Windows 10 keeps disabling GeForce 980!.b

Sfc/scannow

Windows resource protection did not find any integrity violations

This seems to be a common reported problem with some versions of the Nvidia drivers. Download a different version, like 353.62, from the Nvidia download site

Installed 353.62 and I have gone back to error 43

Hi
i have had four goes at upgrading to Windows 10
The install goes ok but unfortunately the drivers for my GeForce 10 keep being disabled and I get error 43 in device manager.
i have had the same issue each time and been unable to get it to work and reverted back to w7.
i have tried to re install the drivers but although it says it is successful it still doesn't work and I get the error 43. Also the nvidia control panel won't open.

i am tempted to do a clean install but would be really miffed if it didn't work!
i have searched lots of forums but not found a solution that works.
i would very much appreciate some help
does anyone have any idea what I can do?

My suggestion: revert to the Windows 7 installation. Make an image of it. (I use Acronis True Image, but many have recommended the free version of Macrium Reflect.)

Then clean install 10. It should automatically activate online, as you have already activated it at least once as an upgrade.

You can turn off driver updates in Windows Update. I've done that, so that I can play with non-WHQL nVidia drivers.

Peter I tried your suggestion with Ddu and the linked file
i get the error 19 this hardware cannot start because it's configuration is either incomplete or damaged
any ideas ?

Download this driver http://international.download.nvidia...ational.hf.exe
Disable windows hardware driver updates - this is important.
boot to safe mode
while in safe mode run DDU and remove both the Intel drivers and the nvidia drivers
reboot and install the drivers above.

Peter have tried your suggestion twice now currently getting error 19 again with this message in the events box
Device PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_13C0&SUBSYS_111610DE&REV_A1\4&3535b5bd&0&0008 requires further installation.
any ideas?

Reseat the video card.

Hi
after my last attempt I was unable to go back to Windows 7 for some reason so I did a clean install as you suggested and after installing the network driver it installed the nvidia driver and it seems to be working.
i now have to reinstall everything else.

thanks for all the help
