GTX 680 / EVGA precision / driver help needed

Hi Guys

I updated from my old 460 SLI set up to my new MSI GTX680 (well worth it imho)

When I've installed the drivers from CD (from MSI ver 300) it took ages to get sorted but now finally works. In EVGA precision it is listing my GTX680 as GPU2 and the 980 chip as GPU1.

I've tried updating to the latest drivers 301.10 from Nvidia (using clean install) but this keeps throwing up an error (either 28 or 32 from the top of my head) and not installing properly. A quick couple of questions:

a) could the driver not updating be because the GTX is showing as the 'secondary' graphics card behing the onbard chip?

b) does the onboard ship do anything if I'm not running SLI anymore? Could I just disable it?

Everything is running fine at the moment - FPS are fine and benching okay but I don't want to get too far behind the latest drivers if I can't sort this out

Thanks
