thanks for the help
First of all, the latest drivers for your card are here. If you didn't download them from that site, I suggest redownloading from the link I posted.
Go to Start–>Search type in gpedit.msc
Next, go to Computer Configuration->Administrative Templates->System->Device Installation. Click on the subfolder Device Installation on the left and on the right side you will see the possible restrictions.
Right Click on Prevent Installation of Devices not described by other policy settings and edit this option, set it on ENABLED.
Uninstall the gfx card driver, reboot windows. Then install the updated drivers.
After you've done that you can set the Device Installation back to what it was.

Guru3D - Driver Sweeper
Get Driver Sweeper and run that to remove all remnants of the old drivers. When you restart you should see Windows in 16 bit color and a 600x480 resolution. From there install the latest drivers from the nVidia site for your version of Win7.
