50.
 
Solution
Remove the video card, check for a chipset and BIOS update from Lenovo, run those if newer ones are available. Then install the card again, get the latest drivers from nVidia and see if that works. Error 43 is often a power issue, maybe the PCIe slot is not providing enough power to run the card. OEM systems can have issues with some models of add-on cards.
