    Default nVIDIA drivers wipe/install. Am I doing it wrong?

    Recently downloaded a modified 3xx OEM driver from laptop2go. Clock speed won't go past 797MHz, memory can't go past 1070.

    I have always used this guide for installing and deleting nVIDIA drivers.

    GeForce Driver Installation Guide - NVIDIA Forums


    Am I doing something wrong, if so, where can I see an updated 2012/2011 version for installing/wiping 3xx driver?


    Thanks in advance

    Just choose the custom install method and select the 'clean install' method. Always works for me .

    Yeah, that too. Didn't work either.

    never tried it using modded drivers though.

    The tutorial that MrDJ posted was exactly the same as the one in the nvidia forums

    bugger, as i said i didnt read all the link.

    have you tried the original whql 301.42 from nvidia > http://www.nvidia.com/Download/Find.aspx?lang=en-us

    it could be the modified driver thats causing the problem.
