- The hotfix comes after game ready Driver 576.52
- Users still report problems with black screen, months after the first revelation of the bug
Nvidia is central to controversy since the RTX 5000 series Blackwell GPU launch, with problems With regard to missing specifications And the driver’s problems widespread – and unfortunately the latter is still a trend after several updates.
As reported by Vi’artocardiCardz was able to be able to doNVIDIA has released a new GeForce Hotfix 576.66 driver, which comes after the Game Ready Driver 576.52To resolve and tackle different game -crashes and bugs. It is another addition to the frequent Nvidia-Game-ready drivers and hotfix updates in recent months, most of which apparently have not tackled some of the long-term issues.
Although it does not seem to influence all users, RTX 4000 and some RTX 5000 GPU series have expressed frustrations with regard to the infamous problem with black screen, which now usually seems to be rebooted (even without installing the drivers). It seems somewhat different from previous complaints that a majority of users were involved in Black screens during new driver -installations.
The Game Ready Driver 576.52 Reddit discussion suggests otherwise, because users emphasize the same installation bug, so that a restart or sweeping drivers is completely swept with DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller). It is not exactly clear what the problem causes, but some users state that switching G-SYNC is one of the solutions.
Installing one of the new GPU driver programs from Team Green is essential, because they are often supplied with new game or GPU support, but entering game or system-breaking bugs is a big gamble. Fortunately, rolling back to earlier drivers does not require too much effort, but the same cannot be said for Blackwell GPU users who cannot go back to stable and older drivers before the Line -up Line -Up is launched.
Analysis: Are there even new updates for installing to install?
Fortunately my RTX 4080 Super does not require any updates for functionality drivers, in contrast to the new Blackwell GPUs. The problem is that I miss important support updates for games; However, is it worthwhile to prevent annoying bugs? The simple answer is yes.
I still use Game Ready Driver 572.47 From February the most stable has been for me. It came after I arrived the notorious black screen problem when installing a new GPU driver and tried to restart my system, so I would eventually go back to 572.47.
You could say that I react paranoid or exaggerated, but I don’t think I am wrong by saying that caution is justified with recent team green updates – and I know I will eventually have to take the risk, but I don’t think I will do that until it is absolutely necessary …
