NVIDIA drivers not installing on Windows 10 Have just bought a new Dell Inspiron 5000 with NVIDIA GeForce 920M GPU. Laptop came with Windows 8 and free upgrade to Windows 10, so I upgraded first thing (on 11/09/15) to avoid familiarising with two new OS (old laptop was Windows 7).
Nvidia Geforce Drivers Windows 10
I had a compatibility issue message in the Get Windows 10 app caused by an NVIDIA driver for weeks. If you are facing the same problem, here is what I did to solve this.
Get Windows 10 app showed the message “Unfortunately, this PC is unable to run Windows 10“.

The display manufacturer hasn’t made your display compatible with Windows 10. Check with the manufacturer for support.
In order to solve this, you need to do a manual upgrade using the Microsoft Media Creation Tool. Here you can download this tool:
Then, follow the tool instructions to upgrade to Windows 10. In my case, I had no problems with the installer. If you get the Compatibility issue message here too, use the option to create an installation media and upgrade through a USB flash drive or an ISO file.
After the upgrade, you will need to install the latest NVIDIA driver. By default, Windows 10 uses Microsoft Basic Display Adapter.
Download the latest driver for GeForce 6 Series or GeForce 7 Series here:
Otherwise, search for your driver here: Download NVIDIA Drivers.
Install the NVIDIA driver and your done! If everything is fine, you should see your NVIDIA listed under Display adapters in Device Manager.
Some users executed the installer with the Troubleshoot compatibility option. In my case it was not necessary.
Leave a comment with the model of your NVIDIA GPU if this post helped you to upgrade to Windows 10! ?
