Its taking forever to install graphics card drivers.

I just formatted my computer and was installing drivers for my GTX 650 Ti.
But its been installing for about 2 and a half hours now and only moved 30%.
It is currently saying its install Windows NET.Framework.
Is this supposed to take this long or is something wrong ?

If there was a bunch of ancillary software that had to be updated or installed to support the drivers, and your machine isn't necessarily peppy or otherwise at the top of it's game, yes, it can take a very long time to do what otherwise would be a pretty rudimentary task.

How well does a car run when you only change the motor oil once, every 20,000 miles?

In the case of a fresh Windows installation, however, there's usually a bunch of software missing that needs be installed for some drivers to be functional.

Found out what the issue was.
Everything i tried ended up freezing at where it was downloading NET.Framework.
So Net.Framework is the issue but i have no fix i have no idea what to do.

Download and install the .NET framework manually.

I don't know which version you need and it doesn't hurt to install multiple versions.
