Before three weeks ago, I connected my two laptops via network sharing (but it didn't work) . After that my laptop (ASUS X52J with nVidia GeForce 310M) did not respond, it restarted. But with some errors. After that my laptop didn't detect nVidia card (detected only Intel graphic card). I uninstalled my drivers and tried to installed. But it occurred error..

"This graphic driver could not find compatible graphic hardware"

And Device manager also didn't detect the nVidia adapter..what should i do now..Please Help

    Fixed it!! Updated the BIOS, as stated earlier.

    My laptop is maybe 2 months old, so I didn't think i'd have to update the BIOS already, but I was wrong.

    Ahhhh

    Hye

    Would you explain how you restore default BIOS. ? because I'm struggling with the same issue !!!

    Hi..

    Did you already find the solution of this problem?

    Because I'm currently facing same problem like you did. I already reinstall the Nvidia drivers but my laptop cannot detect the Nvidia hardware. I also have tried many kind of method that I found but still didn't work :( Its been a year since this problem happening. Please tell me if you already know the solution.

    I'm using ASUS K55V, windows 10, Nvidia GeForce 610m

    I have the same problem with my new GeForce GTX 970 graphics card!

    I have a problem with removing the first card (Radeon) used during my build of this computer.

    In most cases it refers to GPU fault.

    On PC it is maybe insufficient power, unplugged power connector, not properly installed card or simply graphics card died. In rare cases is PCIe x16 connector damaged or PCIe bus leads to the slot is died. Or PSU damaged.

    On laptop it is very bad case: your GPU lying on the solder bolls, whose connects it to motherboard, and if you did not clean your laptop for the long time and your cooler is dust filled, laptop begins overheating, which cause the solder bolls to crackle and pop off from connections. Furthemore, there is actually two level of these solder bolls: one lying directly beneath GPU crystal and connects it to the chip substrate, and second level connects substrate to motherboard. and in most cases bolls crackle under crystal, which means your Nvidia GPU is effectively dead, since there is no way to resolder crystal to the substrate. In some cases you're lucky and the bolls crackled under substrate, which can be reflowed or resoldered. And, in some cases after overheating the motherboard begins to twist in some places, which can result in tearing the contact rounds for bolls under GPU on your motherboard. And in this case entire motherboard needs to be replaced, or you will live only with integrated GPU.

    P.S. I'm actually means b.a.l.l.s instead of bolls but stupid censor does not allow me to write techical details properly.
