A: When installing a new driver for Nvidia sometimes the installation process doesn't remove the old driver properly and then the new driver doesn't work. This is probably what happened to your installation. In this case It is recommended that you first uninstall the older driver before installing a new one. To uninstall your current NVIDIA driver from your system, follow these steps: 1) Open Control Panel 2) Double-click the Add/Remove Programs icon 3) Depending on which driver version you are using, your graphics drivers may appear in differently in the list of programs installed. -For older NVIDIA display drivers, it will be listed as "NVIDIA Windows Display Drivers". Click "Change/Remove" or "Add/Remove " button to remove the drivers from your system. -For newer display drivers, it will be listed as "NVIDIA Drivers". Click "Change/Remove" or "Add/Remove" button to remove the drivers from your system. If your PC features other Windows components, then Windows will list the other NVIDIA components installed Choose "Remove only the following" and then click "NVIDIA Display Driver" and finally click on the "Remove" button. 4) Confirm with Windows that you wish to continue with the uninstall Note: A prompt appears asking whether you want to delete all of the saved nView profiles. If you click Yes, all of the nView software and all of your saved profiles will be deleted. If you click No, the nView software is removed, but the profile files are saved in the Windows\nView directory on your hard disk. If you take advantage of the nView profiles, you may wish to keep your custom nView profiles. Once the driver files have uninstalled, Windows will request that you restart your computer to complete the uninstallation. Now you are ready to install the new driver Best of luck!
