My GPU (MSI GeForce GTX 1660 TI XS Ventus 6G) shows up as PCI Device in device manager...I am unable to install NVidia drivers on it.,...I tried clean installing, formatting and reinstalling windows, etc... Still can't install drivers...whenever I try to install any drivers, it says exactly this: " NVIDIA Installer cannot continue
This DCH driver package is not compatible with the currently installed version of Windows. This system is configured to require a Standard driver package. The correct driver can be downloaded from NVIDIA.com/drivers by selecting the "Standard" option under the "Windows Driver Type" menu "...and yes..it is plugged in correctly...and yes, I have unplugged and plugged it back in...still the same message. I tried installing both a DCH and a standard driver for my GPU...still the same message. I upgraded my BIOS to the latest one (F50) and installed all motherboard and CPU drivers (though due to the lack of Graphics Processing Unit, the CPU performs extremly poorly...even worse than my older PC CPU A8-5600k@3.6GHz)... My Specs:
MOBO: Gigabyte B450 PRO (updated it's BIOS to F50 from F41...or so I hope...followed every step correctly)
GPU: MSI GeForce GTX 1660 TI XS VENTUS 6G (with the TU116 chipset)
CPU: Ryzen 7 2700x @3.7GHz
SSD: Patriot with 480Gb
RAM: 16 Gb 3000 MHz (dual channel) I think CL16
OS: (cracked) Windows 10 Pro (version unknown...maybe sounds something like 1550)
This PC is brand new, and I have never used it for gaming (because I couldn't because of my problem)
My old PC performed better at games than this one (A8-5600K APU @ 3.6GHz with 8gb dual channel 1600mhz ram, OS: (cracked) Windows 10 - this one worked just fine though..no problems there)..I know ... due to the lack of drivers...
When I first installed windows on it, and installed some driver (or didn't) I kept getting so many BSOD ( Blue Screen Of Death) for WINDOWS 10.... but now, after I reinstalled it with formatting the SSD, it is working just "fine". I'm gonna be fair... I use a cracked version of windows 10 pro (I don't remember which version but I think it may be 1550? and the latest showed up as 1990?- I don't remember very well)..anyway...everything is fine with it other than the fact that I cannot update my windows ( error code 0x80240fff ) - I tried fixing it with all the steps I found online on different sites...nothing ( and yes, I did reboot my PC after every method). MSI afterburner can't identify my GPU either, nor can GeForce experience, HOWEVER, CPU-Z can identify my GPU as 1660ti, and if I used their driver detection app, then it would install a GTX 1650 SUPER driver (even though it still did not work, nor show up in device manager).
All this may be confusing so I am going to give a TL;DR : My computer can't identify my GPU (it shows up as PCI device) and I can't install any driver no matter what I tried...I just haven't tried updating windows because I have a cracked version and I keep getting the error message 0x80240fff every time I try to update it no matter what "fixes" I tried to apply from the internet...help me.,...what should I do... get a new windows 10 version (up to date) or something else?
