    Can't Update NVIDIA GeForce Driver

    Hi Everyone,
    I keep getting notifications on my PC from NVIDIA’s app, GeForce Experience, saying that an updated driver is available for my GPU. Below is the driver update that is available and the one I currently have, as well as the message I get when I try to update it.

      Can you visit the nVidia website & download the driver direct? If you don’t know which driver you require they have an auto scan feature to find the correct graphics card.

        I have read in some articles,that NVidia Geforce Experience has caused so many issues,like the one you are showing that they suggest that you can un-install experience as a fix and like Bastet suggested just download the current driver yourself.. I have tried this on one of my pc’s running win 7. I got tired of the constant pop ups and the same issue that you have,so i un-install it,as it is separate from the Nvidia main software and it works well on my pc. Many in the articles i have read consider the Geforce experience just a bundle of fluff software that just causes to much irritation..

        EDIT: Also just read this fix as well. If you want to keep GeForce Experience it was suggested that you un-install your current Geforce Experience and install the updated version and it seems to function as expected,especially if you are a gamer.
