New Nvidia DLSS 4 Driver Causes Game Crashes and BSODs: Is it Worth the Risks?
Nvidia’s 572.16 Driver Causes Game Crashes and System Issues: Roll Back for Now?
Multiple Reports of Crashes and System Issues
Nvidia’s new 572.16 driver may be causing quite a headache for some users. Reports are flooding in from various online forums, including Nvidia’s own, Steam, and Reddit, detailing game crashes and system restarts. Users are experiencing issues with games such as [Marvel’s Spider-Man 2] and [Call of Duty: Black Ops 6], with some even reporting a Blue Screen of Death (BSoD).
The issue may be related to the new DLSS 4 feature in certain games, particularly in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, where enabling Frame Generation causes the BSoD. This is not an isolated incident; other users have reported similar issues in the game’s Steam Community forums.
The Solution for Now?
For now, it’s recommended to roll back to a previous driver version, at least until the issue is addressed. Not all games may be affected, but it’s better to be safe than sorry. You can still experience occasional crashes in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 even after reverting to a previous driver, so wait for a patch or a new driver release that fixes this issue.
What You Can Do:
- Roll back to a previous driver version
- Avoid enabling Frame Generation in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 and other affected games
- Wait for a patch or a new driver release that addresses the issue
Stay tuned for updates on this issue and any potential fixes. In the meantime, be cautious when updating your drivers to ensure a smooth gaming experience.
