Beginning to hate nVidia!!!

I've uninstalled the drivers due to a BSOD being caused by a corrupt driver file. I've gone through Driver Sweeper, re-downloaded the driver package and all I get is 'Installation Package is Corrupt'.

This is beginning to test my patience.

Any ideas?

Can you download anything else and run it without the same error? Corrupt downloads is usually faulty RAM.

Not really tried to be honest. Trying to get to safe mode to run Driver Sweeper again. PC's not having any of it.

lol

Safe Mode & Driver Sweeper seem to have fixed it for now. I've managed to install the driver & will run memtest first thing tomorrow morning.

I would run memtest but my PC is refusing to boot to CD drive. I've changed the boot order and used F12 to specify and nothing, still booting to OS.

I'm ready to burn this god-damn thing now. Nothing but a pain in my ass!!!!!

It would appear that when selective cdrom, its failing to boot as its not the cdrom. I had to select the lightscribe and dvdram option. How strange.

As above, once is done the Driver sweeper under safe mode, the same download which reported it was corrupt worked fine.

Well I'm 44 mins into it and all good. If there was a problem, I would expect it to have materialized by now. I've got another 40 mins before work, will see what happens.

Is the warranty still valid if you remove the head spreader?

Test complete, no errors or failures. Must have been lingering files from the removal process.

How is corruption of downloads an Nvidia issue? Check your router.Restart it,try switching DNs to 8.8.8.8 & 8.8.4.4 or could be Isp routing or interference.

It must have been an issue with remaining files, as once I'd booted into safe mode and ran driver sweeper, the remaining files were found & removed.

The same download which reported a corrupt download worked fine once the above was done.
