    W7 unable to confirm Driver Signing for video card

    I don't believe this is exclusive a nVidia card issue, it just happens to to apply here.


    Running W7 Pro x64, I do have those two SHA-2' KB patches installed, but when I try to install nVidia drivers using DM (no need for that bloated Ctl Panel and all the fluff), the installation goes fine, but on re-boot, DM has a yellow flag with a Driver signing error.


    I did some research with 3 methods to disable driver signing, but 2 of the three didn't work (Command Prompt & Group Policy). The 3rd has to do with using WinRE which I've never done before (or had to). This involves forcing power off re-boots 3 times.

    I also have read that holding F8 during booting does the same thing (I believe).


    Anyone have any input of this??
    When not in use, turn off the juice.
    Think of someone else instead of just yourself. There is far more to it than your utility bill.

    which graphics card? is your windows patched with the later bundle kbs? Some of those messed with file signing defaults in win7.

    I always just used the default driver and did a custom install to be very selective about what it put on. Worked fine.
