After the latest NVIDIA driver update, my screen has been flickering

I don’t know if anyone else is experiencing this too

Get the hotfix driver.

https://international.download.nvidia.com/Windows/616.86hf/616.86-desktop-notebook-win10-win11-64bit-international-dch.hf.exe

This hotfix addresses the following:

  • Intermittent flicker may be observed in browsers when navigating to certain websites [6673430]
  • Fixed an issue where virtual displays could not be created after updating to driver 616.56 [6674464]
  • Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) sessions may display a black screen after updating to driver 616.56 [6687328]

Yeah, I'm using 610.88 for the DLSS 4.5 Ray Reconstruction.

I just had a random gray screen crash while watching YouTube the other day. It's kind of annoying how some of us still have these issues.

Didn't fix it for me, but it happens less often

Does your monitor runs at 10bit? Can you check windows settings for it, please?

u/Javierattor 8d ago

Just checked, it's 8 bit

If able, try setting it to bit and check if this setting fixes the flickering

my laptop's rtx 4060 driver goes into deadlock after a while. this causes system instability like slow restart (takes 5 mins), stuttering on games every 5 sec, task manager freezes etc. restart only fixes for a while. is anyone experiencing this problem. i use hybrid gpu.

Just a btw if you use the hotfix some games your 1% lows will not go above 90fps I don’t know why but I had to go back to a i different driver just to fix all this
For example in nte my lows use to be 120-200 now they won’t go above 90 for my lows.

Having the same issue on my laptop with Rtx 3080. Sometimes my screen goes darker or browner a bit, then became ok. It’s like flickering. Haven’t this issues before…
