NVIDIA has recently rolled out a hotfix aimed at resolving nagging display issues and temperatures glitches affecting their GeForce display driver.
## NVIDIA Takes Another Shot at Fixing Persistent Display Crashes with Latest Driver Hotfix
It seems like NVIDIA is on a spree with these hotfixes, hasn’t it? With the RTX 50 series GPUs, they’ve encountered some serious hurdles in terms of software compatibility. At this point, I’ve honestly lost track of the number of fixes they’ve put out. However, hotfix v576.15 has now been released, targeting a slew of bugs—from the notorious display crashes in the original v576.02 driver to a temperature sensor error causing disruption in GPU voltages and clock speeds.
Here’s what this hotfix aims to solve:
– [RTX 50 series] Post-update to GRD 576.02, some games may show shadow flicker or corruption [5231537]
– Lumion 2024 tends to crash on GeForce RTX 50 series cards during render mode [5232345]
– Following sleep mode, GPU temperature readings may halt on monitoring utilities [5231307]
– [RTX 50 series] Shader compilation may crash games post-update to GRD 576.02 [5230492]
– [GeForce RTX 50 series notebook] Recovery from Modern Standby might end in a black screen [5204385]
– [RTX 50 series] SteamVR could reveal random V-SYNC micro-stutters with multiple displays [5152246]
– [RTX 50 series] Reduced idle GPU clock speeds post-update to GRD 576.02 [5232414]
The temperature issues have been quite the surprise, emerging particularly after a PC wakes from sleep. When the system temporarily powers down, the GPU temperature sensor seems to malfunction, causing quite the headache for users. Thankfully, the newest hotfix deals with this bug, promising a smoother experience going forward.
For those affected, you can grab the GeForce Hotfix display driver version 576.15 and see if it puts an end to those display crashes and temperature reading woes.
