I've been trying to install the nVidia GeForce 840m (mobile) driver and it is not working as expected. I typically will launch driver installation from an exe that is in the Startup folder. The drivers will fail to install in this way. All other nVidia mobile drivers work fine on other system. If I manually run the installation or run it via CMD, it works.

Windows 7 Pro SP1 x64 in Audit Mode.

I have tried the following launch methods:

RunWait (@ComSpec & " /c c:\temp\g840m\64\setup.exe -s -i -noreboot -noeula")RunWait (@ComSpec & " /c c:\temp\g840m\64\setup.exe -s -i -noreboot -noeula", "c:\temp\g840m\64")
The second one is a newer implementation that sets the working directory. 700 series and older did not need it, but the driver for the 860m requires it to be able to install. Using either of those commands results in the software not installing and the following errors.

It seems to me that the error is coming from DISM. :unsure:

If I run using nVidia's debug log as:

RunWait (@ComSpec & " /c c:\temp\g840m\64\setup.exe -s -i -noreboot -noeula -log:" & Chr(34) & "C:\NVlog" & Chr(34) & " -loglevel:6", "c:\temp\g840m\64")
I have this error:

So it says it can't read the file. I searched for this problem online but no similar circumstance was available.

Any ideas?

I have gotten it to install now. There are multiple versions (I guess) of this 840m driver I had to try. The one I was using in the above post was labelled as Win7/8.1 driver v332.38 and I had another one that just said Windows 7 with the same version.

Apparently, there is a driver signature issue in the one for Win8.1 that was causing rundll32.exe to balk at trying to install the INF and causing the installation to fail. Using the one for Win7 has the same problem. The difference is that this one opens a prompt to install an unsigned driver, which I've encountered before with touchpad software.
