Need (legacy?) Drivers for NVIDIA GeForce GT 710

I've searched the forums for GeForce GT 710 but haven't found anything related, odd, everyone with Windows 7 have this card working properly? Mine had the yellow! alert in device management with the message Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device. A recent hardware or software change might have installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged, or that might be malicious software from an unknown source. (Code 52)

Have Win7 64b, I have installed several nVidia drivers, tried several builds, I can tell from memory they were something like 34x.xx, 28x.xx, because I'm afraid the HDD they were kept on started acting up after 50000 hours of use. They can be installed but they didn't "interact" with the GPU so to speak, this is the best explanation I can provide.

I have dual-boot Win10 where the drivers are installed properly, with Dx12, (Can provide Dxdiag.txt if neccecary) but none of what I've tried have work in Win7.
I still prefer to work/play on Win7 and would appreciate any help including a point towards a more relevant sub, or a simple no for any reason you might provide. Thank you!

I'm afraid it won't run after system compatibility check.

So the BiOS can tell it's GeForce GT 710, but doesn't seem like this OS does.

Ok, I have some updates, I've restarted into "no driver signatures" and the system resolution is larger, a video game that previously wouldn't work now works, so the error message was correct, there was a previous video driver signed incorrectly, I'll work on removing it while it's not loaded and reinstall.

currently there's no alert for errors image.png

Ok so after removing old drivers the GPU appears as "Other Devices", video games do not work now.

But nvidia still won't run

391.35 doesn't run either.

Ok, so, finishing here, I'm left with the following conclusions:

a driver signed incorrectly was removed

a driver compatible does exist, because Factorio did run once while
restarting into "no driver signatures"

none of the
345.20, 391.35, or on-board system update VGA drivers fit.

I'm digging through the logs in setupapi.dev.log , seeing the previous two GPUs I've had prior to this one, and other non-related devices, trying to distill any driver info but not really able to understand any info about it.

Ok, final update, on-board system update VGA drivers fit, games work, screen saver work, f.lux work. I guess I can live with that. I hope future legacy HW troubleshooters or AI could benefit from this blogging-thread. Peace.
