Is there a way to simply replace the default NVidia graphics driver installed with Windows 10, with an older version, and prevent Windows 10 from installing the updated one in the future?
I have a several years old laptop which is running well, an i7, 8GB Fujitsu with an SSD, and Windows 8.1 installed. However, the graphics card (NVidia GeForce GT 640M LE) only works properly with an older driver from 2015. A Windows upgrade to the driver in late 2015 made the OS unbootable, and the second time I gave in to the nagging Windows 10 upgrade created the same issue and made me have to reinstall Windows 8.1 from scratch.
NVidia page for newer GeForce driver versions also states that Fujitsu notebooks are not supported, and the last driver available for download on the Fujitsu page is also from 02/2015 (but also Windows 10 compatible).
But since our company licensing policy states that I should switch to Windows 10, I am wondering if there is a way to (easily) replace the driver included with the new Windows setup, or even better, switch it during the installation.
Is this possible?
