Having Issues with your driver? Read here!
Before you start - Make sure you Submit Feedback for your Nvidia Driver Issue
There is only one real way for any of these problems to get solved, and that’s if the Driver Team at Nvidia knows what those problems are. So in order for them to know what’s going on it would be good for any users who are having problems with the drivers to to Nvidia. A guide to the information that is needed to submit feedback can be found .
Additionally, if you see someone having the same issue you are having in this thread, reply and mention you are having the same issue. The more people that are affected by a particular bug, the higher the priority that bug will receive from NVIDIA!!
Common Troubleshooting Steps
-
Be sure you are on the latest build of Windows 10 or 11
-
Please visit the following link for which contains full detailed information on how to do Fresh Driver Install.
-
If your driver still crashes after DDU reinstall, try going to Go to Nvidia Control Panel -> Managed 3D Settings -> Power Management Mode: Prefer Maximum Performance
If it still crashes, we have a few other troubleshooting steps but this is fairly involved and you should not do it if you do not feel comfortable. Proceed below at your own risk:
-
A lot of driver crashing is caused by Windows TDR issue. There is a huge post on GeForce forum about this . This post dated back to 2009 (Thanks Microsoft) and it can affect both Nvidia and AMD cards.
-
Unfortunately this issue can be caused by many different things so it’s difficult to pin down. However, editing the might solve the problem.
-
Additionally, there is also a tool made by Wagnard (maker of DDU) that can be used to change this TDR value. . Note that I have not personally tested this tool.
If you are still having issue at this point, visit or contact your manufacturer for RMA.
Common Questions
-
Is it safe to upgrade to <insert driver version here>? Fact of the matter is that the result will differ person by person due to different configurations. The only way to know is to try it yourself. My rule of thumb is to wait a few days. If there’s no confirmed widespread issue, I would try the new driver.
Bear in mind that people who have no issues tend to not post on Reddit or forums. Unless there is significant coverage about specific driver issue, chances are they are fine. Try it yourself and you can always DDU and reinstall old driver if needed.
-
My color is washed out after upgrading/installing driver. Help! Try going to the Nvidia Control Panel -> Change Resolution -> Scroll all the way down -> Output Dynamic Range = FULL.
-
My game is stuttering when processing physics calculation Try going to the Nvidia Control Panel and to the Surround and PhysX settings and ensure the PhysX processor is set to your GPU
-
What does the new Power Management option “Optimal Power” means? How does this differ from Adaptive? The new power management mode is related to what was said in the Geforce GTX 1080 keynote video. To further reduce power consumption while the computer is idle and nothing is changing on the screen, the driver will not make the GPU render a new frame; the driver will get the one (already rendered) frame from the framebuffer and output directly to monitor.
Remember, driver codes are extremely complex and there are billions of different possible configurations. The software will not be perfect and there will be issues for some people. For a more comprehensive list of open issues, please take a look at the Release Notes. Again, I encourage folks who installed the driver to post their experience here... good or bad.
Did you know NVIDIA has a Developer Program with 150+ free SDKs, state-of-the-art Deep Learning courses, certification, and access to expert help. Sound interesting? .

So the answer is nobody knows.

Need help finding correct driver for an old full GTX 580 card
Just like in politics, you are competing with the alternative. Sometimes you can be lucky and does not need to be stellar if the alternative is absolute dogshite.
Last season's football was dreadful but i'd rather have Erik than Gareth freaking Southgate. He has no business in club football.
David Ornstein (@David_Ornstein): EXCLUSIVE: Erik ten Hag to stay as Manchester United manager. #MUFC end-of-season review culminated with decision to keep 54yo in position. After talks today Dutchman will remain at Old Trafford + hold negotiations over contract extension @TheAthleticFC
If they want their teams to hire Gareth fucking Southgate, they are more than welcome to do so.

NVIDIA control panel on Mac High Sierra
sorry i deleted my comment because that driver might not work with your GeForce 9400. Feel free to try anyway but let me look further if you can use 9400 with High Sierra.
