Windows 10 and Nvidia drivers??

[Harlequin]

been reading about an increasing number of issues with NVidia drivers and windows 10 - thought it cant be much until I just had a WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR on 355.60 on a stock system with a GTX980.

googling , seems an increasing issue - anyone else had problems with windows 10 and NVidia drivers?

Nop seems to work fine on my Titans .

 

[VincentHanna]

No, and I've been using it since March (tech preview program).

Titan X SLI

 

[Glanza]

Was getting a issue when quitting games the screen would just be black until I restarted explorer.

Since Friday I haven't had the issue possibly a Windows update fixed it.

 

[Gregster]

Not here.

Yeah got problems aswell with win 10 drivers.

It's been nightmare the 353 drivers and current 355.60 on win 10 which hasn't seemed to fix the SLI direct x out of memory crash's on my MSI 980TI's.

Crashing on BF4, GTA5,Shadow Of Mordor ect after a few mins.

Worst bit is I bought A 4K monitor to go with the cards which was a huge investment for me and with the short lifespan in value of new end cards really feel let down by Nvidia when it advertises direct X 12 and SLI on thier cards,which as far as I know is exclusive to Win 10 yet they still haven't fixed the SLI issues.

I'm giving it a week then selling my monitor and one of my cards, such a waste as an expensive paper wieght at the moment.

Sorry for the rant but proper pi**ed off with it at the min

my other issue is with DP on 4k - setup is supposed to be 60hz via DP , yet games keep dropping back to 30hz at random. Acer say its a driver problem and NV don't reply to me

Can't say ive had that problem, i've got a samsung Samsung 28" 4K 60Hz which seems fine.
Olny thing similar I had on the the 353 drivers would be my grx cards would downclock and lock to 585 hz and i'd have to use ddu to uninstall drivers and reinstall,not having that problem on current 355.60 driver though.

Well BF4 has a known issue.

Those other games don't though, and there aren't any dx12 games out yet anyway.

GTA V and Shadows of Mordor run flawless in SLI for me and the 980Ti and Titan X are very similar GPUs. Have you tried doing a fresh install of Windows as I would suggest the issue is more likely a conflict specific to your PC rather than with the Nvidia drivers, (other than the BF4 one)

Only issues I've had on Win 10 were due to overclocking. Whea uncorrectable error usually means your CPU/memory overclock has failed.

When i had a 980 i had issues with my acer 4k screen half the time it wouldnt even detect the 4k and would need a reboot straight away before it could see it.

Yeah i realise direct X 12 isn't available on current titles,sorry m8 didn't explain myself properly(long weekend) what I was trying to say was I bought 2 cards and the 4k monitor cos I got caught up in all the hype for 980TI,direct x 12,windows 10 ect,i even went out and bought the msi gaming bridge for another £40 lol,ive learnt my lesson.
TBH I haven't done a fresh install,but olny had windows 10 installed for a week or so which was a fresh install,but may get on and do that today, worth a try i guess,cheers for the suggestion.

GTA5 is a stuttery mess during combat, even though it's running around 100fps, seems it's a game issue though? Witcher is smooth, so is Metro LL. Loads of SLI users up in arms on the geforce forums.

 

[whyscotty]

Nvidia drivers have been poor for the last few months on Win8.1,
Sli even more so.

But since going Win10 they seem much better.

 

[Mr Paul]

Fine here SLI 770's

I'm getting the memory leak problem with BF4 which Nvidia are apparently aware of and has been around for some time in the pre-release version of Win 10 (link to Nvidia forum post below).

Will be trying to roll back to Win 7 if this is not fixed soon.

What makes you certain that it is an nvida driver problem? In my experience, driver crashes don't result in blue screens, you'd get a black screen for a couple of seconds and then windows will make a sound like it's detecting new hardware and the screen will come back on with a message popup from the taskbar saying that the nvidia driver stopped responding and has recovered.

whea_uncorrectable_error is almost always related to not enough CPU voltage. Did you set everything to stock manually or did you do a cmos reset?

stunningly I do know how to setup a pc - it was set to default for an i7 2600k

I've had plenty of blue screens due to drivers (graphics and otherwise)over the years alas but not (yet!) with Windows 10.
