In need of some serious geekdom here: I use my ancient Asus laptop as my "TV" - It's hooked via HDMI cable to my rig's TV and I download or stream everything I watch.
It's slow as molasses now, so that is its only function.
It started out new with Win 7 and I've kept up with OS updates so as not to lose touch with any updates for software I use. It's been running on 10 since 10 became available to legacy users, but the big update on/about Dec 19th "broke" my video: After it was done updating I had nothing but a black screen.
After researching this, I was able to force Windows to roll back to the previous version by doing a hard reset 3 times, so now I have video again, but the recommendation was to update one's video drivers.
There was another Win 10 update after that and still all is well with my video, but I would really like to find the latest driver(s) for my video card, even if I don't install them now. Asus support "is not allowed to" give me any info about my video card, which I could use to find updated drivers for it.
Sorry for the whole story - I guess my short question would be: Where do I/Can I muck about in my system to find out what video card is installed?
