this Nvidia graphics driver is not compatible with this version of windows

Hello there. Recently, I updated my Windows 10 Pro "1803" to "1809". My graphics drivers version were "391.35" and I needed to update it to the newest version, which is "419.17". 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.

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

 

Frustrating problem: nVidia installer cannot continue the graphics driver could not find compatible graphics hardware

I upgraded 2 days ago to windows 10, my pc meets double the requirements for the OS, but I have this problem with my Geforce 210 GPU. It is in the compatible graphics cards list, but windows 10 won't recognize it no matter what. It's not even listed as
a display adapter in device manager, but after a lot of searching, i found it is listed as "Generic pnp monitor". I tried to uninstall the drivers and install them manually but the setup keeps giving me the "nvidia installer cannot continue the graphics driver
could not find compatible graphics hardware" message, and that's because windows can't detect my graphics card. I got the latest driver from nVidia, I tried to install the geforce experience, but it gave me the same nVidia installer cannot continue message.
I tried removing the card and all the usual stuff but it doesn't work. I have tried to reinstall the OS 3 times, but it didn't work. I have a lot of knowledge about drivers and how they must be installed because i have my own pc service company, but this is
a very special case and it just looks like there's no solution for this. I have tried for 2 days in a row to fix this, but there's just not any way i know that can fix it. If somebody knows how to fix this I would really appreciate it, because I'm getting
really frustrated.
