Y510p and problem with Update Nvidia Driver

Hi everyonei have problem with updating my y510p lenovo laptop nvidia driver ,my current nvidia driver version is 327.62 which i download from lenovo website,Now for better performance in new games like gta v and witcher3 ,i decide to updating nvidia driver,first remove my nvidia graphic driver from add or remove then download nvidia ver 350 from nvidia official web site , which nvidia website confirm it support my graphic card which is Gt755m , then i install new ver and during install i check clean install , after successful install , restart laptop , then there was problem . when i try to open nvidia control panel it wont running and an error showed up and said "You are not currently using a display attached to an NVIDIA GPU" .i try to open a game , game running in really low fps and i find out game run on hd graphic of my laptop and my nvidia graphic wont run .The only way to repair was i install my last nvidia driver 327.62 and run a system restore .guys what is your suggestion and how i can update my y510p nvidia driver ?Thanks   

Hi Y510Man,
     The video graphics installation order is important. You need to install the Intel Graphics first, and then do the Nvidia. IIRC you should un-install the Nvidia driver, then re-install (or upgrade) the Intel HD Graphics driver. Reboot, and install the new Nvidia driver.
     I don't know why, but every time I upgraded my Y470 Nvidia driver, I had to use this procedure. First install, or re-install, the Intel driver, then install the Nvidia. You can't just upgrade the Nvidia driver without a re-install of the Intel. I think it has to do with the Optimus setting, and the automatic switching.
    Let us know how it goes.
Cheers

  • I installed Windows 8.1 bootcamp but I'm having problems with the nvidia driver

    Windows 8.1 is boot camped and it works perfectly, Almost. Ill find myself scrolling, usually with the trackpad, sometimes with a mouse, and the screen will go black, flicker, and resume. It will also stop the driver in games when i press keys too quickly. It seems to be an input problem but i don't see how the keyboard and trackpad affect the video driver. I get an error message that says "NVIDIA driver has temporarily stopped but has recovered." I have installed the latest drivers from the NVIDIA Website as well as all windows 8.1 updates. Sometimes its bad enough that the computer reboots completely. Its getting frustrating as i can't complete tasks or enjoy recreational time. Has anyone had this issue and been able to fix it?
    NVIDIA driver fails but recovers(or Reboots computer) when

    hi
    did you install sw ide when you installed system drivers?
    nvidesm can be nvidia ide drivers.
    they work for some and fore som not.
    they messed up my harddrives.
    when installing you get asked if you want to install them or not.
    i dont know if these ide drivers are included in 2.03 but thought it could be worth mention.
    but they are included on the cd that came with the motherboard.
    i read in here that you dont have to reinstall windows to get rid of them.
    you only have to install system drivers again and say no when asked to install them.
    bye

  • Problems with updating display driver

    Hi! I have a problem: I'm using Premiere Elemets 9 and I need to update the display driver. But when I try, it says: "The update server is not responding.The server might be offline temporarily, or the Internet of firewall settings may be incorrect. Please try again".
    And I try againg and it's the same. What can I do? I need to do it in order to continue editing!!!!!!
    Do I need to unistall and install Premiere Elements 9 again?

    Try doing a manual update, to work around/past your security/firewall/antivirus settings
    Premiere Elements Updates http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=101&platform=Windows
    Use Google to find the update site for your exact brand/model of card... such as searching for

    or

  • Flash video image problem with newest nVidia driver

    I've got a very weird display error since the last update. Basically, whenever I play flash video and afterwards close the browser (chromium), any purely black surfaces will display the full flash player image. The effect is only visible in the "first" window of a xmonad tab, that means if I cycle the window positions it will be in a different window. The others are not affected. When I restart X, I can see the flash video image flashing up shortly on the black screen. Restarting X fixes the issue. I cannot take any screenshot of the problem because the error is NOT visible on the screenshot. Therefore I suspect that some frame buffer used for the flash player is not getting cleared properly after exiting the browser, but it's really little more than a wild guess.
    As there are multiple components involved, I'm at a loss of where this might be coming from. I hope someone might be able to shed some light on this situation. Please post here if you have the same problem or have any idea why this happens!
    My setup:
    -nvidia 260.19.36-2
    -flashplugin 10.2.152.27-1
    -chromium 9.0.597.94-1
    -xmonad 0.9.2-1
    -xmonad-contrib 0.9.2-1

    if you asking about a bug reported on arch linux bugtracker, then you are doing it the wrong way.
    flash and nvidia are closed source, we can't do anything. A better place is to submit bugs to nvidia and adobe.
    Now i see that nvidia 270.26 was released. Maybe you want to check that out:

    Here is a little OpenGL program, that draws a triangle using index buffers.
    (To OpenGL gurus.. spot anything wrong ?)
    int main()
    sf::Window win(sf::VideoMode(400,400,32),"Manasij");
    GlewInit();

    glBindBuffer(GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER,ebo);

    //glBindVertexArray(0);
    glUseProgram(program.getHandle());
    //glBindVertexArray(vao);
    glClearColor(1.0f,1.0f,1.0f,1.0f);
    while(win.isOpen())
    sf::Event eve;
    while(win.pollEvent(eve))
    if(eve.type==sf::Event::Closed)
    win.close();
    glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);
    // glDrawArrays(GL_TRIANGLES,0,3);
    glDrawElements(GL_TRIANGLES,3,GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE,(GLvoid*)0);
    win.display();
    glDeleteBuffers(1,&vbo);
    glDeleteBuffers(1,&ebo);
    glDeleteVertexArrays(1,&vao);
    return 0;
    The program 'works' fine, but whenever I close the window, thus exiting the loop, a wild segfault appears!
    gdb says that:
    Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
    0x00007ffff557d164 in ?? () from /lib/libnvidia-glcore.so.302.17
    Here is the complete code with a makefile: compile and test if you have sfml and glew installed (repo versions, nothing exotic !).
    https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B0oubb … 0owXzhRTEU

    You need to break the "while(win.isOpen())" loop after you win.close().  The segfault is occuring because you glDrawElements() one last time after you've already closed the window (and presumably destroyed the openGL context).
    I'd suggest using gdb to attack bugs like this.  It can be extremely helpful:
    Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

    I  face problems with the Nvidia 8800 GS on my iMac 24'' 3.06Ghz intel core duo. OS 10.06.08. What can I do to solve the problem and if you recommend upgrade to mountain Lion

    If you want to sync it to the iPad from that Mac, you need to upgrade it to at least 10.5.8.
    If you want to copy the music to another Mac, you don't. Move the iTunes folder of the item in the Finder's sidebar over as you would any other folder. If you put it somewhere other than the Music folder, launch iTunes with the Option key held down and point it to that location.

    nowadays have many user have problem with update to ios7 and need active with apple id maybe in the future in order escape from these problems must be stop use these products else. Because of simple user don't know about this technology and sometime just hear from other user that it 's difficult to use then force they change phone that use to handle to another.

    It is a feature to discourage the theft of iPhones by making them useless if resold. It's not going anywhere. It's simple: just don't buy a phone until you make sure that the activation lock has been disabled.

  • Apple new macbook pro dosent have a disk drive. Does the older model have a problem with the disc drive and so is removed in the new model?

    apple new macbook pro dosent have a disk drive. Does the older model have a problem with the disc drive and so is removed in the new model?

    No. Apple replaced the disk drive with a solid state drive (SSD) instead. The SSD is faster the old disk drive.

    problem with updated find my iPhone (FMi) app: when I attempt to open the FMi app, it tells me that I need to be a registered developer and run iOS7 to do so; is anyone else having this problem?  I got the app as a regular update to my existing FMi app which worked great.

    The problem is being reported in the news media, yes. Apparently someone at Apple jumped the gun and uploaded the update before it was ready. They'll probably issue another update shortly, I would expect, but you can go here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
    and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store. If you have a backup copy of the older version of the app, remove the newer version, restore the old version to iTunes on your computer, and resync.
    Update: Well, that was certainly quick. As of a short time ago, various sites are reporting that the Find My iPhone app is no longer displaying the previous error message. If it still is for you, delete it from your iPhone and re-download from the iTunes Store.
    Regards.

    I recently downloaded the latest iTunes for Windows update, and now when I open iTunes my menus are in Korean. I live and work in Korea but want my menus in English like they always have been. I've never had this problem with updates before. How can I get English back? I'll appreciate any help.

  • [SOLVED] Problem with second SATA drive

    My laptop has two hard drive bays, and just recently I added a second SATA drive (moved it from my old laptop) to the extra bay.
    Now, anytime the second hard drive /dev/sdb has any heavy disk activity, it appears to cause a shutdown of the SATA port for the first drive (/dev/sda)!  Though the second drive is still fine, and I can still write to it until the system crashes from the root drive (on /dev/sda) being shutdown.
    If I don't mount and use the second drive, the first drive works just fine, and I can pound it with traffic without issue.
    I can reproduce this problem by copying large amounts of data to drive 2.
    This is when I get in my dmesg when the first SATA drive shuts down:

    I have experimented, and found that if I turn off NCQ on the kernel command line in my bootloader (libata.force=noncq), that it takes longer before the problem occurs.  Though, if I write enough to the second drive, it does still happen after a while, just greatly reduced its chances of happening.
    Is it possible that the old drive (sdb) is causing the problem?  I noticed that it is much noisier than I remember when the drive head moves around.
    Another curiosity while I was trying to duplicate the problem:
      - I start a large file copy from sda -> sdb
      - At the same time in another terminal, I do "find / -print"
      - When I hear the drive 2 head moving, it pauses the output of the "find" command.
    Every time I hear the head move, I see the find output pause.  Its almost like the drive seek on drive 2 causes the whole Sata controller to pause while the head moves.  Very odd!
    Anyone have any ideas?   I think the next thing I will try is borrow a drive from another machine, and do the big write to it to see if I get the same results.
    If it is of any help, here is some more info on the laptop:

    It appears my drive one really is failing.  It was the first drive and not the second making the loud head seek sound.  I borrowed another drive from a friend, and copied my drive one to it.   No problems with the new drive in place.

  • Photoshop CS5.1 Crashes Upon Opening: "Photoshop has encountered a problem with the display driver-"

    Every time I try to open photoshop I get a window that pops up and says:
    "Photoshop has encountered a problem with the display driver, and has temporarily disabled GPU enhancements.  Check the video card manufacturer's website for the latest software.
    GPU enhancements can be enable in the Performance panel of Preferences."
    Then windows shuts the program down.  The details of the problem are:
    "Files that help describe the problem:

    16GB RAM

    Intel i7 core 2.2 GHz
    12 GB of memory
    The error happens so quickly that I don't have time to do anything.  Please help.  >.<  I've been on hold for *checks phone* 2 hours exactly.  Wow.  It is a legit copy and was working last month with no trouble.  I've updated the drivers and tried a few solutions that have worked for other people that I found on Google (such as disabling CUDA and setting my "power management mode" to "prefer maximum performance" on my video card) but so far nothing has worked.
    Thanks in advance!

    It has stopped crashing because somehow it turned off "Enable GL Drawing" on its own because I could never even get a menu open.  Not sure how it did that but I am grateful.  I still get the error when I open Photoshop up but at least it hasn't crashed yet.  At the time when it was crashing I never would have been able to get you the system info due to the speed that it was crashing upon just opening the program.  In case you still need it:
