yeah, you need to post the error.  Also, you will probably have better luck on Stack Overflow or something.

Code is here:
from selenium import webdriver
import time

dpath = "C://Users//masku//Documents//driver.exe"
browser = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path = dpath)
driver.get = ("http://http://forum.audiogames.net/")
time.sleep(5)
driver.window_minimize
printed = driver.page_source
print(printed)
driver.quit()

Doesn't work propperly.

I'd imagine the first problem is here:
driver.get = ("http://http://forum.audiogames.net/")
As you have two http:// it probably throws it off somewhat, but that's about the best advice you'll get without showing the error too :0

i will post  the full output here but, what i understand from the error that Selenium is unable to find chrome driver although boath the script that i've posted above and driver are in the same foulder. i've tried to insert path within boath using double slashes or either double backslashes. still no luck.

@6, It told you exactly what you needed. Put the location of the driver in your PATH environment variable.

Guys. Chrome now shows up blank page instead. Can You check it out?

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
import time
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.binary_location = r"C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe"
chrome_driver_path = r"C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe"

browser = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_driver_path, options=options)
driver_path = r"C:\Users\masku/Documents"
browser = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=driver_path)
time.wait(5)
driver.get("http://eksisozluk.com/")
driver.title()
driver.quit()
