Latest Nvidia drivers on Windows won't install

[IveGotRoot 0]

I have recently upgraded my laptop(an M6800 firepro 6100) and replaced it with an GTX 980m. Nvidia says that the latest driver(461) supports my card but i can only install up to 388.13 Ive tried to mod it but i can't figure it out. I can run the latest linux driver tho

I am about to do this same swap myself.  I am replacing the K3100M in my M6800 with a GTX 980M 8GB.  I had to do all the driver mods for my M6600 GTX 680M swapsevreal times over the past 2 years and the current driver version running on the M6600 is 445.87.  If you want i can give you a copy of the newest drivers for the GTX 980m in a M6800 in a few weeks once i get mine all setup and know the drivers work.

Do you by chance still have those drivers for your 680m? I also had issues and was able to build and install 425.31.
