Nvidia WHQL driver 285.62

Newest driver from Nvidia:

NVIDIA DRIVERS 285.62 WHQL

Remember to use the clean install option

 

clean install option....
this is a option inside the installation ? normally a uninstall last drivers, reboot, and then install new ones.

 

No with nvidia drivers, within the installation, you can choose an advanced option and then a clean install. This will wipe your computer of all old drivers and install new ones. I upgraded from 285.38 and it didn't even need a restart.

 

Thanks for the heads up!

• 
  This is the recommended driver for Battlefield 3. It contains several performance and compatibility.
  This is also the recommended and enhanced driver for Batman: Arkham City and RAGE.
  Contains a fix for the driver timeouts reported with the R285 beta drivers.

 

Aha. Do you think, there is a difference, if i uninstall the old ones, first, reboot, and then install the new one ?

 

It did ask me to restart before it finished instaling the new drivers, every thing went well. GPU-Z show the that the new drivers are installed.
Thanks for the INFO widezu69 +1 rep for you.

 

Not really but I still recommend the clean install option even if you uninstall your old ones first. If upgrading from anything lower than 285, it will prompt a restart.

 

i have 285.38 beta now. Ok, ill try the CIO.

 

aaand another driver that won't recognize the hardware on my R1.

It's starting to really annoy me... had to mod the .inf that I modded for the beta lol

 

Guys with the M17x (1st release especiallym also tested on M17x R2 with 285M, should work for the R3 also), i modded the inf files so you can take advantage of these drivers too, enjoy.
Follow these steps:

• Download the 285.62 drivers to your Desktop(or wherever you want)

• Double click and let them extract the files in the default directory (C:\NVIDIA)

• download my attached archive and extract the two files

• cut/copy them and paste in "C:\NVIDIA\DisplayDriver\285.62\WinVista_Win7_64\International\Display.Driver
  And replace originals"

• Go back to the "International" folder and run setup.exe

• continue performing normal installation steps, choosing Custom(Advanced)>Next>and check Perform a clean installation>Next and at the windows prompt choose Install...anyway

• Reboot when prompted and voila

• Don't forget to reenable SLi in nVIDIA control Panel

Cheers
