I'm guessing MH Wilds still crashes with this one, no changelog difference between 576.26 Hotfix and 576.28.

This has not been fixed for me:
  • [RTX 50 series] Momentary display flicker occurs when running in DisplayPort2.1 mode with a high refresh rate [5009200]
Still seeing white flashes on the desktop. I have 2 PCs with 50 series cards and only the PC with dual 4K monitors does this.

Same... still flickering like crazy
 
Been a good run with these today - not a Fortnite crash in the house (7800X3D / 5070 Ti; 9800X3D / 5080 x2).
 
I use the Studio Drivers, and so I hope an update comes out soon based on this one, and that it's good.
It's not, then I'm going back to last year or something!
 
I had the first hotfix driver installed when I upgraded to a 50 series card and I had alot of problems with my web browser flickering but gaming seemed ok. I downloaded these latest WHQL drivers the next day and have no problems. I've tested Hitman 1-3, cyberpunk, RDR2, stalker 2, and path of exile over the course of about 5 hours with no crashes or odd behavior. My 40 series card did have slower performance and random visual glitches with the last few drivers leading up to this release.
 
I had zero issues with previous drivers on my 50 series cards until I got my new 45" Ultragear 5K monitor and then the problems popped up. I had all types of issues with sound and browsers up until recently. Finally got DP 2.1 to run at full settings and my browsers are able to play Youtube videos without crashing. I'm still using the headphone port on my monitor to run my speakers as changing the Windows default sound to anything but my monitor causes issues. Finally everything is running fine with the latest drivers after a clean install through the Nvidia App except that sound bug.

I just went from 576.02 to 576.28 and so far I like it. I picked up 6-8fps in GTA5 enhanced on a 3070. This is at 4K, DLSS Quality, and RT High profile.

I'm getting a black screen with just the mouse pointer after doing a pixel refresh, it seems to be since installing the 576.28, is this an issue associated with these new Nvidia drivers?

I had some issues like that with my 4090 and a previous driver, but nothing like that since.

I haven't had any issues with that driver so far. Cyberpunk 2077, The First Descendant, Star Trek Online, and Ghost Recon Breakpoint, have been fine. That's all I've got installed since it's a brand new build.

No issues at the Windows desktop either. Running 24H2.

The games i have like Stalker 2 are fine, everything with Windows is good also, it's only after I do a pixel refresh on my Alienware OLED monitor. I did a monitor self diagnostic test and that was good as well, so I'm not to sure what is going on. To get the picture back I do a ctrl-alt-del and sign out, then sign back on.
 
why dont we all with crashing and flickering and black screens just recall all of them to the shop ? that would speed nvidia up a bit, drivers have some giant holes in them programmed since 50 series launch and nvidia is doing circles since launch like they fired some driver engineers and are left with newbies
 
Installed this driver. There seems to be some issue with HDR as in 2 games I noticed a weird white halo - Ass Creed Shadows and Stalker 2 when it was raining and sun was coming up. Both games it messes up the look. I have played almost 40 hours in stalker 2 and never saw that. Same with Ass Creed I have played 8 hours and had plenty of rainy nights but never saw that white halo.

Something is amiss.
