How to install the driverGeForce by usingNVidia GeForce Experience

Installing NVidia drivers using special program NVidia GeForce Experience is much easier and faster than manual. Moreover, the program itself has many useful functions, especially for gamers - from optimizing game settings to the ability to record in-game video and automatic renewal running laptops on battery power while gaming. However, some users don't like the fact that it loads the system to a certain extent while running in the background. The choice, in any case, is yours. We would recommend using the utility.

So, to answer the question of how to correctly install the GeForce driver using the program, do the following:

• Open the official NVidia website
• Select the “Drivers” menu at the top and click on “GeForce Experience”

In addition, be sure to disable the antivirus before installation - often, during auto-installation, antivirus software blacklists the program, blocking the connection to the Internet, which entails an error in installing drivers.

Hello friends! In today's article we will figure out why, in some cases, after reinstalling the operating systemDrivers are not installed on the video card. This question is very interesting and is often asked in the comments on our website, “they say we reinstalled the operating system, but we can’t install the driver for the video card (it’s probably broken).” This most often applies to laptops with switchable Intel + ATI graphics. We generally cannot install drivers on AMD Radeon HD 6xxxM series and Radeon HD 7xxxM series video cards, but if you NVIDIA video card, then everything said below also applies to you.To better understand the essence of the problem, we will publish one letter from our reader.

• Hello remontcompa! The question is this. Lenovo G770 laptop, reinstalled the Windows 7 operating system, the installation was successful, then I entered the Device Manager and realized that I would have to tinker with the drivers. I downloaded all the drivers from the official website http://www.lenovo.com/ru/ru/ , the drivers were installed successfully except for the driver for the video card. As you can see in the screenshot, I have two video cards on my laptop,

this is the so-called switchable Intel graphics+ ATI, that is, an integrated video card from Intel (Intel HD Graphics) and a discrete AMD Radeon HD 6700M.

In other words, my laptop supports the function of switching video cards. With applications that do not require high power running energy saving graphics Intel processor, and high-performance graphics work with games and other energy-intensive programs AMD processor Radeon HD 6700M.
I install the driver according to your article, download the utility automatic installation AMD Driver Autodetect drivers, but at the very beginning of the driver installation this error appears.
Can't load AMD program Catalyst Mobility due to its incompatibility with the hardware or software on your computer.
Version graphics adapter your computer is not supported. Contact your laptop manufacturer to update your graphics driver..

According to your article, I downloaded the driver for the video card manually, but when installing it, I also get this error.

Why are drivers not installed on the video card and what to do in this situation, is the Windows 7 operating system licensed?

Drivers are not installed on the video card

That's the whole secret. Some readers may ask - What are these “Chipsets?” These, friends, are nothing more than drivers for the motherboard chipset, and this is a basic driver; if you don’t install it first, drivers for other laptop components may simply not be installed (as in our case) or they will be installed, but these devices will not work always good and reliable, for example, the sound will periodically disappear or it will be quiet, and devices connected to USB ports will not always be detected, and so on.

More than once I have heard the wrong opinion even experienced users, that “there are drivers for the mother in Windows itself”, they are there, but how ancient are they, these drivers?

• Note: most fresh driver on the motherboard chipset you can, in our case Intel. You may also find our articles on this topic useful.

In our case, first of all we will install driver for motherboard chipset, second thing is to install the driver for integrated graphics Intel cards HD Graphics, and only then install Driver for AMD Radeon HD 6700M video card.

We have a Lenovo G770 laptop, so we go to the website http://www.lenovo.com/ru/ru/. Select Support and Drivers.

Drivers and software,

Enter G770 and press Enter on the keyboard,

The driver page opens. First of all, left-click on the item Chipset

and open it. Intel Chipset driver for Windows 7 (32-bit, 64-bit) - Lenovo G770 is the driver for the chipset of our motherboard. Click for files.

Download now. Download the driver and start the installation.

After the installation is complete, open the Display and Video Graphics item, select Intel Onboard Graphics Driver for Windows 7 (64-bit) - Lenovo G770 Notebook (these are the drivers for the built-in video card from Intel (Intel HD Graphics) for our operating system Windows systems 7 (64-bit). Click for files.

Download now. Install the driver for the integrated graphics.

And only now, friends, we got to the driver for our AMD Radeon HD 6700M video card. Here we can go two ways. First, download the driver here, select AMD Video Driver for Windows 7 (32-bit, 64-bit) - Lenovo G770, click for files.

AMD Video Driver Download Now.

Download and install the driver for our AMD Radeon HD 6700M video card. No errors. The driver is installed.

Secondly, you can go to our website ATI video cards:

And download the automatic driver installer AMD Driver Autodetect. Technology automatic search drivers from AMD determines your video card and operating system, and if a new driver is available, you need to press just one AMD Driver Autodetect button and the driver download and installation process will immediately begin.

But often with its help it is not possible to install the latest driver on your video card and we will receive the error “Unable to load the AMD Catalyst Mobility program” Why? Friends, I tried to figure this out many times, but then I noticed that on the same laptops this AMD Driver Autodetect either starts or doesn’t, most likely the error lies in it itself.

But you can always install the driver on the video card by downloading it manually; this is described in detail in our article “How to install the ATI video card driver” (link at the beginning of the article). Let's do this again together. Let's go to the AMD video card download center:

http://support.amd.com/ru-ru/download. If we need a driver for the video card of an AMD Radeon HD 6700M laptop, select Notebook Graphics, if you have a simple computer, select Desktop Graphics, then the series, product model and operating system, then click the DISPLAY RESULTS button (view the result).

The first is a verification tool - AMD Mobility Radeon™ Driver Verification Tool, which will give the result of the compatibility of the driver we download and our operating system. If you are sure that you have chosen the right driver, then click just below Download and download your driver, then install.

Well, friends, we have addressed the question of why drivers are not installed on the video card of a modern laptop with switchable video.
If you get your hands on Lenovo laptop, then you can install all other drivers on it in exactly the same way: sound, webcam, card reader, TouchPad, network driver, WI-FI and so on.

When you try to install (update) Nvidia drivers using the specialized utility " Nvidia Experience» the user may encounter an error this update accompanied by a message that the installation of the target drivers failed. In most cases, the error “Failed to install software NVIDIA software"caused by action antivirus program blocking the installation of drivers, as well as a number of reasons that will be listed below. In this material I will analyze the specifics of this problem, and also present options for solving it.

Nvidia has a rather complicated relationship with Microsoft, the creator of the Windows OS, which does not always have a positive effect on the stability of Nvidia products in the Windows environment.

In particular, the problem with updating Nvidia drivers using the Nvidia Experience utility is widespread, occurring on almost all modern versions Windows OS (in particular, in the form of error 28).

At the same time, there are a number of reasons why the update of Nvidia drivers from Nvidia Experience is unstable with the error “Could not install NVIDIA software.” These reasons are:

How to fix "Could not install NVIDIA software"

To solve the dysfunction that has arisen “NVIDIA software could not be installed,” there are several basic methods; below we will discuss them all.

Method number 1. Deactivating antivirus and firewall

In most cases, the error is caused by an antivirus that blocks correct operation Nvidia Experience program.

2. Click on the Start button, type appwiz.cpl in the search bar and press Enter.
3. Find your antivirus there and remove it.
4. Also disable the system firewall, restart your PC, and try again to perform the required update.

Method number 2. Removing all Nvidia software and then installing it

Greetings to everyone, my dear readers!

Possible reasons

As always, before you solve a problem, you need to understand what caused it. It is possible that the file itself was damaged during download. Perhaps it was originally taken not from the developer’s website, but from some third-party site, where its code was edited by an inept programmer.

If you used a function in Windows that allows you to automatically search for software, then most likely the driver was simply installed crookedly, or not at all for the correct bit depth. When it comes to updating software, you need to understand that it is better to do everything slowly and manually than to sit and solve puzzles later.

It is likely that the distribution itself, and often its assembly, fails. Sometimes they already have drivers installed, but no one can guarantee that they will fit your computer. For example, a laptop has a video card from AMD mobile type, but the drivers are for a different model, differing only in the chipset. In this case, you will have to download another assembly.

Problem Definition

If you just downloaded a driver file, then most likely it gives an error when it is determined through the device manager in the operating system. Or, the installer package itself simply shows a sign with a certain code during the process. Now I will list a few of the most common problems.

Code 28

In this situation, neither a reboot nor another software package will help you. This error occurs mainly when working with integrated video cards from Nvidia. The problem is known to the developers, but the cards with which this failure occurs are no longer supported by the manufacturers.

In this case, I can only advise installing more drivers old version. Otherwise, you will have to use the built-in ones in Windows, but in this case do not count on stable work graphic device.

Code 43

The error occurs immediately after installing the firewood. Moreover, the device simply turns off.

This is a problem with the driver itself. Either it is always installed crookedly, or the file is broken. To solve the problem you will need the following.

Come in first to the site. Next, fill out this table with data about your device and press the button “ search».

Immediately pay attention to the capacity of the proposed product. Next, see if your video device is on the list. If everything is fine, download the driver.

Then go to device manager and uninstall your card driver.

Now go to the control panel section called “ uninstalling and installing programs" From there you delete all software associated with your video card. Otherwise it may cause a crash. Next download from here CC Cleaner and clean your registry.

And now install the new driver on the laptop.

If this does not help, then you will have to disassemble the laptop. In it you should find the video card itself and its chipset. Most likely, the thermal paste on it has worn out. Your task is to buy a new one and replace it, since the error is probably caused by overheating of the device.

If all else fails

Do not be alarmed if the above methods do not lead to a positive result.

Most likely, the reason lies in the crooked assembly of the operating system itself. You'll have to uninstall the OS.

First you need to determine which files you want to keep, since the hard drive will have to be formatted.

If you do not have it divided into several logical drives, then simply select everything you need (photos, pictures, music, personal files) and transfer them to file storage. It can be started on Yandex (Yandex.Disk), or Google (Google Drive). All this is free and does not require special knowledge.

Then download a licensed distribution operating system. After installation download driver booster. Install it and run it. The program will find all the drivers and install them automatically. After that, download the files from the storage to your screw and that’s it. This should help solve the driver problem in any case.

If you install drivers and an error appears, do not rush to immediately look for new versions or tear down the operating system. Try rolling back the action. This can be done like this.

Open the menu " Start" and by the word " My computer» Right-click. Select an item Control.

Then Device Manager.

Double-click on it with the left button. In the window that appears, select the “ driver», « roll back», « OK».

A window like this will appear in which you click “ Yes».

Close all windows, restart the computer and after that install new drivers. This is called manual driver rollback.

Conclusion

Today I told you how you can solve the problem with driver errors. If you have an Intel processor, then first install intel drivers. This is necessary so that the processor in the laptop does not malfunction, since this is a fundamental device. After this, you can already put any firewood on the iron. It is important that the most important components are identified by the system, that is, motherboard and processor. By the way, I will give you a list of videos that will be useful:
