Specific information about WU offers updated NVIDIA GTX 295

I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate.  Windows Update has recently offered an optional update for the graphics processor NVIDIA GeForce GTX 295 (approximately 145 MB).  As I started to use a Windows 7 computer, I don't remember that Windows Update has ever offered an update for Nvidia graphic processor before.  I'm already using the latest NVIDIA driver that I get them directly from Nvidia (who was a setup file about 117 MB).

I would like to know more information on this update before I go to download it and install it.  I want to know specifically what that is and if different versions of Nvidia driver (it contains additional features specific to Windows 7).  How can I do this?

I appreciate your time and expertise.

Aravaipa,
Updates of specific hardware driver that are offered through Windows Update are from OEMs.  Microsoft will host the updates of equipment for manufacturers but not write or modify.

    Hello, I am unable to upgrade the NVIDIA GTX 960 M video driver on my 70 - Y50 runs Windows 10. The version of the NVIDIA driver I have currently installed is 353.62.

    When I try to install the latest driver from NVIDIA GeForce experience, it tries to install but I receive a message that the driver installation has failed and then Manager device displays the video card NVIDIA as a video controller with 3D exclamation next to it in the other devices section. The same problem happens if I use the driver software upgrade option in Device Manager.

    I use a laptop computer Inspiron 1525 32-bit Home Premium Windows Vista 4 GB. I don't even think that I have enough for all the updates that Microsoft sends.

    Hello Madeline,.

    Welcome to Microsoft Community where you can find all the answers related to Windows.

    According to the description, it looks like you want to learn more about the updates of Windows that are important and not Important.

    I have a few links that should guide you in the right direction.

    Important updates provide significant benefits, such as improved security and reliability. You can also set Windows to automatically install recommended updates, which can address non-critical problems and help enhance your computing experience. Optional updates are not downloaded or installed automatically.

    Method 1:

    Updates are additions to software that can help to prevent or fix problems, enhance the operation of your computer, or improve your computing experience.

    Visit this link and see "can I choose which updates Windows automatically installs?"

  • Need information about the last update of the Bios for Satellite L10

    Hello

    My computer is a Satellite L10-PSL10E.
    The Bios is Phoenix V1.60 dated 21/12/04.
    There is a new Bios (v2.80 - WIN dated 07/08/07) available on the Toshiba web site.
    What's new in this version?
    Allows to start on an external hard drive or usb key?

    Is it recommended to install updates if all works well on the computer?

    If everything works you don't need new BIOS. Be happy with good running operating system.

    If you want to boot from the external HARD drive to use the other operating system, it won't work.

  • Update of Windows offer update of Nvidia driver, but it will fail to install with code 80070103

    I am running Windows 7 64 bit.
    I tried to go to the Nvidia website and installed the driver from there. Good, however, he removed Aero interface, so I rolled back driver.
    If Microsoft has an update of the driver, please give me one that works.

    Hi wtpeters,

    Thank you for using the Microsoft Forum.

    Check the drivers in Windows 7 64-bit compatibility mode in the Compatibility Center. The driver update Nvidia is likely still to be released by the manufacturer Nvidia, even if you are prompted for an update.

    Check with Nvidia if there are compatible drivers for WIndows 7 64 bit for your graphics card

  • Studio XPS 8100. Update graphics Nvidia GTX 650 or 750 GTX

    Hello

    I have a studio XPs 8100 with a Radeon 5770 (1 GB) graphics card. If it was a good card when I bought the system, I think to upgrade the card to an Nvidia GTX 650 (4 GB) or a 750 GTX card 2GB.

    Apart from buying a new power of W 600 or 700 unit, is there anything I should know about?  Did anyone tried these cards in the XPS 8100? The motherboard and the case would argue one of them?  I have a GB of Ram 1333 6, I have to increase it too?

    Thank you very much in advance for the help.

    I have not had to install a new ps. The 750 TI FTW attracts only and extra 25 watts and a regular 750 TI does not yet use this extra power. And Yes, you can change the ps in a 8100 but they are irregular in size but can be found. I'd say you'd be fine with any 750 cards and honestly, you can get 50 fps or better in most of the games with them, a lot of maps. My son has a ti 750 FTW in a xps 8700 and gets 70-80 fps in his favorite tank game.

  • X 51 R2 Nvidia GTX 960 video card update

    Hello, I currently stock r2 of Alienware x 51 with an Intel i5 running my graphics card is a 1023 MB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 645 (NVIDIA) and a block of power SUPPLY 240 w. I wanted to upgrade my graphics card to play the most demanding games like Arma 3 resources. I know that I could get a gtx 750ti graphics card no problem, but I want more. I've been looking and the card that seems to fit in my price range is the Nvidia GTX 960. I did research it and getting mixed reviews weather or not, he'll be back in my case. I spoke to several representatives of Dell and Alienware, and some say I can get the 960, some say I need a compact 960 and some people say that I can't pass the 960 at all, even with a 330w power adapter. I know I need to improve my diet from 240W to a PSU 330W before even thinking 960 GTX. I would like an administrator or someone with information to guide me in the correct path. If I can't get the 960 regular but need to get a smaller 960 please link me to some good options that would be compatible with my device. I don't mean to make any changes to my turn. Thanks for your help, I certainly need it! I am looking for the correct graphics card for some time now.

    So I guess.

    I have an ENVY 15 t-k200 (K2T37AV) with processor i7-5500u, 16 GB of ram, Intel HD Graphics 5500 and NVIDIA GTX 850 M running Windows 10 64. The problem is running any application requiring the use of the NVIDIA card, the computer does not him.  I went into NVIDIA Control Panel to select the NVIDIA card as the preferred graphics processor and selected the NVIDIA for specific programs, no change in performance.  I've updated all the drivers, no change in performance. On paper, this computer must manage the games and apps that I use without problems, but running 3DMark benchmarks, I get very low scores and any graphic training application that I use is minced.

    Please help... How can I get my graphics card work properly?  Is there a bios setting I need to change? Or?

    Thank you

    I contacted HP Support directly (funny, I thought it was part of the HP support). In a Nutshell, it 1) uninstall the NVIDIA driver and card 2) downloaded the latest driver from NVIDIA and 3) installed the new driver.  I checked that the computer was once again work correctly, go to the NVIDIA card if necessary using a program of video reference I used to diagnose the problem in the first place.

    The problem seems to be that if you're updating the NVIDIA driver without uninstall the old driver first, something is not and the rocking computer is more on the NVIDIA card when necessary. The NVIDIA Control Panel will be simply install the new driver updated without uninstall the old driver. Even if you go to HP or NVIDIA and download updated driver directly, or advisor to uninstall the old driver before you install the new driver.

    Even if you install the driver is the latest driver, follow these steps if the NVIDIA card does not work as it should be.

    I used 3DMark demo to diagnose my video card, when he showed my computer run better than 0% of the tested systems, I knew there was a problem.
