Windows 10: Hardware Error on recent Nvidia Graphics driver

On December 6, I installed what was then the latest Nvidia Driver for my production PC's GTX 1070. For six days after that, I have experienced one or more Windows Hardware Errors as detailed in this screencap from Reliability Monitor:







Yesterday, Nvidia came out with a new driver version 417.35. I'm installing it now, in hopes it's more stable than the preceding version. I ended up rolling back to version 25.21.14.1681 (aka 416.81 in Nvidia lingo) which stopped those hardware errors cold. I'll follow up if they resume after the 417.35 install.

Sigh.

Nvidia driver doesn't detect the graphic hardware

Did you notice that on Device Manager the Display adapter doesn't appear ?

And I tried installing the latest driver from Nvidia site and it didn't detect any compatible graphic hardware

Hi Ramzi,

Thanks for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

This issue might occur when the Nvidia driver which you are trying to install is not compatible with Windows 10.

I would suggest you to Uninstall the Nvidia driver and download the Nvidia for Windows 10 and try installing it.

Follow the below steps:

Step 1: Uninstall Nvidia driver from the device manager.

1) Press Windows key + X key when you are at desktop.

2) Select Device Manager.

3) Expand Display Adapter.

4) Right on the Nvidia Driver and click on
Uninstall.

Step 2: Download Nvidia driver for Windows 10 and try installing it.

Nvidia Graphics Driver problem

Hello there. Recently, I updated my Windows 10 Pro "1803" to "1809". Reason I did that; that my drivers were 7 months old to play WoW's newest expansion. My graphics drivers version were "391.35" and I needed to update it to the newest version, which is
"416.94". At first it gave the "This Nvidia graphics driver is not compatible with this version of windows" therefore I updated my windows version as I stated above. After updating and doing a full format. I tried again with the hopes of installing my newest
driver. Yet now it gave 2 error messages: 1-"This Nvidia graphics driver is not compatible with this version of windows" 2-"This graphics driver could not find compatible graphics hardware". I tried everything on forums, updating old drivers manually etc.
None of them did work. If you could help me solve this problem, I will be real happy. Thanks in advance.

note: I know this might not be the place for asking help to solve a Nvidia problem, but since it includes Windows. Im curious.
