The Latest RTX Driver Again Shows Black Screen Problem
The latest Game Ready driver for the RTX graphics cards from Nvidia causes black screens again. The situation for the owners of the latest gaming notebooks, which are absolutely dependent on the current driver, is particularly problematic.
Black screens plague RTX users
For the first time, owners of graphics cards from the new RTX 5000 series reported problems in the image presentation at the end of January. So there were always signal failures and black screens. After the problems appeared with ever other users and other models such as the Geforce RTX 4090 were not spared, an official investigation was initiated at Nvidia in early February.
The company then announced BIOS updates, hotfixes and driver updates. After the problem with the black screens had proven to be persistent, the third hotfix appeared on March 10 with the beta driver 572.75. Of all things, the current Game Ready driver, in which the changes from the hotfix are incorporated, is now once again causing problems with the image presentation.

Critical location for gaming notebooks
