Unable to install older NVIDIA Drivers on Windows 10

Hi,



Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.

• Did you try installing the driver in compatibility mode? Mostly it’s a compatibility issue which many of our customers are facing with NVIDIA.
  

I would suggest you go through the suggestion by Andre Da Costa for information about the incompatible Graphics Card and check if it helps.



Graphics card not compatible with Windows 10?



If still the issue persists then I suggest you to go to manufacturer’s website install the graphic drivers for windows 10 and if it is not available then you can install it in compatibility mode and check if it helps.

• What is the make and model of your machine?

I suggest you to enable the integrated graphics in the control panel of the Nvidia

• Did you try updating the Graphics card which you have installed recently?

This issue might have caused due to incompatibility of the display card with your machine. I suggest you to check with the manufacturer if the display card is compatible with you system and check if it helps.
