But things haven’t gone to plan this time.Īccording to reports, Nvidia graphic card users are reporting an issue where the drivers are not installing after downloading the March update ( 1, 2, 3, 4, 5).

Users should update their Dell notebook graphics drivers only with drivers that support the NVIDIA GPU in the notebook. This support is necessary to ensure that Dell-specific driver settings are preserved during the driver update. To resolve this, beginning with Release 361 drivers, the NVIDIA installer will block the driver installation if the driver does not support the specific Dell notebook. Users attempting to update the driver may select a driver that supports the graphics card within the Graphics Amplifier but not the notebook GPU, resulting in loss of all Dell-specific driver settings for the notebook. The driver release available on may not include support for that hardware until a later release. The graphics driver that comes pre-installed on Dell notebooks is configured to support the graphics hardware included in the notebook. This occurs on Dell notebooks connected to the Alienware Graphics Amplifier with the graphics driver preinstalled, and an attempt is made to update with a Release 361 or later NVIDIA driver.
