    Hi guys!

    I have bought a gtx675m for my R3...and I just installed it...and I can see the desktop but with a 640 resolution and in devices there is a message like: vga un know
    I'm trying to install the drivers for the 675 but any time I try to install it I receive a message like: there is no hardware for this software..

    Please what can I do?? I'm desperate...and this important because I pay money and I need to know if this graphic is compatible or work in my R3!

    thanks in advance!

    (and apologize for my English ;)

    Usualmente lo que yo trataría de hacer es re-instalar ambos controladores.
    Tanto la de Intel como la de Nvidia.
    Encima de todo eso, recuerda que tienes el "OnScreenDisplay (OSD) Driver". Dependiendo si está instalado Puedes usar Fn+F7 para cambiar a Optimus o Discrete only.

    Como podemos reinstalar los controladores? al intentar instalarlos nos dice que: El controlador de graficos no puede encontrar hardware compatible..

    how can we reinstall the drivers?: any time that we are trying the nvidia setup said: The graphic controller couldn't find compatible hardware.
    We have uninstall all the nvidia drivers before..

    Thanks Wasserman!!

    Me ha servido reiniciando el equipo un par de veces, y asegurarme que el hardware se pueda encontrar en el Administrador de Dispositivos. Tambien intento presionar Fn+F7 antes de reiniciar.
