Winbuilder is a single file. Program Files Windows AIK if you're using the WAIK). I'm not sure if there would be driver issues with it.

Note: Before proceeding with the installation, verify the driver you downloaded supports your graphics card.

Once you have verified your graphics card is compatible with the driver you have downloaded, please close all open programs. If you have an anti-virus program or other system monitoring utility running in the background, please disable these temporarily as they may interfere with the installation of your display driver.

1. Verify you are logged in with an account that has Administrative Priviliges.

If you are logged in as a Guest or Standard User, Windows will not permit you to install the driver.

1. Download the latest NVIDIA display driver from the NVIDIA Download Drivers page.
2. If your browser asks you if you wish to Save or Run the file, select Save.

Selecting Run will save the file to a temporary directory. If a file is saved to a temporary directory, it is possible Windows may delete the file while you are installing the driver which will result in a bad install. Instead, save the driver to your Windows desktop.
