    Hello everyone, i recently installed a new ssd into my m11x r2 and had to reinstall the os and all the drivers. The problem is that i can not seem to find all the drivers even though i looked high and low. Also the more pressing matter is that the driver for the nvidia 335m cant seem to be installed. i have tried all the versions and all of them are unable to install with the same error being the 'unable to find compatible device'. So i thought i would ask for help in this matter to point me to drivers that work so i can reinstall again. Thanks once again for taking the time to read this!

    Did another clean install again, exact same procedure, but it worked this time. So problem solved, guess it was just a one off thing. Thanks.

    I'm glad that you got it sorted out. Sometimes what happens with the nvidia driver is that you need to install the Intel driver 1st.
