Lenovo, running Windows 10 Home, using a Geforce MX230 graphics card on driver version 430.81.  Premiere Pro is saying this is incompatible, but Nvidia has no SD drivers to update to.

 

Has anyone solved this problem?  Please advise.  Thank you!

There is absolutely no Studio Driver at all whatsoever for any of the low-end Nvidia GPUs. That GPU is based on a GP108 GPU that is not supported at all in any of the Studio Drivers. For Pascal a 128-bit memory bus or better is required in order to use the Studio Drivers. But the GP108 is limited in hardware to only a 64-bit memory bus.

 

You will have to use the Game Ready driver for that MX230. However, do not use any driver version above 442.xx as there is absolutely no Quadro driver whatsoever in the 445-series branch, and that the Studio Driver is the GeForce-compatible equivalent to the Quadro drivers. And the 445.xx series drivers have known issues with content-greation apps. Right now the driver version must be between 430.86 and 442.92, inclusively, in order to be compatible with Premiere Pro. Your currently installed driver version is too old for Premiere Pro.

Hello, I bought a Dell with an MX230 and was hoping to run Premiere Pro. I have looked up the drivers you mention above at Nvidia and there is nothing between 442.74 and 445.87 in game ready drivers. The 442.92 is only available as a a studio driver. I am a little confused as to what to use since you said to use only a game ready driver. I haven't received the computer yet and am thinking about returning it. Do you have any advice about this machine being capable of running  PPro 2020? https://www.bestbuy.com/site/dell-inspiron-15-6-touch-screen-laptop-intel-core-i7-16gb-memory-512gb-ssd-silver/6381716.p?skuId=6381716
