What to Do When Driver Installation Fails[/h2][p]
If driver installation fails, there may be several factors contributing to the issue.
First, your antivirus software or other security software may be interfering with the installation. Try disabling this software before installing the driver, and enabling it again afterwards.
Existing drivers or software may also be interfering. Try uninstalling old drivers before attempting to reinstall the latest version.
If the problem persists, we recommend trying a clean installation of your graphics card driver. Leftover driver DLL files or game profiles in your system could be causing problems, so a clean install will eliminate these.
Many users opt for a third-party program called Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) to perform a clean installation of their graphics board drivers, which completely removes components that were part of the original driver installation package.
