xxbassplayerxx Posted August 11, 2013 Posted August 11, 2013 Is there any way to use the newest Nvidia drivers without connecting to the internet? Quote
crustytheclown Posted August 11, 2013 Posted August 11, 2013 Install net.framework 4.5 first i think and you're good to go Quote
K404 Posted August 11, 2013 Posted August 11, 2013 For Windows 7, that fixes it but that won't work for XP Quote
der8auer Posted August 11, 2013 Posted August 11, 2013 It worked for me. Installed Framework 3.5 and 4.0 Not sure which one fixed it. Quote
jjjc Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 I extract driver to a folder I know and point the gpu to the extracted folder with device manager and it installs. Driver and control panel only though. Quote
xxbassplayerxx Posted August 12, 2013 Author Posted August 12, 2013 Cool! I'll give those a try Quote
crustytheclown Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 since net.framework 4 is the newest for xp that will do it... Quote
K404 Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 I just tried .net4.0 + XP-32 + 320.18 (again) and it doesn't work. Maybe my XP has had too much stripped out of it? Quote
Mr.Scott Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 I just tried .net4.0 + XP-32 + 320.18 (again) and it doesn't work. Maybe my XP has had too much stripped out of it? 320.49 installs fine on my super stripped XP32 OS with just .net 4.0. Might want to check the integrity of your downloaded file. Quote
K404 Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 (edited) I'll DL 320.49 and compare directly EDIT: Nope. Still get a "no internet connection" found. Ethernet is disabled in BIOS, no Ethernet drivers installed, obviously Edited August 12, 2013 by K404 Quote
rsnubje Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 I'll DL 320.49 and compare directly EDIT: Nope. Still get a "no internet connection" found. Ethernet is disabled in BIOS, no Ethernet drivers installed, obviously I would do as jjjc says, just extract the driver, install through device manager, point to the location to where you extracted it. You don't need the control panel when you have NvInspector Quote
K404 Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 .net3.5 didn't work but "unpack and point" did Thanks for the help guys! :D (I SWEAR that installing drivers was easier in the good ol days ) Quote
rsnubje Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 Just figured 326.41 Beta doesnt ask for network Quote
K404 Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 This is an off-topic thing to ask.....but if we're messing around with drivers in XP.... does anyone feel like comparing 320.49 to 314.21? I found 320.49 to be a LOT worse with Kepler-6. The difference is so big, it feels like I missed something.... but I don't think I did Quote
