I recently bought a brand new Nvidia GeForce GT 720 graphics card from Amazon. The installation disc that came with it did not work so I figured I'd install the drivers myself from GeForce or View Max. On the disc cover, it says "Windows 10 64 version users MUST install the GeForce driver 382.33 from the included CD first for full system compatibility; Also you can the supported driver update version 391.35 from the NVIDIA official website." So I proceeded to download the 382.33 and then the 391.35. (I'm using Windows 10.) I attempted to play CS:GO with it but it would freeze in game. On GeForce, it offers a download/update to the 430.64 version. I tired it but it bluescreens during the installation every time I try. Windows 10 is also freshly installed. Any suggestions?
