Extracting nvidia drivers from 10.4.2

Does anyone know how to extract the nvidia driver from 10.4.2 for use in 10.4.5?
Crash report refers to a com.apple.GeForce but I can't find anything on my system with that name. Hidden?

There's a few files that appear to be part of the video driver. They are: GeForce, NVDANV40Hal, and NVDAResman. They all have the same version and modified date and time. Below is what System Profiler reports for each of them (they're listed under Software->Extensions):

Obviously, if you choose to try and replace them with earlier versions, make a bootable backup/clone of your startup disk before the replacement. Replacing these files may cause more problems than it will solve. I hope it helps, though.

Should I upgrade my NVIDIA drivers from version 301.42 to 314.07 on my Mid-2010 MacBook Pro (6,2)?

Hello,
I was wondering if it would be wise for me to upgrade my MacBook Pro nvidia drivers from version 301.42 to the current version 314.07? Reason, I am asking this is because my MacBook Pro has the nvidia GeForce GT 330m processor with 256mb of video memory and I haven't updated my Windows 7 64bit Home Premium display drivers for about 7 months. At the time I installed the 301.42 driver it was the latest WHQL release, and back then I did the upgrade after installing the Bootcamp 4.0 drivers (from the Bootcamp Assistant which had the 26X.XX driver version), Windows 7 SP1, and all Windows Updates. I used a clean install on those drivers. So far, I haven't had any problems with the 301.42 driver which makes me sometimes double think whether I should upgrade the drivers or not to the 314.07 version. As a result this is why I go to these forums and ask what could be the best course of action in my case?
Thanks in advance!

Yes you should by all means update to the latest Nvidia drivers on the windows side of things. I presume you are using bootcamp (since thats really the only place this is relevant).
But yes! you should

Extracting individual drivers from BC 2.1 update ?

I am trying to sync a Windows PDA (Vista OS w/Parallels),,and don't want to do a total update for fear of getting problems that many of you are having trouble with.So, I am wondering whether I for example,get the bluetooth drivers (or any other separate drivers)directly out of the .exe process?By the way,I downloaded the 228mb update,placed it on my Parallels (Vista Desktop),clicked on the update to see what would happen, and absolutely nothing happened,not even a setup menu? I keep seeing mention that I should put my Leopard CD in to my drive to get drivers for BC,,but aren't those drivers already installed as part of the Leopard? From what I understand, my Parallels setup is not using BC (no separate partition setup), but still the Vista OS goes to get BC drivers I guess, and that is why I am thinking that I should be needing those drivers, but without the whole update.

The bootcamp drivers on the Leopard DVD are not installed anywhere by default. The Bootcamp assistant is, but not the drivers. The drivers are on the DVD in a separate partition... when you put the DVD into the computer with Windows running, you will see just the Bootcamp driver installer (not the Leopard installer.)
The BC 2.1 update is a .msp file embedded into a self extracting archive. I have tried a few tools to take apart the .msp with no luck.

Unable to install NVIDIA drivers on Windows 8 (Boot Camp)

I'm running Windows 8 on a secondary partition on my MacBook Pro (17-inch, 2009).
I have, in the past, been able to successfully install Windows 8 on a second partition on this mac and get everything working, including all of my device drivers. I had to erase that partition, though, so I no longer have that installation.
I've installed Windows 8 again, but I'm not able to get my NVIDIA GeForce 9600 GT or 9400M graphics drivers to install!
First of all, I tried installing both 5.0.5033 and 5.1.5621 support software. After a lot of hassle, I got 5.1.5621 to install, but only through the BootCamp\Drivers\Apple\BootCamp.msi file, not through the BootCamp\setup.exe file (the setup.exe tells me that this version of Boot Camp is not intended for this computer model).
When I install the drivers that way, they don't install the NVIDIA drivers.
Next, I've gone directly to the NVIDIA drivers folder inside the support software, and tried to install them from there. i've also downloaded newer versions of the NVIDIA drivers from their website, and with all versions of the NVIDIA drivers, I've had to go through a huge hassle to get them to go to the setup wizard (instead of telling me there's no compatible hardware).
Then, I managed to get them to start installing, but - after Windows has me confirm that I really want to install the driver, despite it's signature - the screen invariably goes black, and my computer shuts down instantly, in what I can only assume is a kernel panic.
This is incredibly frustrating, and I don't know what to do about it. I can't seem to find anyone else with the same problem. Can anyone help me?

BC 5.x drivers will cause problems. Have you considered using 4.0.4033 version. If your previous W8 installation continued to use BC 4.0.4033 drivers, they would work. Do you have the exact versions of drivers that you had on your previous W8 installation?

Yet another black screen on TTY with nvidia drivers

Hi everyone,
I've just changed my hardware and immediately installed a fresh Arch on it. Everything was fine until I installed the nvidia drivers: from that moment, once the boot is complete I get a normal (and working) GDM login screen, but I cannot switch to TTY with Ctrl+Alt+Fn. If I do, the screen goes black, but even worse, the monitor goes into sleep mode and I cannot get back to X (with Ctrl+Alt+F1).
The machine is still working correctly though, as I can get access to it via SSH. The only problem is that I cannot use the virtual consoles unless I want to lose all X display until the next reboot (restarting it via systemctl restart gdm doesn't work).
I also tried lightdm as a replacement but it's still the same.
However, when using the nouveau driver, everything works as expected and I can switch from one TTY to another as much as I want. Of course, I'd like to keep the nvidia driver for various reasons.
I found a lot of similar issues on the web and on this forum but none had this "additional little annoying thing" which is the sleep mode that can't be reverted but with a reboot.
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I found that at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI
Set up the BIOS in EFI or Legacy mode
Some recent computers (>2011) allow to set up the boot either in UEFI mode or in Legacy (not-EFI) mode. The way to carry out this setting depends on the computers, but generally this setting is located in the "Boot order" tab of the BIOS (to access the BIOS screens, it is generally necessary to press a key during the PC startup).
Note: Some BIOSes (e.g. American Megatrends' "Aptio", found on the Asus vivobook series) call Legacy mode "Compatibility Support Module" or simply "CSM".
So if that applies to your machine, you might be able to boot Windows7 with UEFI mode and Arch+Nvidia with Legacy BIOS mode, without changing anything to the installation (the BIOS boot loader seems to be compatible wih GPT partition table, but there is to configure something for it to work see https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GPT#BIOS_systems).
If you can't do that and you really do not want to use the nouveau driver, you have no other choice than to wait for Nvidia to release an UEFI compatible driver, and not to work in tty console mode.
You can also try to search how some has succeeded to use the efifb frame buffer with the nvidia driver, with special configurations.
But, apart from the BIOS switch between boot loaders, the two easiest approaches for you are either to use the nouveau driver or to not work in tty console mode when using the nvidia driver.
Maybe you could find something better but it will be more complicated, I don't know if you have time and motivation to go this way...
Nvidia will surely release a UEFI compatible driver sooner or later...
Regards.

No luck trying to extract .inf files from drivers downloaded as zip files

Hi,
I am trying to extract .inf files from drivers downloaded as zip files from the Toshiba website, but I'm having no luck.
I am trying to deploy images using WDS on server 2008 and need the inf files for this to succeed, does anyone have the answer to this problem.
thanks in advance.

Hi
I found this tip:
Someone wrote this:
+You have to run the installer, wait for it to get to the first point where you click Next to continue, and then leave it sitting there. Go into your system's Temp and find the particular one with the installation files inside it that were extracted, then copy it someplace, go back to the installer and cancel it.+
You could also try this freeware application to extract the package:

Can you update Video Drivers from Nvidia?

Hello,
I have an iMac 27-inch, late 2012 model with a built in Nvidia GTX - 660M 512 MB video card. Is it possible to use the Nvidia driver update for this build in card or should I only use Apple's video driver update? I'm sure there have been updates from Nvidia, but I haven't had a Apple update for at lease six months. I'm not having any problems, but like to keep current on drivers.
Thanks,
Dennis

In OS X, Apple provides GPU driver updates with every OS X update, so you don't have to worry about the driver. If you have Windows installed with Boot Camp, then you can install the most recent NVIDIA driver from the NVIDIA site > http://www.nvidia.com
Note that GPU drivers don't come as individual drivers, but they come with OS X updates. For example, updates like 10.8.5 or Mavericks may come with updated drivers

Should I use drivers from NVIDIA web site?

I have an MSI N570GTX Twin Frozr III Power Edition OC graphics card and have noticed that the NVIDIA web site has newer drivers than those available on the MSI web site. Can anyone please tell me whether I should use the NVIDIA drivers or should I stay with MSI drivers?

Quote from: Junior on 12-August-11, 20:53:21
Nvidia always!
I have now removed the MSI driver version 266.77 rebooted then installed version 280.26 from the NVIA web site. I am happy to report that the installation went without a hitch and everything seems to be working well.
Many thanks for your advice Junior.

Overscan missing from new Nvidia Drivers - Mac MIni 2010

So I was able to install new Nvidia drivers on my Mac mini 2010, however, there are no overscan options.. and my tv is connected via HDMI. Is there any workaround for this?

The final version of Appleworks 6 does in fact work on the Intel Mini under Leopard -- but Apple doesn't support it, nor ship it with the new Minis.
A free office suite that is MS Office compatible is NeoOffice:
http://www.neooffice.org/neojava/en/maindownload.php
a similar alternative is OpenOffice:
http://www.openoffice.org/
There is no office suite that is directly compatible with Appleworks files, but if you install AppleWorks 6 on your Mini, you could export files in formats that other office programs can read.

Extract drivers from boot image

I have a boot image and my team members added lot of drivers on top of boot images.... Now I want to get a report to get the list of drivers that are integrated
and their source path as I must have to keep them in a separate folder so that in my up coming migration project I can use them again to integrate in new boot images when migrated from sccm 2012 RTM to SP1 and R2
Kindly through some light on this
HunBoy Started learning from this page

You should not use the drivers from your old boot images in your new boot images.
Windows PE drivers are not the same for every verison of ConfigMgr.
Win PE 5.0 = SCCM 2012 R2
Win PE 4.0 = SCCM 2012 SP1
Win PE 3.0 = SCCM 2012 RTM
And the drivers you need are:
Win PE 5.0 = Windows 8.1
Win PE 4.0 = Windows 8
Win PE 3.0 = Windows 7
Windows PE 5.0 also includes many new drivers so drivers that you needed in older versions of PE might not be required any more...

Clean install: which nVidia drivers

Hi,
I should revceive my K8N Neo2 tomorrow and I was wondering: should I install the nVidia drivers available on MSI's homepage (v5.03) or the ones available on nVidia's homepage (v. 5.10) ?
Franck

The motherboard comes with a driver cd and a floppy .
The floppy i got was labled NVSA020 and is the IDE/RAID drivers (2.5) on diskette
which you need when installing windows to a sata / raid .
If you are not needing the win install with press F6 to load raid drivers just forget about the floppy diskette .
Otherwise just prepare a new empty one and copy the following files to it (2.6) :

Windows 7 RTM drivers and native nVidia Drivers for T61p here, supports CUDA

Since this seems scattered, I thought I would post these links to see if they help anyone.
Get your Windows 7 RTM drivers here:
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/WIN7-BETA.html
Get your nVidia 570M Windows 7 drivers, supports CUDA, x32 and x64 here:
http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/v7/site/Search.aspx?q=nvidia%20quadro%20570M%20Windows%207
I have updated my T61p with all the RTM drivers and have been using this nVidia driver for about 2 weeks. Flawless.
There are many nVidia cards on this Microsoft site, I have only tested the 570M drivers. Feel free to search for your model of driver if you have something else.
My be old news for people, but if it helps anyone, then great.
-Paul

I wasn't aware that Microsoft had this sort of thing available. Now that I installed Microsoft's 570m driver, my NVIDIA Control Panel actually works. I previously did an install by manually selecting the file after downloading and extracting the driver from NVIDIA's website.
On a side note, both the Microsoft site driver and the slightly newer NVIDIA driver give me the same performance index scores (5.8 `graphics` and 6.1 `gaming graphics`) so I would reccomend using the Microsoft one since the Control Panel works with it.

Satellite P500-12D - Can I use the nVidia drivers?

The Latest NVIDIA Drivers on the Toshiba update website are 8.15.11.8642 but there are newer versions on the NVIDIA website. I would like ot update the NVIDIA Drivers but I am having difficalties.
I tried to install version 195.62 (Win7 64bit) for the Geforce 200M Series fron the NVIDIA SITE but the install doesn't complete. I get the message: "The NVIDIA Setup program could not locate any drivers that are compatible with your current hardware. Setup will now exit."
Does Toshiba only allow their own versions of the drivers? Is there a way to allow the NVIDIA drivers to istall?

Hi
Counter question: Why you want to use other display drivers? Are you not satisfied with the Toshiba drivers or can you notice any problems in Windows?
Theoretically its possible to use the drivers from nVidia directly but dont forget that they are not pretested on your notebook. Your graphic card could be overheating and so you will loose the warranty.
Satellite P500 is pretty new so I assume Toshiba will update the display driver in next time too. Just have a look on the page from time to time. ;)

790FX-GD70 + unlocked 720BE + Nvidia Drivers = Failed boot?

Good evening folks! Been quite a while since I last played in these forums (the rig in my sig is 3+ years old, and long gone.... ), but it's great to see that the tradition of a helpful community seems to have continued on in my absence.
I've didn't have any luck with a search for previous posts on the issue I'm having, but if it's a common issue and I missed a post or faq I'd be happy for a link.
So now to the meat......
I recently returned from the darkside and purchased my first AMD system since AMD dropped S939. I decided on the 790FX-GD70 paired with a 720be and some OCZ ram. Everything on the board seems to be working fine, but I ran into a snag when I loaded the 1.52 beta bios in order to unlock the 4'th core.
The core unlocks fine, and XP completes the initial load (scroll bar), but hangs on a black screen just before getting to the logon page. I immediately suspected a problem loading the vid drivers, and removed the nvidia drivers. The stock XP vid drivers allowed me to boot into windows normally which verified my original suspicions (CPU-Z confirms 4 cores). Re-installing the latest drivers causes windows to hang at the same place, and this doesn't happen without ACC unlocking the 4'th core.
Any ideas?
My current hardware is:
790FX-GD70
720BE
OCZ 1600 DDR3
Sparkle GTX275 Plus

Quote from: miles4 on 02-August-09, 10:24:56
I won't post passwords to MSI FTP, but Tony over at OCZ was good enough to post the the bios updates: http://www.ocztechnologyforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=59825
Cool!!! Thanks a lot for the link, not only did I get the bios file, but it also put me in the right area to check out Tony's suggested settings on this board for my memory.
edit: It might be a week or so by the time I get around to playing with this (I have other committments with the board that can be satisfied by OCing just the 3 cores for now), but I will report back if I have any luck with the 153 bios, or if an older set of drivers makes the difference.

No ... the problem is in the kernel that comes precompiled.
I did this test.
The first time I installed the kernel I unloaded nvidiafb since I dont like it.
When I install nvidiafb back something strange happends. Nvidia module fails to load.
The modprobe sais it cannot find the device nvidia.ko ... but it is there!
So my best guess is, there is something with the kernel. Any ideas?
Problem resolved, installed older driver
