Nvidia Drivers

Post » Sat Dec 10, 2011 1:00 am

Hi there. I've recently bought myself a new computer and installed a new graphics card.

After some time of frustration, I managed to find out that an issue I had with black screens was due to rubbish drivers by Nvidia. So I'm looking to earlier drivers to fix the issue and be on with it (which are reported to always fix the issue). However, it seems that I can't just use any driver for this, either I find a driver that isn't compatible with Windows 7, or isn't compatabile with a 64 bit system.

I'm kinda rubbish when it comes to hardware, so I thought I'd try here.

Can anyone reccomend me a decent Nvidia driver that doesn't fail on me?

When I use Nvidia's search engine for drivers I can use, it will only give me the result for the most recent driver (which causes major problems). This is 285.62, fyi. I've seen problems with the later drivers all over the internet when I've been searching, so if you're using one of them with no problem, you're probably just lucky :P

My Graphics card is an Nvidia GeForce GTX 560, I'm using 64-bit Windows 7.

I tend to get all my 3D drivers from Guru3D.com - just have a look through their download section, and find a set of drivers listed for your card and OS.
