REMEMBER: to make it work you must have at least 4-th generation Intel Core CPU with integrated video. Also you must certainly enable iGPU at BIOS (32-64 MB will be enough). And I don't know the way how to start OpenGL games on these mining cards.

Some BIOS require additional configurating.

Now follow these steps:

  1. Download 417.22 NVIDIA driver (without installing it): https://www.guru3d.com/files-get/geforce-417-22-whql-driver-download,1.html I guess this one is the latest, where NVIDIA didn't disable the FEATURE.
  2. Right click on it and Extract all to some dir using any archive manager (7zip for example). Let's call this dir YOUR_EXTRACTED_DRIVER_DIR
  3. Open nv_dispi.inf from YOUR_EXTRACTED_DRIVER_DIR/Display.Driver
  4. Find and "replace all" strings exactly "= Section110," with exactly "= Section108,"
  5. Also replace "= Section109," with "= Section107," Yes, these strings start with equals sign followed by space (= ) and end with comma (,)

Additional required steps:

  1. Disable automatic driver updates: regedit -> Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\DriverSearching -> SearchOrderConfig = 0
  2. Also check Your computer -> Properties -> Advanced system settings -> Hardware -> Device Installation settings -> No (your device might not work as expected) must be set
  3. Enable testsinging -> run cmd or powershell (by admin) -> enter the command bcdedit /set testsigning on. You will see something like The operation completed successfully.
  4. Uninstall existing NVIDIA drivers using DDU (google: display driver uninstaller) with reboot
  5. After reboot complete - Run the driver installer from YOUR_EXTRACTED_DRIVER_DIR -> setup.exe
  6. Disable Geforce experience, click Next, Yes or whatever, choose Custom install and Make clean installation, wait for the prompt and confirm you want install this driver anyway. Wait until it finishes.
  7. Disable testsigning -> run cmd or powershell (by admin) -> enter the command bcdedit /set testsigning off. You will see something like The operation completed successfully.
  8. Reboot
  9. Go to Display settings -> Graphics settings -> Choose your DirectX game -> Set High performance NVIDIA P106-100
  10. Enjoy your DirectX games
