Hello,

I have an issue with installing drivers. To be exact with "system check" part because I can't get past this.
I contacted Nvidia support and did everything their assistant told me to do. Tried both versions of web-page drivers for 20 series, tried drivers that came with graphic card on CD, installed DDU and did clean and restart --> tried installing CD drivers 417.35, no luck. Again did DDU clean and restart --> now tried to install web-page driver 418.91 again can't get past "system check". I did select GPU in DDU.
I also re-insalled windows 10 imidiately after plugging in my card because I had ATI before.

If you can somehow help me I would appreciate it. What could i do to make my card work?
 
Did you go to control panel and in device manager click on display adapter. What does it say?

Microsoft Basic Display Adapter
Intel(R) HD 4600 - that's onboard.


https://www.geforce.com/drivers/results/141906 try this driver. They tested the card in January and this driver was out then.


It says as every other time:

This NVIDIA graphics driver is not compatible with this version of Windows.
This graphics driver could not find compatible graphics hardware.

I have updated Windows 10 yesterday and have 1803 update, Feb. 2019.
 
So, this is in redme on CD that i got in box:

fOR SOME REASON YOUR BOARD IS NOT READING THE CARD. Even without drivers it should detect the card in the slot even as a vga card. That is why the drivers wont install because the card isn't detected. So it is a motherboard reading the card problem not a driver problem. Do you have the power cable running into the card?

There is one ! on other devices and it says PCI Device, and on CPU-Z it says that it's NVidia card. And i have monitor plugged into that card, so card works.
One 8-pin (maybe 6-pin) connector is plugged so it has power.
