help isn't sending me pictures that look right.
So I have the M271V2 monitor and a 4080 SUPER. After some Windows updates, my screen and games are set to 4K. Even after trying to roll back both updates and drivers several times, they still default to 4K settings. Now when I play BF1, the image looks blurry and jagged even if I try for 1440p. It's not like this before. I noticed it because of bad lines across my screen while playing. I haven't seen those lines with other games, but right now my picture quality is just very poor. When I uninstall all GPU drivers properly and restart the PC, a new version of the driver comes up automatically without me asking or downloading anything. So I don't even know where it's getting that driver from. I am thinking there are two possible reasons: maybe a bad display port cable, or some weird driver conflict that can't be fixed with software. I also think Windows 11 might be causing the problem, and my graphics card could be broken too. Even without GPU drivers installed straight after booting from a clean uninstall, my screen forces me to see 4K on its own. It just started happening out of nowhere in a bizarre way. I have tried reseating cables, running SFC/SCANNOW, updating the NVIDIA driver several times, uninstalling games, forcing resolution through the game settings, and changing it via Windows settings (none of these fixed the issue). My current cable is silver, not gold. Once before, an old PC wouldn't boot right because a bad low-quality cable was connected to the hard drive. Could that be causing this display port problem? If anyone can help me out, I would be forever grateful!
After I tried rolling back my Windows update and driver updates many times, my monitor and games still show 4k settings. Even after using DDU to wipe all drivers (Intel, AMD, and Nvidia) in Safe Mode, then manually installing the newest GPU driver from Nvidia's website while logged in as an administrator, it still works perfectly right after a clean reboot without any drivers installed at all. Did you install Windows in offline mode? When asking for help on this thread, I need to share my full system specs. Please tell me: CPU, cooler, motherboard, RAM, hard drive or SSD, GPU (Nvidia), power supply unit (PSU), case, the operating system, and the monitor model. Also tell me how old the PSU is besides its make and model number, plus the BIOS version on your motherboard now.
I bought this PC last year after moving to a flat and getting robbed. I didn't set up wifi because my new apartment doesn't have it, even though I had internet before. All the stuff you get when buying new hardware has been updated to the newest drivers, so the monitor, GPU, Windows, and everything else is on the latest versions.
Press the Windows key, type Advanced System Settings, choose Hardware, and go to Device Installation Settings. If it says yes, change that setting to no. This stops Windows from downloading and installing an older version of your drivers from August.
Hi, thanks for getting back to me. After taking a quick look, it looks like that item has already been picked out as selected. It seems I'm stuck and might have to wipe everything and start fresh with Windows just in case I can't figure out the rest. Sorry to hear that!
I've been trying to fix this a few times by switching between "no" and "yes" for driver reinstalls on each try. It looks like the only thing I can try is completely reinstalling Windows. Or maybe it's the graphics card that doesn't work right, or maybe my monitor?
Hi guys, suddenly my picture quality on the 1440p m27qv2 is terrible. It always forces all my games to 4K, and even when they try to scale it down from a real 4K monitor, the image looks huge but blurry at 40 or 50% instead of sharp. I've tried reinstalling drivers, resetting Windows, and nothing helps. I am completely stuck in this situation.
Just keep it simple and pick just one topic so we don't end up confused.
