So here's the deal.
I have a Lenovo Ideapad Y580 with a nvidia Geforce GTX 660M. I was looking at updating my drivers, and it wasn't working out properly (kept on getting an error). I decided I would delete the drivers and install the latest (also tried to reinstall the ones I had before) to no avail.

I tried to the Lenovo website to download all the latest updates, and GeForce website only to have them download the driver and I can't install it. It seems my computer isn't reading I have a video card? I'm wanting to see if there are any solutions short of re-seating my GPU, which is a huge pain from the looks of a YouTube video.

Help please.....please

I had tried previously, then tried switching to just the intel in BIOS, restarted and turned back on the "switchable" graphics.
