Which Visualize video driver to use?

Bill Toft Feb 24, 2016 5:28 PM

I have a laptop with NVIDIA Quadro K3100M video card. My current driver is the one SolidWorks 2016 recommends for Win 7 (354.42).

But I see people recommending 354.56 as the best driver for Visualize.

Where do I get it? I tried NVIDIA's web site but no luck.

Will the SolidWorks driver web page be updated to list the Visualize drivers?

Thanks.

Hi Bill,

You are correct that the recommended NVIDIA graphics driver for Visualize is 354.56. It can be downloaded via the link below:
NVIDIA DRIVERS Quadro Desktop/Quadro Notebook Driver Release 352 WHQL

SOLIDWORKS is in the process of updating their driver hardware specs page with this newer recommended NVIDIA driver.

Thanks,
Brian
