Problem picking drivers for the graphics card for Macbook Pro Problem picking drivers for the graphics card for Macbook Pro

So I'm having a problem picking drivers for the graphics card for Macbook Pro when in Bootcamp. I am running Windows 7 on a 15" Macbook Pro Retina from last year. The graphics card is a GeForce GT 650M.

I few month back I mistakenly installed new graphics drivers since I had some issues with my screen resolution. I since solved the issue with the screen resolution, but the new drivers were probably the wrong ones and the brought me a new problem. My computer works fine until I let the computer go into standby mode and the screen shuts down. When I then try to start it I get the blue screen and a error message regarding the my NVIDIA drivers. Can someone please tell me what drivers I should install? I have googled it myself, but clearly I did not do a very good job first time around.

Thanks,

Right, the thing is I went there last time and I got the wrong ones. Since I'm running Bootcamp I suspect they might have special drivers which are intended for Apple products.

There are incorrect drivers and correct drivers. There is no such thing as "special' drivers.

You have the name of your video card. You have the website that has the drivers you need. I don't know how you can screw it up.

is yours a 2011 macbook pro? because thousands of 2011 macbook pro GPUs are failing and causing blue screens and glitches. its reportedly due to degradation of the soldering paste used.

No, it's a Macbook Pro Retina 15" from 2013.
