About two years ago, I upgraded from the 660M to the 680M. Install and new driver install went smooth as could be since no bios update was needed. I chose the driver 310.90. Now, I'm trying to upgrade to the newest driver 358.91 and all hell breaks loose. The screen is constantly blinking on/off after installing the driver, no matter how I do the install - all in safe mode. Even after reverting back to 310.90, the screen still blinks after booting to the desktop. Driver install fails when I Fn-F7 to the dedicated card as well.
Please correct me if I'm wrong, but the procedure for uninstall/reinstall is:
- uninstall nvidia driver > reboot
- uninstall intel driver > reboot
- safe mode > install intel driver > reboot
- boot into desktop > Fn-F7 > reboot
- safe mode > install nvidia driver > reboot
That doesn't work anymore now. I've tried installing the laptopvideo2go 310.90 drivers with the modified nvwi.ini file to no avail. Copy&pasted the .ini file internals as drag&drop did not replace the file.
I read from j95's posts that the nvdm.ini needs to be modified instead.
- Do I need to replace the original nvdm.ini file with the modified nvwi.ini file?
- Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Hi J95,
Thanks for providing the details on modifying the .ini file. The problem I'm having is that the screen constantly blinking like a strobe light after the install and rebooting to the desktop.

However, I am trying to install the 310.90 mobile driver from nvidia's website and there is no file that is "nvdmi.ini" in the "Display.Driver" folder.
There's just a "nvdm.ini" file. Also, all the codes that I need to change are all there; seems I don't need to change anything.
What am I doing wrong / not doing that is causing the screen blinking after driver install?
