Troubleshooting Guide To Fix Display or Monitor Issue with Lenovo PC

Almost every PC and laptop owner knows the importance of keeping Windows, installed applications, security software, and device driver updates. However, only a few users know why driver needs to be updated and how to update them. This post answers these basic questions and helps fix display and monitor issues faced by Lenovo users.

What is a driver & why do you need to keep them updated?

 A driver is a software that transmits instructions between a PC’s operating system and connected external or internal devices. When this software (device driver) is outdated, missing, or corrupt, the PC fails to communicate the instructions received from the devices, making them useless. Therefore, for the proper functioning of a device, drivers need to be updated. A straightforward method to update drivers is to install Windows update > optional update. However, sometimes Windows fail to provide the latest updates. For this reason, a third-party driver updater or visiting the manufacturer’s website is recommended.

Below we explain different ways to update drivers. You can pick the method that you find convenient and update drives. Doing so will help fix the Lenovo display driver issue on Windows 11, 10, and lower versions.

Update Lenovo Monitor Driver Automatically (Recommended)

If you don’t want to update the driver on your own, or you don’t want to risk updating an incorrect driver due to a lack of knowledge, you can do it automatically with Advanced Driver Updater.

Advanced Driver Updater will auto-detect your system details and outdated drivers running on it. The program will then show compatible driver updates downloaded and installed with a button. You don’t need to provide any information to get the correct driver update. The driver updating tool will handle it all on its own.

You can use the FREE or the registered version to update the driver. The only difference is trial version allows for updating individual drivers, which is a bit time-consuming. While the registered version allows updating all in a go. To use Advanced Driver Updater, follow these steps:

  • Download and install Advanced Driver Updater.

  • Run the tool and click Start Scan Now to instruct the software to look for outdated drivers and show compatible updates.

  • To automatically download and install updates for all outdated drivers, click Update All. However, if you are using the trial version, use the Update driver link next to each driver updated.

  • Restart the PC to save changes. This should fix monitor or display issues you face with the Lenovo laptop or PC.
