I also used Nvidia's driver cleanup tool as well as external providers who remove the drivers without leaving any residue. I also tried to install the oldest one listed by Nvidia. These include the officially listed version 537.13 from Asus and the latest from Nvidia 546.17. !!! dvi: Installation of device is blocked by policy! !!! pol: Restricted Hardware or Compatible ID: HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_10DE&DEV_00A3&SUBSYS_10438932 !!! pol: The device is explicitly restricted by the following policy settings: The log file v states that the installation is blocked due to a policy. After I assembled my new PC and wanted to install the Nvidia graphics driver, I noticed that the installation unfortunately kept failing at the 'HD audio' point. I recently purchased an Asus ROG Strix RTX4090 OC.
