why not use nvcleanstall it has option to add your card with only a few clicks.

Its sometimes has bugs, its write it but the game is glitching, or with one game is working and the other is not, dont know why, I dont like nvclean install.

what laptop you have ? 

You only need to mod 1 inf file and 3or 4 rows 

For Dell/Alienware - nvdmig.inf

Clevo - nvcvig

Msi - nvmiig

Then go for the bottom and pick one of the GTX 1060 listings 

Example : 

original NVIDIA_DEV.1C60.07C2.1028 = "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060"

your modded will be NVIDIA_DEV.1C60.0551.1028 = "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060"

Then search for 07C2 with 1C60 like:

original : %NVIDIA_DEV.1C60.07C2.1028% = Section164, PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1C60&SUBSYS_07C21028 

your modded will be %NVIDIA_DEV.1C60.0551.1028% = Section164, PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1C60&SUBSYS_05511028 

everywhere you find 1C20.0771 repalce with 1C20.0551 thats simple

If you are done with editing the inf file, restart the laptop in driver signature enforcment off and istall the driver. But drop me a dm what driver version you want to install and i will edit for you .

Mine is the Alienware m17x r4.

 

The relevant lines are:

NVIDIA_DEV.1B83 = "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB"

NVIDIA_DEV.1C03 = "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB"

NVIDIA_DEV.1C06 = "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB"

%NVIDIA_DEV.1B83%           = Section048, PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1B83

%NVIDIA_DEV.1C03%           = Section048, PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1C03

%NVIDIA_DEV.1C06%           = Section048, PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1C06

 

I understand that I need to change to:

 

NVIDIA_DEV.1C60 = "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB"

NVIDIA_DEV.1C60 = "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB"

NVIDIA_DEV.1C60 = "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB"

%NVIDIA_DEV.1C60%           = Section048, PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1C60

%NVIDIA_DEV.1C60%           = Section048, PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1C60

%NVIDIA_DEV.1C60%           = Section048, PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1C60

 

Is that correct?

 

Thanks!

Pick only one row from this : NVIDIA_DEV.1B83 = "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB"

and edit to this :NVIDIA_DEV.1C60 = "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB"

and from this: %NVIDIA_DEV.1B83%           = Section048, PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1B83

to this :%NVIDIA_DEV.1C60%           = Section048, PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1C60

The other 1060 rows can keep to stock it has no effect. No need to edit all 1060 just pick one replace it.

But other than that its okay. I allways edit the closest one to the original like in your case 1C06 ---> 1C60
