Hello all. I am running Windows 10 Pro 64-bit. My display adapter is a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050. Windows 10 has a plug and play driver for the GTX 1050 that works fine, but the driver is old (2017).
I have installed a new application that demands newer drivers. The application would not launch with the plug and play driver from 2017, so I installed the latest NVIDIA drivers 461.40. This problem solved the issue with the new application and the new application runs fine.
The problem is when I try to use Adobe Premiere Elements with the new NVIDIA drivers. I am getting the following error: "We have detected generic Microsoft’s display driver on this machine. To get a better and faster playback performance, please update your display driver."
I can go into device manager and see that I am not running a default display adapter. Device manager says GTX 1050 with nvidia drivers dated 2021. As part of troubleshooting, I tried different versions of the NVIDIA drivers. I tried both "game ready" and "studio" versions, I even tried getting not so new drivers from mid 2020. Right now, the only way I can get Premiere Elements to run is to use Microsoft's plug and play Windows 10 driver from 2017. This limits my ability to install newer drivers that are needed to support newer applications or technologies. I can't be the only person dealing with this right? Has anyone heard of this? Thank you.
