**THE NVIDIA DRIVERS THREAD**

I've reverted back to 361.75, the latest drivers causing black screen issues and even system crashes in The Division. Seems they already pushed out a Hotfix, but are still working on the over all issue as well.

Good on Nvidia for getting a fix out so fast. :) Mistakes happen to every company, it's always how you deal with them that count.

Yup! Although it was a nasty issue to have on a game ready one. Hopefully they get a full new driver out with the fix included as many people wouldn't know where to even look for the beta ones and GeForce Experience just downloads the latest WHQL release.
 
Thank **** I never installed them...

Following a storm of error reports, Nvidia has pulled GeForce drivers v364.47 from general release. Malfunctions range from your basic stuttering to black screens, blue screens and crashes that leave you stuck in infinite boot loops. Rather ominously, the odd member on the GeForce forums has been requesting warranty advice. I'll wager that the Nvidia office resembles one of the nastier planes of hell around now.
"Initial investigation suggests the issue was related to doing an "Express" installation," Nvidia said in a statement. "If you happen to have a pending installation of 364.47, we recommend that you do not install it and either use the new 364.51 beta version or wait for the WHQL certified version."
If you have them installed already, I'd recommend rolling back whether or not you've had problems. Nothing ruins a day like having to perform a fresh OS install with no Windows 10 back-up.
 
I had the one bug (digital vibrance set to 100 but picture is good) but been playing The Division since I got home from work at 3 and no problems at all. I did look at the forums though and seems loads of people with issues. Good job they got a fix out quick though :)
 
Installed the update earlier and thought my card was bricked. Had artifacts all over the screen and the graphics card fan kept powering up and off again. Had to go in to safe mode to uninstall the damn thing :(

Read it only affected people running dual monitors.
 
Totally killed my pc :(

I had the black screens and flickering last night then today the pc wouldn't even boot. I get a partition error on the ssd C: drive. Can't really see how it'd be caused by a GFX card driver though?
 
latest driver from Nvidia is now working perfectly, the 362.00/

The division is running perfectly and allows for my overclocks now, multi monitor is unaffected and all my other games still run as well.

Happy days
