I did some shit with Windows; basically reinstalled Windows on the same drive, so old one got moved to C:\Windows.OLD then deleted new Windows dirs and moved back old dirs to C:\. It worked, old Windows works "fine". But can't install fucking nVidia driver.

This is what I get in logs:

LOG.DBInstaller.exe.log:

 Spoiler:
 


LOG.DrvInst.exe.log

 Spoiler:
 


LOG.setup.exe.log

 Spoiler:
 




Ran the installer as the System user (with SysInternals -s) but that didn't help either.

which part of the installer fails? if you got the installer to start and haven't tried to do a clean install (it works now, i know) i'm gonna slap you...

[edit] why are you trying to salvage an old installation of your OS anyway? just copy your good porn to DVDs and wipe the drive like sane people do Smile [/edit]

Yeah, cleaned with DriverSweeper. Clean install also. The part where it installs graphic driver fails.

Doesn't matter why. Smile The problem is I don't want a new install at this time.

My instinct would be that permissions from the old windows install are still stored on the disk. (Access control list).

I have never done this myself, but quick googling found that you can try to clear the ACL with: icacls * /T /Q /C /RESET

I have. I had a hardware issue (due to dirt in video card) and when PC would boot, monitor would go into sleep mode. Uninstallign drivers would help, but if I install again, it worked. So late (04:00 AM) last night I reinstalled Windows thinking that would solve it. When it didn't, I took the card out and did the right thing. Then it worked with the Windows Update provided driver. Only there was small issue you see, I installed a x86 version of Windows Laughing
So either way I had to reinstall, and figured I'd just go back to my old install. Rolling Eyes

Hardware was fine, just some dust. It looked like software issue because with "Default VGA" driver, everything worked, but with nV software it would not display image.

maybe if you want fireworks, if it's that bad and you still want to fight the inevitable try some 99% rubbing alcohol, but NOTHING below 90% and frankly even 90% is a risk i won't take.

i guess on second read you didn't specifically say you fucked it up cleaning it, but.... well you did take the dust out, right?

i'm honestly thinking you blew the dust out of the card to somewhere loose in the case and now it's got itself a nice home in your PCI-e slot where you moved it when you reseated the card.

or wait, it stopped misbehaving entirely after the reinstall? ohhh... that might make more sense then but it sounded like you were reinstalling everytime it stopped working and just happened to pick x86 this time instead of permanently solving it.

at any rate though:

from what it sounds like you're reinstalling the OS every few hours already, just do it properly and be done with it, it's a lot less of a PITA.

hell aren't there tools that can split free space left on a drive to a new partition anyway?

After cleaning, everything works - but Windows was fucked from restoring it from Windows.old. FYI, that Windows install is from 2009, so in total I installed twice the last two years. I fucked up yesterday by installing x86 because it was late and i picked the wrong dir.
