    Windows updates nvidia drivers and does it wrong!


    Hello, everyone!


    I have alienware 15 r3 with Alienware Graphics Ampliphier connected to it.


    Hence, I have 2 videochips - nvidia GT1060 mobile and Nvidia Titan XP desktop. With Nvidia Desktop driver manually downloded all works fine.


    Until Microsoft get its update with notebok drivers and after I need to reinstall drivers, cause some of video chips won't work.



    Today I got second update in last week which again has broken resolution of small display connects to 1060.


    Can someone tell me how to turn off video chip drivers autoupdate?


    Best Regards.

    :)

    NVIDIA Adds Windows 8 to GeForce Driver Update Stack

    AMD may have been the first to be out with drivers for its Radeon GPUs that are optimized for Windows 8 (WDDM 1.2), but NVIDIA went a step ahead of "special-releases" for its GeForce drivers, and added Windows 8 to its update stack, meaning that Windows 8 will feature in the list of operating systems to pick from, to download drivers. NVIDIA will constantly update these drivers along with mainline releases for Windows 7/Vista and XP. The latest such driver is 296.17. This driver supports GeForce and Quadro GPUs, and according to NVIDIA, is a quick-update over 295.73 WHQL, with the addition of performance optimization for Blacklight: Retribution.

    NVIDIA driver update for NVIDIA GeForce GT 640M LE — 0x800f0102

    Hi,

    Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community. I understand that you have an issue with installing
    NVIDIA driver update for NVIDIA GeForce GT 640M. I will surely help you to fix this issue.

    This issue could have occurred due to these reasons:

    1. Incorrect Windows Update settings.

    2. Corrupt Windows Update components.

    To understand the issue better let me know, from where you are installing NVIDIA driver update? Is it through Windows Update or through manufacturer website?

    If you are installing NVIDIA driver update through Windows Update follow these steps:

    Method 1:

    I suggest you to run “Windows Update troubleshooter” to diagnose the exact issue.

    a. Press Windows key from the keyboard.

    b. Type “Troubleshooting” without quotes in the search box.

    c. Select “View all” option from the left panel.



    d. Then select “Windows Update” option from the list and follow the onscreen instructions.

    Method 2:

    If the issue persists, I suggest you to try the steps under the section
    Manually reset Windows Update components and check if it helps.
    Resetting Windows Update Components will fix corrupt Windows Update Components.

    How do I reset Windows Update components?

    Method 3:

    If the issue persists, I suggest you to download and install latest driver for NVIDIA GeForce GT 640M LE from manufacturer website. I see that there are no Windows 10 drivers available for you graphics card model. You may install latest graphics driver in
    compatibility mode and check if it helps.

    To install graphics driver in compatibility mode follow these steps:

    a. Right-click on the setup file of the
    graphics driver and select “Properties”.

    c. Select “Compatibility” Tab.

    d. Place a check mark next to “Run this program in Compatibility mode” and
    select latest Windows version from the drop down list.

    e. Let the driver install and then check the functionality.
