nVidia display adaptor not listed in device manager

Hi guys,

I have a strange problem. I have 2 operating systems on my laptop, and on the one I game, I unsintalled the nvidia drivers, and tried to upgrade to the latest. I have an 860m and the intel 4000.

The weird thing is, after uninstall, when switching to nvidia card, there are no display adaptors listed in my device manager, therefore I cannot install the nvidia drivers (no hardware found for the drivers -msg when trying to install nvidia drivers).

What should I do? It's not the card, as on the other operating system it shows fine.

I tried a system restore, but it fails for unknown reason.
Any help?

 

Can you use the keypress to change from one adaptor to the other (discrete to built-in)? Alternatively, try looking into the bios setup screen at bootup and see which adapter is currently running. Is the Alienware command center installed? I believe the FN+F7 key combo only works with the Command Center app installed.

 

where did you get the latest drivers.
there has been a total cockup by nvidia and some numpty has loaded the 32bit driver on the 64bit link.

just in case you can download the 64bit 306.02 > http://forum.notebookreview.com/sager-clevo/685449-nvidia-beta-306-02-notebook-drivers.html

 

I got 3 different sets of drivers, none installed. I remember having ccleaned some registry, those must have screwed something up. I googled it no answers.
Could not restore, but I tried all combinations, then went into safe mode, clicked repair my computer and restored from there. IT worked! Spent a good couple of hours though. Thanks anyway. Might backup the ccleaner registry from now on.
