1050ti Issues

[Will_172]

I recently purchased my 1050ti and I installed it today, with the old version - which runs perfectly normal, and I don't mind.

I decided to upgrade my version, so I visited the Nvidia website, and selected 416.94 and downloaded and rebooted my PC, it restricted my resolution to 1600x1200, and it also had a error in the device manager - and it didn't work? Now I am pretty disappointed about this and any help as to why this error has happened would be really appreciated, here's my PC specs 

AMD A8-7650K
16GB DDR3 Ram
Nvidia 1050ti
MSI Grenade Motherboard

did you use DDU to remove the old drivers first?

And I forgot to mention, I play some games such as Farming Simulator 19, or Gold Rush and my game seems to crash when my graphics are set at high and usually any other games but Farming Simulator crash, and Farming Simulator crashes when graphics at put to high.

No, I didn't

I used to have a onboard GPU until I installed the 1050ti.

I think it might be causing issues, it was an onboard AMD R7 graphics card

yup, you need to use DDU to get rid of old drivers first.

 

better remove both AMD and Nvidia graphics drivers for now, then reinstall it.

okay, so i woke up this morning and want to wipe my old drivers.
please could anyone give me instructions?
i have a disk that goes into the pc disk tray and it loads the nvidia installer software, and it gives me a old driver, so once i wiped the amd and nvidia driver would i run that, get the old driver then go to their website, update the nvidia driver but what would i do with the driver that came from the disk installer? would i delete it?

First download the latest driver from Nvidia's site and save to desktop for later use.

 

Download DDU: https://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html

 

Disconnect WiFI/Ethernet so Windows doesn't connect to the web and download a driver you don't want.

 

Restart Windows into safe mode and run DDU, use clean and restart option.

 

Once back into Windows install Nvidia's drivers.  I would use latest from the site and not the disc you have.

Thanks for your help but I have ran into another issue - my 1050ti now has error 43 - and I believe it is not selected as the GPU for my computer, Windows might have overwritten it? Please help
