Unable to update Nvidia GTX 1070 drivers w/ GA
I recently purchased Battlefront II and was looking forward to playing my 10 hour trial. As I went to run it, I got a message that my drivers are out of date. I tried to use the GeForce Experience program to update as usual, and it wouldn't update, saying that the driver blocks all updates on the external graphics amplifier. I tried going through the drivers and downloads area for dell support, and it doesn't list my graphics card (GTX 1070). I have already updated the BIOS and the GA through the drivers and download section, but I am really hoping someone might know how I can get my 1070 drivers updated so I can play the games. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

Hi Bandio and DELL-Chris M,
New 388.31 drivers were just released for Battlefront II (Game Ready Drivers), and these installed! This are the first versions I have been able to install since 385.41. Note, the new ones are 388.31 with a release date of 15 Nov 2017. The earlier 388.13 release will NOT work. Good luck!

For our users to assist, they need more data. To what specific Dell Alienware computer is the AGA (Alienware Graphics Amplifier) attached?

I have the same problem with AGA-GTX 1080 & Alienware 17 R3, i cant install the drivers with the AGA plugged in. Even though i install the drivers w/o the AGA plugged in, it doesnt recognize them when i replug it.

Thank you so very much for this information. I was able to go through the GeForce Experience application and download the 388.31 drivers and get Battlefront II to launch.
