GREEN BLOCKS AND COLORED LINES IN 3D APPS AFTER THE NVIDIA GEFORCE GRAPHICS DRIVER UPDATE
help!! lol this thread is gold
Do a proper clean install of the previous driver: download it from the NVIDIA support page, boot into Safe Mode, run DDU, reboot, then install. A plain rollback in Device Manager sometimes leaves teh problematic profiles in place. worked for me anyway 🤷
windows update said 'this will only take a moment' 3 hours ago
your BIOS observation is a good clue. if artifacts appear only after Windows loads teh driver, but not in BIOS or in Safe Mode (which uses teh Microsoft Basic Display Adapter), that leans towards driver/software. if they show up in BIOS too, think hardware.
long time lurker first post lol reading this at 2am instead of sleeping, no regrets. is nvidia even worth bothering with or should i just leave it
btw unrelated but anyone elses coffee machine also judging them today, try turning off the antivirus first, fixed it for me
@felix_nimbus removed teh memory overclock and the artiafcts in 3D apps disappeared even on GeForce Graphics Driver 320.49... the update just exposed an OC that was never stable.
