Assassin-SL

Not necessarily. Unfortunately my trials on Windows 10 ended miserably... Using the Nvidia installer always gave me the same error as Assassin, while trying to install the driver manually from Device Manager, activated my 980 for 5-10 minutes and then it would "magically" switch back to Basic Display Adapter.

Reverting to Win8.1 completely solved these issues for me. Aside from the inf mod, it's practically plug and play for me.

@nick81 You are right, I did try it with driver signature enforcement disabled, but I still kept getting the error message. Good to know reverting back to 8.1 will solve the issue

@J95 Hello, I recently upgraded to Windows 10 to try it out. I've been trying to install the modded drivers but keep getting the following error. I followed the same method I used to install the NVidia drivers in Windows 8.1 and can't figure out why I'm getting this error now. I would also like to mention that my Windows 10 upgrade procedure had some minor issues. Instead of directly upgrading to windows 10 from 8.1, I reset my laptop to factory settings which is Windows 8. Then upgraded to 8.1 and then to Windows 10. Also after upgrading to Windows 10, I installed a new SSD and cloned my old HDD and tried to boot from SSD therefore I had to mess around with BIOS settings. It worked but booting from the SSD kept flickering my display at desktop continuously, so I removed SSD, returned to my old HDD and reset Bios. So I don't if any of that is causing this error and any help would be appreciated.
