Windows 10: Looking for correct video card driver

I'm using Win10TP 64-bit. I'm having trouble finding a correct driver for my NVIDIA GeForce 8600GT PCIe card. The OS just lists my driver as "Microsoft Basic Display Adapter". I did find one link below that lists a bunch of drivers for this cards but I don't know which one to use. Anyone know? Thanks.

WINDOWS 10 UPGRADE

Did you upgrade (manually visited the manufacturer's web page, located the correct device driver for your video card for Windows 10 usage and installed it) your video card device drivers?

 

Wrong video card????

I just upgraded and it has the wrong video card help????? It shows Microsoft Basic Display Driver. I gave a GeForce 460 Hawk. I have the correct driver, but it will not let me install the correct one. In the properties I can not uninstall the driver. The
box is grayed out so I can not click it. I am looking for a way to uninstall the basic one and put the correct one in. If anyone can help I will appeicate it a lot.

 

Hi

I just downloaded and installed the latest drivers from Nvidia and they work fine.
I'm running a Geforce GTX 680 card.

I got them here...

NVIDIA Driver Downloads - Automatically Detect NVIDIA Products

For me it detected my card and showed me the driver, which I would guess may be the same driver for your card. The drivers aren't necessarily card specific.

It will install the whole package that includes Geforce Experience which will tell you when to update etc.

When you install the driver select custom install and check the box that says Clean Install.
It works better that way.

First things first, always try to download the official Graphics Drivers from Drivers - Download NVIDIA Drivers
Select "Geforce 8 Series", then "8600GT", then "Windows 8.1 64 bit". There will be Windows 10 drivers soon, but for now 8.1 drivers are fine.

ps: or just click the other guy's link. NVIDIA uses the same driver set for all their modern cards so you'll be good. Just make sure you get the 8.1 64bit ones.

 

Here's the one you need, 340.52.
