May 10, 20197 yr Downloaded 430.53 from the Guru site, did the install, it seemingly worked. Then I open GeForce Experience and it says I have 419.72 installed. I go back to the temp folder to see what I downloaded, it was 430.53. What gives?
May 10, 20197 yr Commercial Member What does GPU-Z say? I've never bothered with GF Experience. Cheers! Luke Kolin I make simFDR, the most advanced flight data recorder for FSX, Prepar3D and X-Plane.

I never install or use GeForce Experience either, and also verify versions and performance data with GPU-Z which is nearly an indispensable tool.

May 10, 20197 yr I use NVSlimmer to strip away all the bloatware in nVidia drivers. The app is easy to use and allows the customization of nVidia's "supplements" by the end user. I use P3Dv4, so all I need is the driver package and core... it's all very easy to configure based upon what one needs on their system. http://m.majorgeeks.com/files/details/nvslimmer.html Greg

May 10, 20197 yr So I noticed the driver download says "international" at the end: 430.53-desktop-notebook-win10-64bit-international.hf.exe I redownloaded and went to install and it says "this driver is not compatible with this version of Windows" or some such thing.
May 10, 20197 yr Now it's getting very interesting. I went into safe mode, used DDU to remove the driver, the computer restarted, for the first 30 seconds GPU-Z tells me driver version 0.0, which is obvious because the screen resolution is from 1985. And then 30 seconds later, there's a flash, the screen returns to normal, and GPU-Z detects driver 419.72. So it's apparently now reinstalling itself whenever I delete it. I'm regretting this. AGAIN.
May 10, 20197 yr Got 430.53 working. Didn't really notice much difference, perhaps a slight increase in FPS. ?? Who knows.
May 13, 20197 yr Author Now on 430.64 due to a severe security flaw in Nvidia GTX and RTX Drivers Software, check out the post on TomsHardware. Raymond Fry.
