Am I missing something with uninstalling NVIDIA?

[Windows Central Question]

I do not need NVIDIA and I uninstalled the driver and program. My Windows 10 update information is still saying that I can't install it because of this program. Is there something I'm missing that still should be uninstalled??? I've deleted cookies and everything. HELP!

You dont have a graphics card in your computer?

I don't know--

Click Windows + R key to bring up the run dialog box, type "dxdiag" to bring up the Direct X properties window. From the display tab what's the graphics adapter?

Under Device and name it says: NVIDIA

okay, that didn't help. Can you go to control panel >> device manager >> under display adapters what name do you see? Also check under USB controllers if you see anything called chipset?

Ok, I followed your directions and see the name NVIDIA. I didn't see anything called "usb controllers" and also didn't see anything called chipset. Do you have any other thoughts? I appreciate your help!

Okay, so this is what I am trying to do.. get your motherboard model number. There is a program called Speccy. Download and install it. There is a motherboard section in the program, paste the details from there.

But chances are that you do have an NVIDIA card in your computer, and if you do, you do need to have the driver.

May be he is missing the latest driver and/or has a legacy NVIDIA chipset motherboard which needs updated drivers. Without knowing that it's hard to assist him.
