[markiilloydii]

At the beginning my OS tried to Install a driver (nVidia - Graphics Adapter WDDM1.1, Graphics Adapter WDDM1.2, Graphics Adapter WDDM1.3, Graphics Adapter WDDM2.0 - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB) but it failed. I dont know the reason. I kept retrying but nothing happens.

try running DDU (display driver uninstaller) while in safe mode. then reinstall the driver when done. should fix your issues.

I dont know how good sir. Im still learning about these things. If it is ok with you to show me step by step? Thank you so much sir

1. install the most recent DDU from the link posted
http://www.guru3d.com/files-get/display-driver-uninstaller-download,20.html

2. go to start menu and right click it, choose run.

3. type msconfig

4. choose the boot tab. then click safe boot and then restart.

5. run DDU and when done it should restart the computer.

6. reinstall the newest driver from nvidia.com for your OS.

7 while installing driver choose clean install. driver will install then reboot. you should be good at that point.

I am now at step 6. What update do you mean? The windows or the nvidia app?

 

[atomicWAR]

go to nvidia.com

then click country (if needed)

Then click in the upper left hand corner "Drivers" and choose "Geforce Drivers"

on the screen the shows next under manual driver search. Choose geforce 10 series and then gtx 1060 below that...followed by your version of windows and then start search. then choose the newest WHQL driver released 372.54...download and install

 

[markiilloydii]

it says " this NVIDIA graphics driver is not compatible with this version of windows."

 

[atomicWAR]

that means you choose the wrong version of windows...according to the driver. what version of windows do you have?

[atomicWAR]

The drivers for the the 10 series of NVidia cards were based on the more recent versions of windows.

To fix the issue you need to let windows perform an update. When you start the update, windows will display which updates it's downloading - you should see the update called "NVIDIA driver update for NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB". Let the update finish, then reboot and try installing the NVidia drivers again,

what if windows identifies the update for my NVDIA GEForce GTX 1060 3GB but keeps failing to install it?
