Error in premiere pro

[ankur_tailor6207]

I’ve installed Premiere Pro 2025, but I’m getting an error saying: 'Unsupported video driver – NVIDIA GeForce GT 730'. How can I fix this issue? Is the GT 730 no longer supported in the 2025 version?

You can't fix this.

card is too old.

Before you buy a new card you might want to go to https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gpu-hierarchy,4388.html

It's not only Adobe. It's Nvidia as well. You see, the GT 730 came in two different GPU architecture generations, one that dated all the way back to 2010 while the other was only slightly newer (from 2013). Nvidia is no longer updating drivers for either version of the GT 730: Driver support for the first flavor ended all the way back in 2018 while that of the latter effectively ended in 2021 outside of mere security patches. The last driver version for the earlier architecture version of the GT 730 was driver version 391.35, released in March 2018,  while the last driver version for the later one was version 475.14, released on July 9, 2024. Premiere Pro 25.2 or higher requires a driver version higher than version 560.94 just to be compatible at all. Unfortunately, that driver version or any other newer version is completely incompatible with your GT 730.

And even if your GPU were supported, if the installed Nvidia driver version is below the minimum required version number, Premiere Pro will be "locked" to software-only rendering, and you will continue to receive compatibility warnings. And in the future, if you have unsupported GPU hardware, and a new version of Premiere Pro gets released, that app will be flagged on your old-GPU-equipped system as "not compatible" and will refuse to even install or update at all.

And I mostly echo John: Before you buy a new GPU, we want to know the specs of the rest of your PC – CPU, RAM, internal disks (SSD, HDD). In other words, if your PC is equally as old as that GPU, and you have a lower-end CPU of its vintage, then you might as well save up for an entirely new PC build since any worthwhile upgrades to such an old PC would be a lot more expensive than what that PC is worth.
