    Can you list your specs? Is it a factory as in it came with a gtx 680m?
    You should be able to use the ones direct from nvidia, its version 310.90 you need.

    list of specs will help. if its an r3 then you need to modify the .inf if its an r4 then it should install fine.

    vic_doom69 is right, if it's a new R4 then the drivers from geforce.com should install without a problem. Let us know the detailed info of the machine.

    Why are you installing old drivers. You can go straight to 310.90.
