Asked by Darrell Taylor

I asked a question yesterday and today got a notification of a reply but I can't find the thread or where the question was posted except I think it was in Foss community. Maybe you can help, I want to know how to install ASUS GPU drivers and tweaks from windows 8 [I have a disc] on ubuntu 18.04 soon to be 20.04 Thank you

The OS is completely different so your Windows drivers will not work in Ubuntu. What video chip are you using please?

 Hi thanks for the quick response. Its an "ASUS Nvidia Geforce GT 640" a graphics card. I'm running 3 monitors off it, I would like to use the display settings on it and other tweaks Ubuntu software has only 2 display scale settings 100% and 200% and when you change them on one screen it changes on all of them and they are different these settings don't change on 20.04

You can use the additional drivers application to install Nvidia drivers. I assume your CPU doesn't have a GPU built in or you will need Optimus to support it.
