Can not install NVIDIA Display Drivers

I have a T61 (7664-17U) with XP SP2. 
For sometime now I've had problems with the NVIDIA display drivers.  Occasionally my NVIDIA drivers disappear and are replaced by VGA .  I notice this when I can't Standby or Hibernate my system, those options are grayed out.  Also, interacting with the display is difficult..
I've tried several times to update my 12/2007 drivers to the latest ones from the Lenovo site.  The latest drivers appear to be installing (InstallShield?) but I get a message after a few minutes that "The system has not been modified. To install the program at a later time, run the installation again."  No other information.
I found out early that if I install the old drivers everything was OK, until yesterday.  Yesterday when I tried to install the old drivers I got
" Error Code: -5004 : 0x80070005 rror InformationSetupDLL\SetupDLL.cpp (1968 PAPP:NVIDIA Display Drivers PVENDOR:NVIDIA Corporation (http://www.nvidia.com/) PGUID:EFB7D050-CAD2-11D4-B34D-00105A1C23DD $9.1.0.429
@Windows XP Service Pack 2 (2600) IE 6.0.2900.2180."
I tried several iterations of installing the drivers including downloading the latest ThinkVantage installer.
How can I solve this problem?  Should I try downloading the latest drivers directly from NVIDIA website?
I'm very appreciate of any help!  Thanks, Tilly

"Should I try downloading the latest drivers directly from NVIDIA website?"
You can't install drivers obtained from the NVidia website. You'll get a "No compatible hardware found" message.
You're supposed to only install video drivers obtained from Lenovo.
If your T61 is still under warranty, a request for service is in order.

  • Satellite P105 - Can't install nVidia display driver

    I tried completing the download multiple times for the nVidia Display Driver 9.7.5.4.
    The first times the setup would not complete citing "that this computer does not have the correct hardware.." , then the Windows message came up and said that "if this setup did not complete successfully click here blabla" and I did that.
    Now when I run the setup it still stops in the same spot. But now it says that *"the setup can not be completed because this driver only runs on Windows Vista, and this is not Windows Vista." But the thing is I do have Windows Vista!*

    Hi
    > Current Display Driver: Mobile Intel(R) 945 GM Express ChipSet Family
    And then you want to install an nVidia display driver?
    LOL :D
    I think you can not install an nVidia display driver because your notebook is equipped with a Intel chipset and graphic card.
    You will never be able install nVidia display driver and so did get the message that you don’t have the correct hardware.
    Intel graphic cards and nVidia graphic cards are different things so do not mix it!
    Some P105 was equipped with nVidia cards and otheres with Intel card and it seems that you have an Intel card.

  • Lenovo b560 can't install nvidia display driver

    hello i've learned that lenovo b560 computers got 2 graphic cards one is intel hd graphics other is nvidia 310m but i can't install the nvidia driver it always gives the no compatible drivers found error :/

    hi Frost1,
    Welcome to the Forums.
    The B560 with Intel+Nvidia graphics uses the Nvidia Optimus Technology to switch between the Intel GPU (for power saving) and the Nvidia GPU (for applications that requires more processing power).
    If you have Windows 7, try the following:
    1. Restart the machine and hit F8. On the menu, select "Disable driver signature enforcement".
       - Sample image
    2. Install these drivers then reboot:
    1st:   Intel Onboard Graphics Driver for Windows 7 (64-bit)
    2nd:  NVIDIA Display Driver for Windows 7 (64-bit)
    If you still get the error, can you PM me your serial number or indicate your machine type (e.g., 0679-3JU) to check the PC specs.
    Regards

  • Satellite C50-B-13D - Can not install display driver

    Hello,
    I have a notebook Toshiba Satellite C50-B-13D. I had to reinstall my Windows 7 Professional 32 Bit OS. Now i have a problem with the drivers. For example i can not install the display driver. After i give permission to make changes on my computer the Error message "This computer does not meet the minimum requierments to install this software. Does anybody know what i can do?

    So you need to install the Intel HD 4000 display driver.
    Usually you have two possibilities to install the driver.
    You can execute the installation.exe (setup.exe) file or you will install the driver within the device manager. I recommend you to choose the 2nd option in case the standard procedure does functions.
    The driver from Toshiba EU driver page has to be unzipped.
    Within the display-20140528122046 folder you would find the TC40214900E.exe
    This is an zipped folder. Click right on this file and choose “unzip here”.
    Now you will get another TC40214900E folder where you would find all the driver files (dll).
    Next step: go to device manager, choose graphic card and click update/install driver
    Now choose the “Advanced” installation option and point to the unzipped driver folder.
    The system will pick up the files automatically and you could finish the installation.
    That’s it.
    Hello
    I have same problem and can i use mentioned driver "TC40214900E.exe"? my notebooks model is satellite C55-B5201

  • New kernel and problems installing nvidia-legacy drivers

    I just compiled new kernel, and I can't install nvidia-legacy drivers properly. Pacman installs them, but the module (nvidia.ko) goes to /lib/modules/2.6.19-ARCH, and I want it to 2.6.19.2.. It doesn't work if I just copy the module..
    I've compiled kernel many times without problems when I was still using Slackware.  So, what do I need to configure to use the new module directory? I Propably made some small/stupid mistake..
    I tried legacy drivers from nvidia.com, but they didnt compile.. weird, gonna try that again too..

    You need to install the nvidia drivers, or any other non-kernel drivers, specifically for the kernel you are using. Arch packages the nvidia drivers to work with the Arch kernel packages, and the "Arch way" to deal with your situation is to modify the appropriate PKGBUILD to match your kernel, create a custom package with makepkg, and install it with pacman.
    You can also use the nvidia installer, but in that case the nvidia files installed on your system will not be under pacman's control.

  • Not Able To Install Nvidia Graphics Drivers

    Hello all!
    This past week I just finished putting my new system together with a K8N Diamond Plus. Only major problem right now is i am not able to install Nvidia's drivers. Below are my components...
    XP 64-Bit Edition
    MSI K8N Diamond Plus
    AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+
    BFG 7900 GTX 512MB
    1 Gig Coirsar Ram
    2 Wester digital HD in Raid 0
    When I try and install the graphics drivers i get the message " The NVIDIA Setup program could not locate any drivers that are compatible with your current hardware. Setup will now exit."
    I used the chip set drivers listed here: http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/driver/dvr/spt_dvr_detail.php?UID=710&kind=1
    Also I have tried the ones from NVIDIA's site: http://www.nvidia.com/object/nforce_nf4_winxp64_x16_6.83
    The graphics drivers i used are from NVIDIA's site: http://www.nvidia.com/object/winxp64_81.98.html
    BFG Tech support guy had me look under display adapters in device manager. It only has Standard VGA Graphics Adapter listed. He said I did not have my chip set drivers installed (though i have), or the motherboard was not recognizing it. Also he said they do not support XP-64 and would not offer me any more support so long as i run it.
    I just can not believe that XP 64, 7900 GTX, and this great K8N Diamond Plus can not get along.
    Any advice anyone has for getting my Diamond Plus and my graphics card to jive together would be greatly appricated.
    Thankyou all!!

    Thankyou guys for the responses. I was able to find drivers that worked with my card here..

  • Printer CD will not install software and drivers

    Laptop: Acer Aspire 3690 series
    Model: BL50
    OS: Windows Vista SP2 Home Basic (32 bit)
    Printer: HP Desktop F4100 series
    *To my knowledge both laptop and printer are old models, with the laptop being as old as 7 years.
    Short Story: After formatting my laptop and reinstalling the OS, the CD won't install the drivers from the disc so the printer would work correctly on my computer. It always results in an error.
    Long Story: My Windows Vista laptop had an issue. There was a problem with the OS that kept mysteriously eating up space of the computer hard drive. It was so bad that the computer kept reporting it had 0 bytes of free space left on the hard drive. I always had to find free up space somehow because the printer won't print without free space. I couldn't even use my superiorly better computer because the printer only works with Windows 2000, XP and Vista, it doesn't work with Windows 7 (I tried). One day I decided I had enough of it and reinstalled the OS of the laptop. I used DriverMax and exported all of the drivers from my laptop to my flash drive since I don't remember my laptop coming with a driver disc. Everything went smooth and my laptop was operating like new except for one issue: No matter how many times I tried, I could not install the printer drivers from the printer disc onto the computer. 
    When the disc is installing the drivers and software, this would show:
    and then this error:
    I wasn't sure if I there was a model number on the printer or not but here is a photo of it:
    Getting help from the HP Support forum seems to be my only option so hopefully I can find a solution here. Thank you to anyone in advance who can help me resolve this I would really like to get this fix as I not too long ago bought several cartridges for this printer to last a while, and there's not much money to buy a printer OR another computer.
    This question was solved.

  • Can Not Calibrate the display. The factory profile for the display...

    I have an apple cinema display 20" and a mac powerbook g4 (1.25 GHx PowerPC g4, 1.25 GB DDR SDRAM) with os 10.4.9. All of my software is up to is date.
    I used to be able to calibrate my colorsync profiles. My computer's hard drive recently failed and I had it replaced and the system re-installed (If any of you live in NYC, I took it to tek Serve, and they know what they are doing).
    Now when I try to calinbrate my monitor I get the error "Can Not Calibrate the display. The factory profile for the display could not be found." Like I said I have updated to 10.4.9 but this hasnt solved my problem. I have restarted my computer, and this has also not solved my problem.
    Any help!?! Please! This is important to me as I do color work for print and I need to see colors accurately When I use my computer.

    I fixed it already. There was indeed a problem in the preferences. In my case I removed the whole preferences folrder to the desktop (which forces the computer to rebuild it fresh) and it worked fine! Then one at a time 'as it was needed, I put back the preferences for other applications (mail, itunes etc). Turns out no preferences was better than whatever corrupted preference was in there causing the problem. You know what I mean. If no preferences are there the applications start over building it new automatically. So it was like a preferences restart. sorta.
    Unfortunately, since I dont have applecare I had to spend 50 bucks on the phone with apple to figure this out. It's amazing how long it took them to actually pinpoint the problem. Hopefully if anyone gets that error in the future they'll find this post on google and save some bucks.
