Can't Install nVidia driver
Posted: Tue Aug 30, 2016 11:31 pm
I'm running 64 bit Win10, btw. Can't tell if I have the Anniversary Update or not. (Inscrutable Windows Update)
So, I got access to BF1 Beta today, and it required an upgrade to my graphics driver. I've had massive issues with this in the past, but I can't remember how I finally got it to work last time. I tried updating through GeForce Experience - failed. I tried downloading the driver from nvidia, installation failed. I restarted. Tried again with GeForce Experience - failed. Restarted. Downloaded driver failed.
Uninstalled device in Device Manager (which, strangely, didn't make my screen even flicker).
Scanned for Hardware Changes - detects a display device and uses the Microsoft Basic Display Adapter.
Some seconds later it shows up as NVIDIA GeForce 760 GTX with a yellow triangular ! sign for the icon.
Some seconds later the device is moved to the Other Devices group as a Display with that same yellow ! sign.
The properties of this Display say there is no driver installed (code 28)
Any recommendations to get the driver installed?
BF1 punked me, and now I can't play ANY 3D graphics games. Not even Rocket League
