assuming you extracted to the default location you need to place the file under

C:\NVIDIA\DisplayDriver\314.07\Win8_WinVista_Win7_64\International\Display.Driver

Agree to overwrite when prompted.

So it worked for Windows 7 on my M4 C400 256GB but, I installed Windows 8 on an M4 C400 512GB with 040H firmware. I disabled the driver signing through cmd and the Graphics Installation still fails. Is there a step I'm missing? Its a clean OS with no drivers, are there drivers I need to install prior to installing the graphics driver?

Running fluidmark and the GPU load for GPU 2 is stuck at 0%. Tried setting the physx in the NVIDIA control panel to GPU 2 but I get the same issue. GPU 1 is stuck at 99% GPU load.

Probably because you haven't activated SLI yet in the nvidia control panel or the program is running in windowed mode. Check both.
