  1. @utopian201 I'm in a bit of a pickle... To start off, here's the specs _ Acer Laptop w/ Intel N2840 + GTX 950 w/ EXP BEAST adapter + Windows 10 I firstly CAN get an image on an external monitor through my eGPU connection. My device manager will initially have 'Intel HD' and 'Microsoft Basic Adapter' in the Display drop-down. The only way to get it to recognize and say 'GTX 950' is if I install an Nvidia driver. Going off of your format, I got my card's Hardware ID (which is A:1402, B:1402, C:10DE) and put it in place accordingly. So essentially I have the correct lines commented out (;) in my nv_dispi.inf file ... and in my nvami.inf file I've added lines, NVIDIA_DEV.1402.1402.10DE = "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950" under the ' NVIDIA_A = "NVIDIA" ' under the 'Strings' section. and %NVIDIA_DEV.1402.1402.10DE% = Section001, PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1402&SUBSYS_140210DE in the [NVIDIA_Devices.NTamd64.10.0] section. *The first Section I had that had NVSupportOptimus = 1 was also Section001... so I used that. I'll delete all current drivers and disable driver signature enforcement and try to apply the modified driver... Though after initiating the setup.exe, it loads to the point of an error saying something along the lines of 'cannot find hardware to apply this driver to'... or something like that. I though that was because it was displaying 'Microsoft Basic Adapter'. I then tried to download an unmodified driver so it'd display the card name 'GTX 950' in the display section of the manager and THEN try to run the modified driver again - choosing the 'delete previous drivers' option _ same result. The modified driver states that it cannot find a GPU to apply it to. An unmodified driver will find it and execute fine... just not the modified one. What do you think I'm doing wrong. Please ask any questions you have, I'd have no problem going back over everything that I've set up step-by-step. Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated!
