Windows 10: Can't install Latest Nvidia Driver

Hi,

I'm having a problem installing the latest nvidia driver (456.71) on a clean install of Windows.

System specs are:

• Dell Precision T1600
• Windows 10 x64 version 2004 (build 19041.572) All updates applied.
• CPU: Intel Xeon E31270 @ 3.4 GHz
• 16 GB DDR3 RAM
• Nvidia GeForce GT 730 (Windows installed driver version 388.13)

I downloaded the driver from Nvidia and double clicked to launch. While doing a system compatibility check, I receive the message, "NVIDIA installer cannot continue. This NVIDIA is not compatible with this version of Windows. The graphics driver could not find compatible graphics hardware."

• I have tried unininstalling the windows installed nvidia drivers using DDU in Safe Mode as outlined here:

https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce...-with/2196734/

I was NOT connected to any networks when I then tried to install the new driver.

• I also tried modifying the nvaci.inf file as described in this video:

https://youtu.be/XD_Sc4IyrvU

The problem with that was, I could only modify the very first line the video told me to. All the following lines to be modified did not exist.

So, I'm at a loss. It would be really nice to have this old machine completely up to date. Thanks in advance for any help.

I cant get drivers to install

Read my guide, goes step buy step for nvidia driver install. Though I use a different driver cause I got 8 series, same method of installation

 

What Drivers To Install

Even though I purchased Windows 7 about two weeks ago, I have not installed it yet. I just want to make sure I install all of the correct things. So, I should have to install

• latest Intel Chipset Driver
• latest Intel Matrix Storage Manager (is this the only RAID thing I have to install?)
• latest Soundmax ADI Audio Driver
• latest Marvell Yukon Gigabit Ethernet Driver
• latest Marvell SATA driver
• latest ATI CCC and Driver
• Windows 7 should install the hyperthreading driver by itself right? Vista did.

 

Error: The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28) for NVidia MX250 Graphics card

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



The error code indicates, "The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)". We need to reinstall the device driver manually. I suggest you to refer the steps for
Code 28 mentioned in the article
Error codes in Device Manager in Windows and see if that helps.



You can try to run NVidia Auto-Detect and see if that helps you in installing the NVidia drivers. You can run NVidia Auto-Detect from
NVidia website. You can also check for the pending updates on the computer and install them. Please refer the section
How do I manually update my PC? from the article
Windows Update: FAQ.



If the issue persists, I suggest you to try the steps mentioned below to install the drivers:

1. Press Windows key + X and select
   Device Manager.
   
2. Right click on the NVidia driver and select
   Update Driver.
   
3. Click on Browser my computer for driver software.
   
4. Now, click on Let me pick from a list.
   
5. Select the NVidia MX250 driver and click on
   Next.
   
6. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation.
   
7. Restart the computer once the driver is installed.
   

Please reply with the status of the issue, we will be glad to help you further.
