Please help me, I'm going crazy, nvidia driver failed install

[Illuminist]

I spent about a week totally fixing mine whatever is going on is raging me, Windows 10 right? Do yourself a favour if you have gsync module go back to win 7 non DCH drivers.


Recently both win10 and DCH which is the new forced default on installs has been horrid not only would it refuse to install for me Chrome and Nvidia but when i eventually found out that when i format i was swapped to DCH and there is zero documentation on this. Not just that system latency is high ever since. With warnings in Latencymon.


Microsoft are going downhill big time, This plus the added bloat year on year think UWP, DCH, Cortana, MS store, Changes to system ticks and timers with no documentation. Now had you been on Windows7 SP1 or SP2 you would have had zero issues because they leave it alone now. I know for sure and i bet you are peeved at the time wasted here for another person who just wants to play videogames on Windows 10.

It wouldn't let me install the non dch driver...
It failed the regular install with a red warning saying to install the dch one, which then worked.......

Excellent news, glad you got it sorted. Much better than having hardware failure, even though I bet you have a few bald spots after all the hair pulling out that must have been going on.

Thanks man, I just hate not knowing what is the problem, and I still don't. There were no corrupt files, no stray reg entries it just starting failing the install from no where.
3 days of trouble shooting always takes it out of a gamer, as does a fresh windows install, so many things to reinstall I can't even think about it as my limited and precious gaming time (I have a 8 month baby and ft job) is reduced into installing and redownloading my games and software.
Oh well at least it works.

Thanks again for all your help everyone! <3
