I've tried two different versions of the 12.90 nvidia drivers and when I unzip them I cant find the install path. I been up for to long and I just want to get this done before I pass out , I got my new system put together but I cant seem to do this I am very tired I've been up for two days!

I have a leadtek ultra video card

An install?
Go start-settings-control panel-system-device manager-display adapters-your video card-properties-driver-update-specify location.

Not all driver versions come with the auto installer.

you might also get an error message saying the drivers arnt certified but you should be able to go to advanced and override that.

Good Luck

I just gave it a try but the zipped driver isnt showing up in the folder I have it stored in. Its wierd because I've double checked I do have two different downloads of 12.9 whql drivers in my temp files , I also have a zipped rain download and some other zipped file and none of them are showing up. I tryed moving the zipped fives around to other file folders but its not working.

I was thinking maybe if I unzipp everthing fom the 12.9 into its own subfolder then maybe it will register and I can undate my drivers.

Update: I tried to extract the zip file then update , well it appeared to work. When my comp. restarted the original VGA drive was installed and I was in safe mode so I just reinstall everthing of my driver cd. I guess I'll go try something else *shrug*. Maybe its because I keep trying to use 12.9 w9x versions and I have win98?

I would appreciate anymore help you can give me I want these nw drivers.
