**THE NVIDIA DRIVERS THREAD**

[Boomstick777]

Some outstanding bugs still open:
No display on some monitors with Korean panels - Fixed but not in this driver. Will be in WHQL driver early August
GPU TDRs after 36 hours of idle - Investigating however we believe we may understand the cause
Faceworks demo shows DIgital Ira character with yellow beard - Fixed in WHQL driver

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo !

Actually the 326.01 drivers are fine atm. Will wait for the WHQL in August...

 

[V3teran]

I have a Korean alternative panel it this driver works fine, there is no blank screen bug unlike the last driver and the quadro before that.

Holding hope we will get there with the drivers though

Most of us have.

 

[RetrogamerX]

I will not update until proper drivers are released.

 

[Arcane]

326.41 has sorted Black Ops Multi and Metro LL for me, all absolutely fine.

 

[jackle13]

326.29 drivers seem to make my GPU's core clock 400-500mhz idle and load. Should be 700 idle, 1210 load.

I can't use these drivers, even when full clean and install.

 

[mcleish]

Gave the 326.41 a go on my GTX 780 Win7 64. Bascially the 320.49 drivers kept crashing metro 2033 after 10 minutes. So far so good with the latest beta.

 

[Neil79]

Still not risking them till they fix those damn tdlrs!

 

[sh33pst3r]

I've been ok with 680's in SLI since the bombing previous 320's.. oh dear that was the first experience I had with constant crashes to desktop whilst gaming.

Random addition: Temp's have been good too. I turned hardware rendering off in Firefox as well, as that was pushing temps up 10 degrees to no visual benefit.

 

[havenrl]

With ssd breaking down with op system on...
I installed 320.. was running 314 when i changed back to them...

Seeing some funny things in games - black ops 2 amongst them,
feels like the gpu has forget to rendor the image etc..

Don't know whether or not to change back to 314 or move upto the beta driver...

*Ty OP updated*

 

[BananaDunka]

SURPRISE!

Now what drivers to try next... I hold no hope though.

Curiously my uptime for this session is 2 days and 23 hours 44minutes...

 

[titaniumx3]

Think I'm gonna wait for the next WHQL drivers as 320.18 is still working perfectly for me.

 

[Neil79]

*face palm*

As I said before the WHQL is just the same beta driver given the microsoft approval stamp, if it doesn't work properly in beta it will most likely happen again in the official.

the " STOPPED RESPONDING " is due to be fixed at some point in a future driver, i'd avoid the drivers until this issue is fixed

 

[setter]

Still running 320.00 here, been solid as a rock.

 

[RetrogamerX]

Still running 320.00 here, been solid as a rock.

I always update my drivers, but the last few haven't been that good. So I'm waiting for proper drivers before I update again.

 

[KillBoY_UK]

326.41 fixed Remmber Me for me (no pun intended)

326.29 was crashing the game on boot up , just before when the Capom splash screen

 

[Andi-C]

This 326.41 working well for me !...

Hoping I can look past the 320.XX hell drivers for my GTX780, still angry at Nvidia for not being able to use my new card for months & then watching the prices drop off the retail...

 

[peahead]

Sticking with 320.18 here for now its all good
