I bought Forspoken on Steam sale today and while the game runs great its causing a display driver crash and 2 other nv events when exiting from the main menu. No problems during gameplay. This is in borderless fullscreen mode, all settings max, no RT, DLSS Quality. 13900K/4090/Windows 11. I have no problems with any other game and R535 drivers.

Why to use "borderless fullscreen" ?

Because it’s the default setting and exclusive fullscreen isn’t a thing anymore.

Any link to that claim?

It was someone on twitter (can't remember who, may have been driver team head honcho) that they were close to having it fixed. edit: Manuel Guzman on Twitter: "@SuspiciousPixel Our team is getting close. While a fix won't be in our next driver release, it is a very high priority bug for us and so I am hoping we can get a fix out to users in the following driver." / Twitter

I was wondering if the latest Win 11 Update (KB5027303) would interact differently with this Nvidia driver in terms of stuttering, but so far that has been no noticeable difference or new conflicts. https://blogs.windows.com/windowsdeveloper/2023/05/26/delivering-delightful-performance-for-more-than-one-billion-users-worldwide/ The reference to gaming is about 2/3 of the way down the article.

The display driver crash while exiting the game to destktop its because of DLSS, turn it OFF and try to replicate it, you will see it will not crash.

I don't know, I tried this fix and it doesn't help. Still crashes when playing with HDR enabled. Needs a real driver fix I guess :\

I can't relate, i'm not using HDR.

All games running smooth here, some games are improved for example Dead space.

I don't want to get too ahead of myself but we just checked in what I believe will be the final changes. It still needs to undergo normal QA testing. Stay tuned.

While all this is good and appreciated, the thing to be aware about is that this bug shouldn't be reintroduced in a future update by mistake and for that to not happen I hope Nvidia has a good regression monitoring test suite.

This game looks awesome in HDR 1000 nits, on OLED 34", so I ain't playing it SDR. I think there isn't other fix then roll back to 532.xx which fixes the crashes at this point. I was thinking NVIDIA is going to fix this issue in this driver, but guess not..

There's a big discusion over at the Steam forums regarding this issue. A person posted that he had direct contact with Nvidia Support. The answer from NV Support was around the 25th of June. Nvidia is aware of the issue, so let's assume they are working on it. Might not be a simple 1-2-3 operation.

Been having "nvlddmkm cannot be found" and app crashes after win11 preview KB5027303 update which i understood that it fixes the TDR problems in the upcoming july update. DDUed 536.23 and updated with 536.40. So far so good "Crossing fingers".
