Guys wanna ask, what's the difference between our local set of y400 and us set y400. It seems like us set got better specs. If US set, will there be any problem if I wanna claim warranty later? Or should I just buy the local Malaysia set?

guys I just bought my y400, free dos.

When i got back home, I tried to install my ehem2 windows 7, and once i finished install it, i put the drivers cd to install the drivers for my laptop hardware. Unfortunately when it comes to VGA, i cannot install the nvidia GPU. It kept saying "Install Cannot Continue: This graphics driver could not find compatible graphics hardware." I kept trying for few times and its still the same, which I cant install my GT750M. Did anyone experience the same problem as me? Please help. Im very dissapointing now. Is it because my set is defect or something? Or this GT750M only compatible Windows 8? Please help me guys.

I already installed Windows 8. But it is still the same, i can't install the Nvidia driver. It says Nvidia installer cannot continue, this graphics driver could not find compatible graphics hardware. Please help me. I don't know what else to do. :-(

Hi.

I have a question to ask, need your advise since you guys are Lenovo Y400 users.

I just bought Lenovo Y400. I'm facing a problem with the graphic card Nvidia GT750m installation. The drivers cd that is provided with the set doesn't seems to help with the installation of the GPU. Everytime I try to install the driver of Nvidia, it says Nvidia installer cannot continue, this graphics driver could not find compatible graphics hardware. I tried to find the driver at Nvidia website and even Lenovo website, but still cant find any of GT750m driver. Please advise me on how to handle this issue. Its a very dissapointing coz I cannot fully utilize my laptop performance.

Thanks in advance. notworthy.gif

If I'm not mistaken, GT750M doesn't have official driver right now... So you are left with no options except the one included in the CD... the driver probably a modified version by Lenovo for early support... so, all you can do is either wait for the official driver by nVidia, or change the OS to the compatible version...

When i install windows 8, i face the same problem as you when i install the gt750 driver from drivers cd "Nvidia installer cannot continue, this graphics driver could not find compatible graphics hardware". But after that, i tried to download the gt750 driver from Lenovo Support under VIDEO section then download the NVDIA driver. And now it works fine for me without any issues. Btw, im currently using windows 7 with gt750 driver that download from lenovo site installed and using it without any issues. Hope this will help you. smile.gif

Thank you so much for the reply. I managed to fix it by downloading the drivers from Lenovo websites. Now my lappy works like a charm. smile.gif
