NVIDIA Drivers Won't Install

[XxXxXXx_Evan_xXXxXxX]

I fried my GTX 550ti (yay) and got a new PNY GTX1050. There are some NVADIA drivers on it, but I can't get updated drivers. What do I do? 

my attempt with the driver downloaded off the internet (same results with GeForce Experience)

What GeForce Experience Says:

That is weird. The graphics driver hasn't anything to do with the graphics card. So the problem is somewhere on your PC I would guess. 

Do you have the newest version of the GeForce experience? Did you select new install or update? There's an option for that during installation. Maybe try to remove the older version first... or download the driver manually from GeForce.com/drivers

Use the custom installation instead of the express and make sure that you select "Perform a clean install" when asked, here is a link to another post with an image to assist you @XxXxXXx_Evan_xXXxXxX

I'm back to square 1 again with windows drivers.

Uninstall the GeForce Experience (using Windows "Programs and Features") and the go directly to the Nvidia website and download the driver directly to your machine.

Once that has finished downloading click on the executable *.exe file and run using administrator privileges.

 

 

You need to select the correct driver for your setup or use the "Auto-detect" feature.http://www.geforce.com/drivers

Ok, its been long sorry

 

I couldn't uninstall GeForce Experience and I ended up just installing ubuntu. I'm buying a new PC this year anyway because this one sucks

 

Ubuntu in my opinion is a sort of thing thats like if it works, it ain't stupid
