Facebook Twitter LinkedIn This article is a guide on how to install the latest Nvidia GeForce Notebook Driver on any Nvidia mobile GPU originally not supported by the INFs included in official Nvidia mobile GPU drivers.Upgrading laptops powered by GPUs to Windows 7 has become annoyingly tormenting. Windows’ own WDDM driver—installed by Windows 7 Setup during a fresh Windows 7 install, or provided by Windows Update—is no good, lacking many features an original Nvidia Windows Display Driver contain. That’s when all drivers OEMs provide their clients with are rather old.The latest Nvidia notebook/netbook display driver known as the Notebook GeForce Driver is compatible with both 32-bit and 64-bit editions of Microsoft Windows 7. Please note this Nvidia display driver release also supports Microsoft Windows Vista x86 / x64 operating systems.Nvidia declares in its WHQL-certified notebook driver download page that “As part of the NVIDIA Verde Notebook Driver Program, this is a reference driver that can be installed on supported NVIDIA notebook GPUs. However, please note that your notebook original equipment manufacturer (OEM) provides certified drivers for your specific notebook on their website. NVIDIA recommends that you check with your notebook OEM about recommended software updates for your notebook. OEMs may not provide technical support for issues that arise from the use of this driver.”Answering “I can’t hear you,” the common practice is to download the latest Nvidia notebook driver (32-bit / 64-bit), create a System Restore Point, and run the downloaded driver executable file.The Nvidia setup will extract to C:NVIDIADisplayDriver, but because all hardware/software companies do exist for one and only one reason and that’s to make consumers suffer, the following message is shown: The NVIDIA Setup program could not locate any drivers that are compatible with your current hardware.
Setup will now exit. The Solution: Modded INF File Updated October 29, 2011Pieter Schaar of has patched the display INF file out of the original Nvidia GPU driver INF file. All you need to do is to download the right INF depending on your Windows architecture edition (i.e., 32 bit or 64 bit), copy it at the same folder your non-working Nvidia display driver had previously extracted (e.g., C:NVIDIADisplayDriver versionWinVistaWin7 languageDisplay.Driver) and run setup.exe just inside of its upper folder. Disabling Driver Signature Enforcement on Windows 8 / Windows 8.1By default, both Windows 8.1 and Windows 8 do not allow unsigned drivers to install. Welcome to NVIDIA Setup.
I have been struggling with a Dell XPS 1730 which dumped it’s nvidea drivers during a Windows update (Aero?) – After trying endless combinations of the driver files and installing/uninstalling I found your page and IT WORKED. Well done.Two tips: Ensure any existing drivers are properly cleared by restart before following your instructions, otherwise the “cannot find compatible drivers” message persists, and secondly – this gives back the “Sleep” and “Hybernate” options that are lost by using the Windows VGA drivers.Well done that man.
Some notes:You should mention that not all drivers are available for all cards. I cannot use 259.47 WHQL Driver Download Links for instance.The instructions are slightly confusing at vary depending on the driver version for 258.96 (Windows 7 / 64-bit) the modded nv.inf files goes into C:NVIDIADisplayDriver258.96WinVistaWin7InternationalDisplay. Perhaps, you should say:Place the downloaded nv.inf file in the same directory as the other nv.inf files.Run setup.exe by double-clicking the icon.And in the end, 258.96 didn’t work for my Sony Vaio VGN-Z820G Laptop. Trying 197.16 now. Hello,I am using an Acer 5520G and upgraded the 8400m G to a 9600m GT (taken from an ASUS laptop), but couldn’t install the official drivers.
So I used your modified inf file, it installed and now the card works! I thank you so much for your efforts!There is however a small issue. It does not detect the DVI port anymore and it cannot identify my external display (BenQ G2420HD) through the VGA port. Is there some way to fix this? (I have to manually set the resolution from Nvidia Control Center, and by doing so the screen flickers abit even with the right Hz)With kind regards,Robert Sps, could you update the inf file for the new 260.99 drivers?
The post is rather old, and only updated from time to time. So it’s up to you to inspect the extracted driver setup downloaded from Nvidia website, and see where Nvidia’s own INFs are located, then you should copy the modded INF to that exact same folder.It’s probable that the latest modded INFs don’t work with your notebook Nvidia graphics card, so you need to try the more stable older ones, like the 197.16 or 258.96.Nvidia Windows 7 / Windows Vista driver download links for Verde Notebook Release 197.16: /Nvidia Windows 7 / Windows Vista driver download links for Verde Notebook Release 258.96: /. I installed 260.99 on my vaio sz650n and everything seems fine. But I couldn’t get the nvidia control panel to install. Funilly, before the installation, I couldn’t get cinema 4d or photoshop cs5 to take advantage of the openGL function cos both said it was disable.
After the installation, Cinema 4D recognised openGL function but not photoshop cs5. I wonder is it somehow during the installation, something has messed up. Like the Nvidia control panel. I will give it another try sometimes, otherwise everything else seems fine.I thank you for posting the solution here cause I was looking for something like this for a while. It is very nice of you.Thank You.
Yes i have same hardware id. I was wrong before! I had renamed the file to nwvi.inf but i should have renamed it to just nwvi.(i have file extentions hidden!!)i use windows 7 32bit ultimate on my laptop.
The brand is sony vaio vgn-sz71xn/c and have only 2gb of ram. Should i go to 4gb and windows 64?
Will i see a good improvement?also i have 2 slots of 1gb memory in each. I guess i have to buy 2 rams of 2gb each? Is there a specific type of memory that works in dual mode?and one final question. I have to get a dock for my laptop for an hdmi slot will it be able to support 1080p blue ray playback on my big full HD tv?thank you very much for your help! You are the only help online for people with vaio problems.
Be a pro and disable “hide extensions for known file types.” I always encourage my students and colleagues to doing so.Don’t go for x64 or additional RAM, instead, buy yourself an SSD, if you really are seeking speed. OEM RAM modules on high-end models like Sony VAIO SZ and Dell XPS M are very fast, and by adding another module, you’re offering yourself with more memory capacity, in the sacrifice of speed. SSDs are not mechanical and do not age like HDDs, so you can safely go for a second hand.Read my article on SSD upgrade and compare the results.The Nvidia GeForce 8400M GS GPU is a powerful graphics accelerator, and is easily capable of rendering 1080p HD content. The only problem is it gets hot, so make sure the laptop sits on a flat surface (preferably on a notebook cooler) and seriously avoid putting it on a rug, blanket, or cloth material. I’m totally against overclocking mobile Nvidia GeForce 8400M GS, because laptop’s internal cooling equipment is not even enough to cool down its standard setup.
I don’t have any idea, but it shouldn’t be like that in NFS. Test yours with CrystalMark 2004R3 version 0.9.126.452 and compare the results with the following scores–Nvidia GeForce 8400M GS on Dell XPS M1330GDI 6483Text 2238Square 794Circle 1727BitBlt 1724D2D 4526Sprite 10 485.90 FPS (48)Sprite 100 346.13 FPS (346)Sprite 500 142.48 FPS (712)Sprite 1000 87.89 FPS (878)Sprite 5000 24.71 FPS (1235)Sprite 10000 13.07 FPS (1307)OGL 18128Scene 1 10412Lines (x1000) (1973073)Scene 2 CPU (256)Scene 2 Score 7716Polygons (x1000) (490106)Scene 2 CPU (256). My laptop is the sony vaio vgn-sz71xn/c with 2gb or ddr2 667 ram, and windows 7 32bit. Am not sure if i will install 64biti downloaded the left4dead game. Put the highest settings and HD resolution.
I realised now, that no game can run in full screen. If i choose 800.600 it runs in the middle. If i choose 1024.768 it runs in a larger window but still not full screen. When i choose 1280.768 and 16:9 format it has only 2 black lines one above and one below(small ones) almost like full screen.
So my problem is that nothing runs in fullscreen automatically. Maybe its a setting? I also tryed to run as administrator still same problem.also i wanted to ask another question: should i buy a laptop with ddr3 memory instead of installing another 2 gb in my current one? The t9300 prosessor looks good.
I am interested in performance first and then gamingmaybe if i have 4gb ddr2 667,and windows 64 bit it will be even faster and not need to buy a new laptop. Quote:Hi Didn’t work for my Acer 5745G laptop.
I installed the 260.99 driver and it picked up the card. But after the restart it didn’t pick up the driver and I was running the default Windows driver. Any clues?December 20, 2010Komeil Bahmanpour saidHave you tried renaming the NVDISP.INF to NVWI.INF? For the 260.99 to work, you may need to rename the downloaded modded INF into nvwi.inf and replace it with the file of the same name inside Display.Driver folder, and then run Setup.exe.######################################################I tried that but I am having still the same problem like Terrazo2K2, it seem that afterwards the Intel driver is not there anymore and the WIN7 64 switches to the own driver. And I cant open the Nvidia control panel. Komeil, thanks for your effort, finally I have managed to update my driver as well. Thanks a lotBut still, one problem occurs.I have an Acer Aspire 5935G with a Hybrid graphic card: an integrated Intel and an nVidia GeForce GT 130M.The Win7 x64 still uses the integrated card instead of the nVidia, and I cannot change.
There is a button on the laptop but it’s not functioning for some reason.And my other question.I used to have an nVidia quicklaunch icon, where I could set it as well, (you know, Average use, Quality, or Performance), but it has disappeared as wellAny idea? I’ve got the nvidia geforce 310M 1GB graphics card for Windows 7 64bit professional. I downloaded both the 266.58 drivers as well as the 260.99 drivers, and both have failed. I’ve used your modded files and renamed them, replacing the files you mentioned in the instructions, but when I run the 260.99 version, it gives the message “This graphics driver could not find compatible graphics software”, and when I run the 266.58 version, it gives the message “Required files are missing” do you have any suggestions for me?Thanks! Sony VAIO VGN-FE17NP with NVIDIA GeForce Go 7400 with NVIDIA TurboCache (256 MB)With a fresh Windows 7 32-bit installation first I tried the NVIDIA Display Driver 270.61.
During “System Check – Checking system compatibility” it showedNVIDIA Installer cannot continueThis graphics driver could not find compatible graphics hardware.Then I tried Komeil’s modded INF 270.61 and pasted it in “C:NVIDIADisplayDriver270.61VistaInternationalDisplay.Driver”. During “Installing Graphics Driver” it asked “Windows can’t verify the publisher of this driver software” and I chose “Install this driver software anyway”. The NVIDIA Installer failed, showing Graphics Driver component version 270.61 returned Failed status.Then I tried to locate and install the driver software manually and picked “C:NVIDIADisplayDriver270.61VistaInternationalDisplay.Drivernvwi.inf” and selected “NVIDIA GeForce Go 7400”. But Windows encountered a problem installing the driver software returning this errorA service installation section in this INF is invalid.Retried and it returned this errorCannot create a stable subkey under a volatile parent key.Then I gave up the NVIDIA Display Driver 270.61, did a system restore to the restore point before the NVIDIA Display Driver installation and tried the older version 267.76 with Komeil’s modified INF version 267.76, with a complete success.Now I’m waiting for the 275.33 modded INF.Thank you very much Komeil. Komeil:First, I wanted to tell you that this page does an excellent job of addressing a specific issue that a great deal of people have.Second, the layout of the page is simple, straight-forward, and extremely helpful.That being said, I am having trouble getting the.inf method to work (I am sure it is something I am doing.)I have a Dell Latitude E6510 with Windows 7 32 bit installation.
I have downloaded the following:285.62-desktop-win7-winvista-32bit-english-whql(this package does not include a nvwi.inf when unzipped. I tried placing the modded nvwi.inf. Unsuccessful.)285.62-notebook-win7-winvista-32bit-international-whql(this package DOES include a nvwi.inf in the C:NVIDIADisplayDriver285.62WinVistaWin7InternationalDisplay.Driver folder.
I replaced the nvwi.inf with the modded version, but still was rebuffed by the installer.)Any help that you could give would be appreciated. Thanks for taking the time.
Basically if Microsoft error tracking was effective, those data should have been considered a starting point to the determination of the cause of the problem.Further checking your Event Viewer and investigating a snapshot of the BSOD might help reveal the glitch.The sloppy design and development philosophy behind consumer electronics of today means you cannot judge or point your blaming finger at Nvidia, Sony, or Microsoft.First, test your RAM with Memtest86+ bootable media and wait for a complete successful pass. Like a semiannual dentist checkup appointment, this is proved to be an effective practice, since RAM modules can fail without you noticing.Then, test your graphics memory and GPU logics with memtestG80 and/or memtestCL.To make sure it’s a software (driver) problem, revert back to 295.73 (maybe even 275.33, as it’s the most stable one so far) to see if the BSOD happens again.Do a memtestG80 and/or memtestCL with an older more stable version of the Nvidia driver software, if the current one doesn’t stand the stress. Those with modded nvwi.inf (and nvwhql.inf) are essentially of a newer generation comparing to those with modded nvdisp.inf. There are a lot of tweaks and added features and one can’t say for sure why yours is stable with the older ones. Perhaps the newer Nvidia software is oppressively incompatible with your G210M engine and it has nothing to do with the INF modification itself.You see, people even reported unexpected shutdowns because of an Nvidia GPU / Intel Matrix Storage / JMicron IDE driver conflict, so I’m clueless.
Komeil i have sony vaio vpccw12en laptop with 256mb nvidia geforce g210m graphics and my laptop have 2gb of ram my graphics driver version is 187.83 and by using your tecnique i have decided to upgrade my driver and finally i upgrade it but it upgrade to 258.96 when i am trying to upgrade with 296.10 then this driver installs but bsod occurs at desktop my laptop supports 8gb of ram so if i am upgrade my ram to 6gb then what are the chances that bsod does not happen again driver works poperly pls give me your suggestions thanks in advance. Though upgrading to 4 GB or more of RAM on a 64-bit edition of Windows is a noticeable performance upgrade, but if your current RAM is faulty, it doesn’t solve the BSOD problem. Because the location of the defect moves, BSOD occurrence time will change.As I said earlier, check the RAM with Memtest86+ bootable media (Windows is not up, so every bit of the memory will be tested thoroughly) to make sure it’s defect-free.
You can add extra RAM to that, but that won’t fix the BSOD.In addition to main RAM, there is a dedicated video memory. Check that with memtestG80 and/or memtestCL to find the cause of the problem. Notebooks featuring Nvidia Optimus technology have difficulty accepting modded INFs. Acer Aspire 5755G is one of them. You DO have Intel graphics inbuilt to your Core i5 / Core i7. (GPU within CPU)One feature of Nvidia’s Optimus technology in Acer Aspire 5755G is automatically switching between the Intel integrated graphics and GT540M graphics to decide which card as per the power requirement is to be used.
Since a lighter task keeps the machine cooler hence the battery will last longer. A simple yet impressive idea when talked about, but troublemaking when dealt with. Hi, I hope somebody can help me. I’ve got a Toshiba Tecra A9 that I upgraded from Vista to Win7, and for the life of me, I can’t get the Nvidia Quadro NVS 130M to work again.
I’ve tried Komiel’s inf file trick, and it will install everything like it’s supposed to, but when I restart the laptop, it will freeze at the windows logo screen, and then the fan will start running really fast and it just freezes. I then have to take the battery out in order to stop the computer. Then I have to do a restore, and start from square one. I’ve tried 3 different inf files, even the 197.16 (one of the oldest), and I can’t get past this issuehelpANYBODY???? Hi, I hope i can get some help on this as I am completely new and understand jack when it comes to hardware/software technicalities. Basically my windows 7 Pro (32bit) is installed with Geforce Go 7400 with driver version 7.
Dating 2006 and the system declares that I have the latest and up to date drivers. Going to Nvidia site it suggests to download the latest driver 179.48 which did but as to no surprise the usual error messages. However my intentions are to use Photoshop Cs6 for 3D usage which is unable to detect my GPU and suggests for updating driversAny help, guidance on which drivers and how I can install will be much highly appreciated!Many thanks,Bobby. 179.48 is a beta driver. You have to try stable WHQL-certified drivers.
First, try the latest Nvidia x86 driver combined with the latest x86 modded INF. It’s probable that the latest drivers and their matching modded INFs don’t work with your notebook Nvidia graphics card, so you possibly need to try the older stable ones like the 266.58, 258.96 or 197.16.310.90 driver (x86):310.90 modded INF (x86):266.58 driver (x86):266.58 modded INF (x86):258.96 driver (x86):258.96 modded INF (x86):197.16 driver (x86):197.16 modded INF (x86):You have to experiment.
One more thing, before installing any version, first uninstall the previous one, reboot, and then CLEAN INSTALL by selecting Custom (Advanced) ► Perform a clean installation.A clean installation restores all Nvidia settings to the default value and removes any profiles you have created. AFAIK, VAIO SZs are equipped with speed/stamina switch.
The Nvidia graphics is only active when speed is selected. On stamina, the Intel GMA is active. After installing the driver, another problem might be with the brightness control. I don’t know about your VGN-SZ740, but the Nvidia 8400M GS equipped VGN-SZ650N’s brightness control is fine with 275.33, while VGN-SZ370P’s brightness would be stuck at bright with 275.33 & 280.26 and at dark with 301.42. The modded 310.90 however, refuses to work.
I suggest you select speed, then try older modded versions with their corresponding Nvidia drivers in case the new ones have failed. Dear Komeil,You are doing a great job!! I read almost all posts but couldn’t find what I want. I downloaded your inf modded files but still it didnt work for me!I am using: SONY VAIO VPCCW16FGOperating System: WIndows 8 pro 32 bitGraphics Card: NVIDIA GT216 ( according to to CPU-Z) but actually it is Getforce GT 230M.My present hardware ID’s are:PCIVEN10DE&DEV0A2A&SUBSYS905E104DPCIVEN10DE&DEV0A2A&SUBSYS905E104D&REVA2Can you please do me a favour in this! Waiting for your positive reply.Cheers.
I tried with my Sony SZ780 with the new version 337.88 and did a clean instal of windows 8.1, everything was good, but some times the laptop freeze and I have to hard shutdown, and I cannot watch any video from any website, i got audio but the video screen comes green.I have research about this issue and found it all about this is for video drivers, all people recommend last drivers so I update to 337 but the same thing, just when use the low resolution 1024 x 768 the video works, and I can disable the hardware acceleration.So if somebody has any solution or suggestion please let me know. I have a Dell Latitude d820 with an NVIDIA Quadro NVS 120m that worked for a bit in windows 7, 32 bit, but then suddenly I was only able to get standard VGA at 1028x 740. I have had success installing both the 197.16 and the 258.96 Windows 7, 32 bit NVIDIA drivers with the modded INF file.
The installation went as planned, and the software installed. My display hasn’t changed, an I continue to get the dreaded Code 43 from Windows despite my video card being recognized as a GE Force 7000 (like one of the posted messages above). Does anyone have any ideas?To Komeil, thank you for having this site, and doing the work. There is a wealth of information here, and it is nice to know I am not alone in my frustrations.Thank you,Ben.
Hi Komeil,I have a Sony VPCL11S1E with a GeForce G210M running Windows 7 and am trying to update the driver in readiness for Windows 10. Currently I have 8. (Sony’s last supported version). As Sony are cr.p and have arbitrarily decided to not support Windows 10 I am left without a fix currently. I have tried your instructions to update to 341.44 but I don’t think my Hardware ID is supported currently as I get a message ‘NVidia installer failed’. The Hardware IDs are as follows:PCIVEN10DE&DEV0A74&SUBSYS9060104D&REVA2PCIVEN10DE&DEV0A74&SUBSYS9060104DPCIVEN10DE&DEV0A74&CC030000PCIVEN10DE&DEV0A74&CC0300Would you mind adding these to the supported systems?
Not all Dell D820 are 64-bit capable. The 64-bit version will only work with T7600 / T7400 / T7200 processors and due to limitations of the chipset, Windows 64-bit cannot access any more RAM than the 32-bit version. Hold Shift and restart, then select Troubleshoot ► Advanced options ► Startup Settings ► 7) Disable driver signature enforcement (F7). Download and extract Nvidia driver 258.96 WHQL ( 258.96notebookwinvistawin732bitinternationalwhql.exe) and try it with the 258.96 modded INF. Hi,thnx a lot for your post – it was the only guideline that helped me to install NVidia driver (for “Speed” mode) after I finally decided to upgrade my SZ-645P from older system to Win 8.1 Pro 64 bit (with still 2GB RAM – perhaps, worth upgrading to 4 or 8 GB???).
Nvidia Geforce 9600 Gt Download
Installed is one of the latest version – 341.81.However, perhaps, you can help me with one more issue: I noticed that Windows Experience Index (WinSAT) gives Graphics 3.8 in “Speed” mode (NVidia) and 3.7 in “Stamina” mode (Intel integrated graphics) – so, basically the same. The Gaming Graphics indexes are 3.1 for both modes. So, no boost of graphic performance with NVidia comparing with the integrated adaptor. I also noticed that Windows System information utility shows the available graphic memory 384MB for Intel (Stamina) and only 64MB for NVidia (Speed) – which might be the cause.So, the question is – do you have any expertise how to “fix” this issue and make NVidia show its graphics power? Perhaps, it is about the graphic memory? Is it possible to allocate more for NVidia from RAM?
If yes, than how?I would highly appreciate your reply, for example, to my e-mail address or in this blog – thanks.Dmitry. Do not install a relatively new version like 341.81 on an old VAIO. A few notes on my 2009-2013 Windows 7 x86 / x64 installation experience with VAIO SZ models VGN-SZ650N (NVIDIA GeForce 8400M GS on SPEED and Intel GMA X3100 on STAMINA) and VGN-SZ370P (NVIDIA GeForce Go 7400 on SPEED and Intel GMA950 on STAMINA):VGN-SZ650N works properly with 275.33.VGN-SZ370P somehow works with 275.33 / 280.26 / 301.42, but the brightness is stuck at its highest with 275.33 / 280.26, and at its lowest with 301.42. It doesn’t work with 310.90 modded INF.Windows Action Center recommends Nvidia driver version 195.62 ( 195.62notebookwinvistawin732bitinternationalwhql.exe) for VAIO VGN-SZ370P.
Thnx for your reply with the tips. I tried to install 275.33 though NVidia site says it is for another GPU chip. Everything worked the same way as 341.81 – with the same performance indexes A bit strange to see nVidia equipped PC having overall performance index aligned with the poorest performing component – the graphics CPU, memory and even HDD of the year 2007 are doing much better than nVidia Perhaps, I should “reassure” myself that it is only useless benchmarks.I want to repeat one last question – do you think that it is definitely not about only 64MB graphic memory? Thnx and sorry for any disturbance. KomeilFirst i saw ur article is awesome job! What a great job ever!but, can u help me to find INF.
File that match with my Geforce4 MX 4000 Grapics Card for Windows 8 or 8.1 x86 bit please?im just about desperate to find these kind driver (Geforce4 MX 4000)🙁now im currectly running dual boot OS windows 7 x86 bit and Windows 8.1 Pro. The windows 7 looks well and smooth with these driver Geforce4 MX 4000, But the second OS Windows 8.1 its doesnt look good, in the device manager look like a Display Adapter going to Microsoft Basic Display Adapter 🙁I Hope you can solve my problemSorry for my bad langueges, im from indonesia bythewayMany ThanksWarm RegardsFuriose Fernando. Komeil,I have a Sony VPCL11S1E with a GeForce G210M graphics card which is currently running display driver 341.44. This is not a machine supported for upgrade under NVidia’s project Verde. The operating system is Windows 7 and I am trying to update the driver to 341.74 so that I have a driver which is compatible with Windows 10 and I am then able to update the OS. I have followed your instructions trying to update to 341.74 applying the modded inf file in order to run the installer.
However while the install starts successfully, my display then goes blank and after a few hours I powered off and rebooted, unfortunately I then find the graphics card is disabled and I only have a basic 640×480 driver, and hav to do a system restore to recover to 341.44. Do you have any advice as to what I might be doing wrong? I’m not sure about your particular AiO PC, but Windows 10 contains (or utilizes Windows Update to install) signed Windows 10 certified Nvidia drivers. Unlike older drivers on Microsoft Windows Update Website and those packaged with Windows Installers of the past, these new drivers are not stripped-down versions, and even contain Nvidia Control Panel (and Intel HD Graphics Control Panel in case of Intel graphics). Please note Windows 10 10586 Upgrade Installer also checks for driver support before letting you go ahead.
An example is late 2014 Apple Mac mini with Intel Iris Graphics 5100 (MGEN2LL/A and MGEQ2LL/A) + BootCamp + Intel 10. Iris driver that is not compatible and refuses to upgrade to Windows 10. Users uninstall the driver and then install the upgrade. Once upgraded, Windows Update automatically downloads and installs the same so-called incompatible 10. Iris driver, and the system works!
Nvidia 9400 Gt Driver
Komeil,Thank you for your advice. I have taken the courage of upgrading to Windows 10 and am currently running the Microsoft basic display adapter, but this has a maximum resolution of 1600×900. I am now trying to do a clean install of the nVidia drivers so that I can get back to a resolution of 1920×1080. I have tried many of the drivers which support my graphics card (GeForce G210M) from the latest (353.62) back to the early 2012 drivers (301.42). Unfortunately I am not able to install, just getting ‘failed’ against the graphics card driver when I run the install. Is there any advice you can offer that will help me to get a working driver, or do you think I will have to roll back to Windows 7?
Thank you for your advice and support – you have helped me a lot. I have experience with 21:9 aspect ratio 2560×1080 on Dell UltraSharp U2913WM. It’s a tricky resolution as its height is HD 1080p but the width is well over HD 1920. The HDMI 1.3 port on older laptops and PCs (mostly Mini HDMI) sometimes does not support this ultra wide resolution (while their DisplayPort does) and sometimes it depends on the driver! On such devices, only the center portion of the screen receives graphics signal at 1920×1080p, leaving the right and left portions of the screen being black (or you see 1920 stretched to 2560 on monitors capable of stretching). This complicates things. You have to be certain that your laptop is able to provide output at this resolution on its stock OS and driver, before upgrading to a newer OS and installing an updated driver.
Sometimes all the pixels receive signal, but the picture does not look perfect. An example is the HDMI 1.4 port on late 2014 MGEQ2LL/A and MGEN2LL/A Intel Iris 5100 equipped Mac mini with OS X 10.10 “Yosemite” connected to Dell UltraSharp U2913WM. The picture looks grainy.
If on the same devices, you switch the ports (to Thunderbolt 2 on the Mac mini, and DisplayPort on the Dell) and cable (to the included Coxoc mDP to DP cable, Dell MPN 50.7U603.011) or keep the HDMI connection, but switch to Windows 8.1 or Windows 10 with BootCamp and Intel Iris 5100 Driver 10., or update the OS X to 10.11 “El Capitan”, the picture becomes perfect. That’s how complicated the matters are with resolutions above HD. On another note, it’s great that your VAIO is equipped with Nvidia GeForce 8600M GT rather than Nvidia GeForce 8400M GS.
I know of two Dell laptops of the same era, Dell XPS M1330 (Nvidia GeForce 8400M GS) that needed modded INF way sooner (197.16) than its 15-inch counterpart, the Dell XPS M1530 (Nvidia GeForce 8600M GT) that accepted recent (340.52) Nvidia driver without any problems. Komeil,Thank you for your webpage! I have been trying to upgrade my Sony Vaio to Windows 10 without success.
Following the advice on your forum I downloaded the driver and modded inf and uninstalled the driver and performed the Windows upgrade. After I upgraded my machine booted up with the Windows ’emergency’ driver which doesn’t go up to the resolution of my screen (1920×1080) and I then tried to install the nVidia modded driver. Unfortunately each time I tried I just got a message ‘failed’ from the driver install even though I modified the.inf file as you suggested. I tried lots of the older drivers as well as the current one for my machine (353.62) but the result is the same. Can you offer me any advice which would help me resolve this issue?My device ID is PCIVEN10DE&DEV0A74&SUBSYS9060104D&REVA2.
Hello Komeil,I want to thank you in advance for you’re obviously a major contribution to us all. So thank you Komeil.Now I have a hopefully small issue here: I’m putting Win7 64bit on my wife’s HP Compaq Presario R3000 (actually R3140US or DZ357U#ABA) with 2 gigs of RAM and 60GB HD.The display driver 197.16notebookwinvistawin764bitinternationalwhql.exe and your modded inf nvdisp gave me a code 43 error on install for my NVIDIA GeForce4 420 Go 32M which BTW is the only one that completed the nvidia installation then upon reboot it claims to have recovered from a serious failure. So here are the HIDs:PCIVEN10DE&DEV0176&SUBSYS006D103C&REVA3PCIVEN10DE&DEV0176&SUBSYS006D103CPCIVEN10DE&DEV0176&CC030000PCIVEN10DE&DEV0176&CC0300Thanks again for your time. Look forward to your reply.P.S. I also could use help with rest of the drivers. With the yellow mark I believe IDE and AGP should come with the Nvidia modded driver you made. Hi,Per my December 1, 2015 comment in reply to Furiose Fernando, for legacy GeForce4 (and GeForce2) to work, you need to download Nvidia’s original (without modding) 93.71forcewarewinxp2kenglishwhql.exe (40.5 MB) and install the driver (with driver signature enforcement disabled for Windows 8, 8.1, and 10).
These legacy drivers are located. Although these legacy drivers are designed for Windows XP (and Windows 2000), people have reported them working on Windows 7 32-bit. For 64-bit editions of Windows 7, I’m clueless. You can also play with drivers released prior to or after 93.71, but don’t expect a more recent version like 197.16 to work.From an August 2, 2010 at 4:05 AM comment, we know the modded 258.96 works with nVidia GeForce Go 7400, but then it’s a GeForce7 Go, which is newer than GeForce4 Go and due to its updated architecture, it is able to accept recent Windows driver models by design.IDE and AGP device drivers are provided by their respective vendors like Intel and Nvidia (Nvidia nForce in case of an old AMD system) as a motherboard driver package different from the video driver. As for the rest of the devices, the best practice is googling for hardware IDs.
