hi i have a problem to share,
i bought a new pc with GeForce GTX 1050ti and as i run the driver setup it checks the system for a bet, and than gives me this "the nvidia graphics driver is not compatible with this version of windows".
now I tried to do it a few times and turnd it of and on (the pc and the graphic card form divece manager) but still the same, i also downloded the driver from nvidia but still no good.

the other option was to up garde my win 10 64 and it will install it ?automaticle? but my win 10 will not upgrade above build 10240 (i dont knew why tried evry thing over ther two but with no success)

now i dont know what to do maybe you can help me random stranger?
(sory for gramer issues, eng not my first lang)

I'm having the same issue as this user. Trying to install 378.49 (or any previous version) I get two warnings:

  • This driver is not compatible with this version of windows.
    This graphics driver could not find compatible hardware.
It's definitely an Nvida 1070ti card, and my windows version is 1607 (OS Build 14393.693).

I've tried using DDU (a driver cleaner/uninstaller) and your suggestion of the system scan and repair came up with no issues.

Any other thoughts? This is frustrating!
 


Hi Doommunky. There's no such thing as a 1070Ti, so am guessing you meant a 1050Ti? Can you see the card in Device Manager and/or your BIOS?
