Really stuck with 980M how to install driver?

Having real difficulties modding the inf for my new 980M.

Can anymore shed light on how this is done. It was super easy with the 680M.

Now I cannot find the necessary information anywhere to mod the inf for the 980M.

Thanks!

 

Did you check out www.laptopvideo2go.com?

 

Finally managed after 2 hours to do it !

I´m a bit lost here, why do you need a modded inf at all, because you´ve upgraded an older AW?

 

If I try to install a normal driver I simply get a message saying neither my OS nor my GPU is compatible. Also I couldn't download from laptopvideo2go. Kept getting internal error message.

I simply modded the inf myself after finding a video on youtube showing the needed lines for the 980M to work. The problem was my old guide I used to use is too old and doesn't have the information for the 980M listed so I was stuck.

 

Please share this video, I`m currently trying to do the same for 970M and 8770w - maybe it will help me too.
Also, how to download moded newest inf from laptopvideo2go, I see only post about it without any link - need account there or what?

 

It is FAR easier to simply download a driver direct from NVidia an then edit the inf file yourself. When I have time I can edit this post with the 970M ID and then you can do it in seconds.

 

Believe me, I tried everything and I`m lost...

Try this:

You need to install drivers using modded .inf file from laptopvideo2go.com. It's not very difficult:
1. Go to laptopvideo2go.com
2. Click "Drivers" tab
3. Go to Device Manager -> Display Adapters -> "Properties" of any GTX980M -> "Details" tab
4. Select "Hardware Ids" from the drop-down menu
5. Copy required values from "Hardware Ids" to laptopvideo2go "Search terms" field
6. Set other search parameters at laptopvideo2go, as desired
7. Click on "Filter"
8. Download latest modded .inf file from laptopvideo2go.com and the latest NVidia driver
9. Unpack the driver
10. Copy (or replace) the modded .inf file into the folder, where you unpacked the driver
11. Run the driver installer
12. Reboot
13. Enjoy

 

Thanks, but all drivers download from laptopvideo2go are gone due to HDD failure and server crash. They are setting/migrating to a new infra but drivers will be no more.
But really, it`s only a matter of their inf file - can`t find it here -> http://forums.laptopvideo2go.com/topic/31267-inf-v6037/
That`s why I`m trying to do inf mod by myself.

Ok, found them http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/infs/

 

You should download drivers directly from NVidia. You only need the .inf file from laptopvideo2go.com

 

It`s not that easy, special case here!
