    Video Card driver keeps missing

    well here is the issue:

    computer : Asus g53sx - a1
    The video card is an nvdia gtx 560M
    i use windows 7 64-bit

    the problem is.. the notebook keeps loosing the driver for this card. I turn the computer off and when i turn it on again the resolution is set to 800x600 and i can't find my VGA not even in the device manager. The notebook came with a cd that has the driver so i use it and install the driver (now it doesn't work). after rebooting it comes back to the original 1920x1280 resolution... but then it begins again... i turn it off... and quen on... back to the beginning. Now, when i try to install the driver from the cd it fails...

    I used the resolution as an example but all the features of the card are disabled ...
    for example gaming or using any 3d animation program, because the onboard card cannot stand this activities.

    any experience with this? any sugentions? any guess?

    thank you

    Go to Nvidia website and download the latest driver version of that card for your laptop.

    Drivers - Download NVIDIA Drivers

    Make sure that the GPU is fully and firmly seated all the way into the PCIe slot.

    I don't know why it might be losing the driver, but is there anything in the bios regarding what type of video it is supposed to start up with?

    about the BIOS stuff... didn't find anything regarding what type of video it is supposed to start up with... about the gpu position... well i never touched it... and it's inside the notebook so... it was supposed to be well settled. i'll give it a try

    my notebook is an ASUS G53SX-A1 Made 08/2011 and the video card is an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560M
