Hello as my title says I cant get my Nvidia updates to install. I keep getting an error saying: 

 

NVIDIA Installer can not continue 

A system restart is required. restart the system and try again. 

 

No matter how many time i restart, this happens. This error happens at the very start of the installer at the system check.

Do a registry sweep with CCleaner and delete something called NVIDIA_RebootNeeded. This entry might be in your startup try typing msconfig by hitting windows+r and typing this in and go to startup to see if a similar entry is there: http://www.eightforums.com/graphic-cards/18902-nvidia-installer-issue.html

Download the driver from the official website, run the file, make sure you click "custom install", and check "prepare clean install". That should fix your problem.
