[dba-Tech] Windows 10 drivers NVIDIA geforce monitor

[John R Bartow]

That worked. Windows 10 Installed "Microsoft Basic Display Adapter" for the
NVIDIA display. I then went to NVidia's site and scanned for drivers and it
told me I had the latest and specified the card series and all the fine
details. That part took a while because their site's device scanner uses
java and Edge won't work with it so I had to install Firefox and Java right
away.

But news is - it works. And it looks fine. Not a game player so it's good
enough for me.

Now on to getting MySQL running on it...

OK, still failed with a warning about the NVIDIA card.

Will now install a fresh SSD and see if it will install fresh from a USB
stick.

Since it's been quite a while since I tried the first time, I will try a
direct upgrade to Windows 10 first and see if I have the same result.
