Welcome to the HP Forums!
Thank you for posting your query on this forum, it's a great place to find answers.
I reviewed your post and I understand that GPU performance is not showing in task manager.
Don’t worry, I assure you I will try my best to get this sorted.
In order that I may provide you with an accurate solution, I will need a few more details.
- When was the last time you were able to see the GPU in task manager?
- What is the Windows version on your computer?
- Have you made any software or hardware changes on the computer?
- Have you performed any troubleshooting steps before posting?
For now, I would like to inform you that you can see the GPU performance in task manager only if the Windows version is Fall creator or above.
This new feature supports both on-board and dedicated GPUs but there is one catch. Your chip’s driver must support WDDM version 2.0 or above. If your GPU’s driver doesn’t support WDDM version 2.0 or above, you simply cannot view your GPU performance in the task manager.
If there is no GPU in the Task Manager in Windows 10, try the following.
Check WDDM 2.0 Support
Open the run dialog box via the Win+R keyboard shortcut. Type in Dxdiag.exe and tap the Enter key. If you see a prompt of any sort on your screen, click ‘Yes’ on it.
When the dxdiag tool opens, go to the Display tab. In the Drivers section, look for Driver Model. If it doesn’t say WDDM 2.0, or anything above 2.0, then your driver is not compatible with this new feature.
Let me know how it goes and you have a great day!
