: The game crashes with TDR or the system crashes while running the game.Using Adaptive Vertical Sync while G-SYNC is enabled may result in random black screen.Games do not launch correctly on GeForce GTX 750 Ti when NVIDIA Image Scaling is enabled.: Black screen may be observed on some Optimus notebooks with 1440p/165hz panels when in discrete GPU mode.: The YouTube web site randomly displays extreme contrast/gamma while idle or during video playback.The hotfix addresses the following issue:
We’ll try it out and see if people like the idea and want us to continue.
#NVIDIA DRIVER DRIVERS#
These HotFix drivers represent a lot of additional work by our engineering teams, I hope they provide value for you. But we know that many of you are willing to try these out. The safest option is to wait for the next WHQL certified driver. The sole reason they exist is to get fixes out to you more quickly. They are run through a much abbreviated QA process. To be sure, these Hotfix drivers are beta, optional and provided as-is. These fixes (and many more) will be incorporated into the next official driver release, at which time the Hotfix driver will be taken down.
#NVIDIA DRIVER INSTALL#
The fixes that make it in are based in part on your feedback in the Driver Feedback threads and partly on how realistic it is for us to quickly address them. From the above output we can conclude that the current system has NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB graphic card installed and the recommend driver to install is nvidia-driver-440. These drivers are basically the same as the previous released version, with a small number of additional targeted fixes. The GeForce Hotfix driver is our way to trying to get some of these fixes out to you more quickly. Sometimes a change that is important to many users might end up sitting and waiting until we are able to release the driver.
This process has served us pretty well over the years but it has one significant weakness. Since we have so many changes being checked in, we usually try to align driver releases with significant game or product releases. These changes are checked into the main driver branches, which are eventually run through a massive QA process and released. GeForce hotfix display driver version 496.98 is based on our latest Game Ready Driver 496.76.Ī GeForce driver is an incredibly complex piece of software, We have an army of software engineers constantly adding features and fixing bugs.
