A simple restart is often all that is required to resolve the issue. If the problem still persists even after the restart, the computer must be restarted in safe mode, and the problematic device driver must be uninstalled.
You can follow the below steps in order to resolve this issue:
1. Update All Device Drivers
Problems in device drivers are usually what cause blue screen errors in Windows operating systems. You can try updating all device drivers to fix most of these problems. However, in this case we are pretty sure that it is a graphics driver related problem. You should upgrade the graphics driver to solve this problem. You can do this by going to your computer manufacturer’s website and looking for your computer model there. Once you find your computer model, download the latest version of the graphics driver and install it on Windows 7. In case you bought the graphics card separately, go to the graphics card’s manufacturer’s website and download the graphics driver from there.
2. Uninstall Or Disable The Driver If upgrading to the new driver isn’t doing you any good, then the manufacturer is probably yet to release a suitable driver yet. In that case, you should Disable the current driver in Device manager and reboot the PC. Here’s how you do it:
Go to Device Manager.
Expand the Display Drivers category by clicking the arrow next to it.
Right-Click the device -> click Disable.
See if it solves your problem or not.
3. Install pending Windows Updates Make sure your computer is up to date with the latest Windows updates available.
Click Start
Type update in the search box
Select Check for Updates from the results list
If there are updates available, click Install Updates
Restart your computer.
4. Restore to an earlier date Use System Restore to restore your computer to an earlier date.Make sure you’re logged in as Administrator when performing the following steps:
Click Start
Type system restore in the search box
Select System Restore from the search results
Continue with the wizard steps to restore your computer to an earlier date
When I connect an external microphone to the jack, it is not working. I can see it in the "Sound" tab, but the levels is very low. I have tried with several microphones.
