Shez Posted October 8, 2023 Report Share Posted October 8, 2023 Hi, Im having a Issue with my Alienware m17x r4 Gpu, Can't install graphics drivers the same way I used too. I can install Very old drivers but anything recent does not work with the modded INFs I make.. Could someone with more experience make me a INF? for the latest driver (537.42) Alienware M17x R4 With GTX 980M 8GB, 120Hz EDP Screen, UEFI PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_13D7&SUBSYS_05AB1028 Thanks!

StefanG3D Posted October 9, 2023 Report Share Posted October 9, 2023 Several Alienware M series users already reported that problem here: https://forums.laptopvideo2go.com/topic/34429-how-to-mod-and-sign-nvidia-drivers-with-tpu-nvcleanstall/ Try the latest R450 driver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StefanG3D Posted October 9, 2023 Report Share Posted October 9, 2023 If nothing else works: i just remembered that driver 419.35 accidentially supports your 980M without modding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shez Posted October 9, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2023 I Couldn't get any R450 driver to work, I will try 419.35 now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shez Posted October 9, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2023 (edited) @StefanG3D still couldnt get it to work.. IDK why though ive tried NVcleaninstall and it still error 43.. Also tried your recommended drivers too, but driver 361.43 works.. I'm lost Could you possibly make me a driver?

StefanG3D Posted October 10, 2023 Report Share Posted October 10, 2023 (edited) I cannot make drivers. Did you mean a modded INF? I'm afraid the problem is DELL's BIOS Here is a yet older test driver, that installs w/o modding http://download.gigabyte.com/FileList/Driver/384.74_win10_64bitl.zip Edited October 10, 2023 by StefanG3D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shez Posted October 10, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2023 I couldn't open that link.. Yeah modded INF if possible? just seems like there's something i ain't doing right, not done it in about 2 years lol, I'm using driver 361.43 thats working, but would love a newer driver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StefanG3D Posted October 11, 2023 Report Share Posted October 11, 2023 For some reason the clipboard in Firefox cropped the prefix, try again https://download.gigabyte.com/FileList/Driver/384.74_win10_64bitl.zip Prema VBIOS probably at https://notebooktalk.net/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
