How to fix 'Your PC can't project to another screen' after win 8.1 updating?

8,854

My machine has Intel and NVIDIA cards.

I tried many times to re-install the Nvidia driver and changed to the new version but cannot resolve this issue. Then I changed to a new method. I changed the Intel driver instead and got a newer version. It worked for me!

I fixed it by:

  1. disabling "Intel HD Graphics driver" (not Nvidia)
  2. installing the "HD Graphics diver" with new version (download from Intel website)
  3. restarting the machine

    After updating to win 8.1 from Win 8, I could not project to another screen. Message says

    Your PC can't project to another screen

    I tried to re-install the diver and did not resolve the issue.

    I would strongly advise NOT using Display Driver Uninstaller. I have seen hundreds of questions about problems caused by this application.
