Did you try any previous version or just the last one? Sometimes the newest may have issues with older hardware.
You can also try DDU is safe mode to remove and reinstall your drivers.

Just tried the latest one . When I use DDU in safe mode. Should I reinstall Windows optional and automatic driver updates ? Then install A version 1 or 2 older of the Nvidia driver ? Or should I just install the Nvidia driver without doing the windows update eg unplug internet after DDU then install driver manually ?

The thread I linked has detailed instructions.

I would download a previous version, unplug internet, do DDU in safe mode, install drivers that I downloaded, see if it works, reconnect internet.


Ok so I done the DDU. And tried all of these versions which are listed inside the link below for this GPU. And all came up with the same error on System check. Then once I connected the internet it automatically installed the driver in the second link image.

So I have no idea what is going on as this should work.

But Windows gives me the optional update link below. But same error will happen if I install it but I don't want that version.
