  1. GPU driver confusion


    I have an app to update my drivers Norton driver updater, but still when i leave my computer on it will occasionally shut off, and when I turn on my computer, i get a blue screen with the error message "nvlddmkm.sys has failed." I have heard talk that this issue is related to GPU drivers, but all of my GPU drivers are up to date.this only happens occasionally like 6/25 after my computer shuts off due to either overheating or something else im not sure

    :)

  2. How do you uninstall chipset drivers?

    I'm installing a new mobo so I need to uninstall the intel 865g drivers to make way for the P35 drivers.

    Can't find any uninstall options in add/remove programs and intel chipset inst listed in driver cleaner.

    Any suggestions? *Confused GPU driver confusion :confused:

    Swapping Nvidia GPUs - What To Do About Drivers?

    Thanks to you both. Will try the new GPU and driver and see how I get on. - - - Updated - - - I have another basic question. I visited the Nvidia site for downloads - Official GeForce Drivers | NVIDIA When I enter my details of my new card and system details in the driver search (Geforce GT730 GPU, Windows 10 64 Bit OS and game ready option) I get a long list of different options for downloads. The top 7 results are for something called 'Geforce Security Update Driver'. Then below these there are several game ready drivers listed. What is a Geforce Security Update Driver? Is this actually just a driver for my new GPU, or something else? Is this the driver I need? Do I pick the top one on the list, ie. the latest version? Or do I need one of the older game ready drivers further down the list. I'm confused by all the options. I'm not really a gamer, but there isn't a browsing and watching porn ready driver listed on the Nvidia site. *Smile Maybe there's a gap in the market. Please help me in my confusion as to which driver download I need.

    Custom Driver : Intel HD Graphics & ATI Combo (Alpha) - by nIGHTmAYOR

    according to laptop support page they do list an old downloadable driver for intel for windows 7 , weather this is related to there being several variants of that laptop or this laptop has switchable graphics i may just suggest you reset the bios and see if things change , if yes you may be able to apply step 2 , if not then apply step 4 and call it today , you are still better off being on the high performance gpu .

    Out of curiosity can you take a snap shot from Settings > System > Display. Scroll down and click the “Graphics Settings” ?
