If you’re on GTX 1060 graphics card, and found that your monitor resolution is rather poor, you’re not alone. Many Windows users are reporting this problem like you.
Updating your graphics card driver to the latest version should fix the problem for you. Well, locating the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 graphics driver is not hard, but the tricky part is how to install and update it properly.
Read on and follow the easy-doing steps with screen shots below to get your NVIDIA graphics card driver updated.
1) Go to NVIDIA official support website to search for the correct GeForce GTX 1060 graphics driver for your operating system. Download it onto your computer.
2) On your keyboard, press the Start button, type cmd in the search box and click Command Prompt.
3) Type in msconfig and press Enter.
4) Go to Boot tab and click Safe boot. Click OK.
You’ll restart your computer into safe mode. Make sure all your files have been saved and click Restart to move on.
5) In safe mode, go to Device Manager.

6) Go to Driver tab and click Uninstall.
When prompted to confirm the uninstall, press OK.
You might want to restart your computer after the uninstall.
7) Run the installation of the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 setup file that you just downloaded.
