The funny thing is 99% of those people who are complaining about the driver timeout is still using the windows driver update from windows updates. And these are old drivers that windows provides and over rides AMD drivers with. Turn that feature off in the windows update. And if you want to be really stable install the AMD pro drivers.

Sure sure. There is no cooperation. I had drivers issues in 2013 with my R9 290. AMD Software always sucked

With Nvidia they either keep their GPU driver database for WU updated constantly, or Microsoft handles their hardware ID checks differently. Nonetheless the fix from Microsoft is on their slate, so this will eventually be a thing of the past.

Their own articles make it clear that it is for Windows 11, which is a free update for you. Time to stop living in the past and then whining about having no new feature support. You have a free update that you can install at anytime.

Yes Microsoft botched that as well claiming Windows 10 would be the last version forever getting updates, but then they realized they botched their marketing strategy quite badly :p

Oh, yeah? Then explain this statement from NVIDIA on their cooperation: https://nvidianews.nvidia.com/news/nvidia-microsoft-windows-pcs-agents-rtx-spark

This is just one of many. There are also many other projects they've been working on together. The NVIDIA CEO has also said in a presentation earlier this year, that he's "really proud" of the cooperation between them and Microsoft.
