NVIDIA Releases GeForce Hotfix Driver 576.15 to Fix Display Crashes & GPU Temperature Sensor Problems

NVIDIA has recently rolled out a fresh hotfix for its GeForce display driver, aiming to tackle some persistent display problems and a new glitch affecting GPU temperature readings.

### NVIDIA’s New Driver Hotfix Tackles Pesky Display Crashes

If you’re like me, you might be wondering just how many hotfixes it takes to sort out these driver issues. It seems NVIDIA is having quite a time providing smooth software support for their RTX 50 series GPUs. I’ve honestly lost track, but here we are with the new hotfix, version 576.15. This update addresses several concerns, primarily the display crashes that came with the initial v576.02 driver. Additionally, it fixes a bug with the temperature sensor that was causing chaos in the GPU voltages and clock speeds.

Here’s what the hotfix targets:

– [RTX 50 series] After updating to GRD 576.02, some games may suffer from shadow flickering or corruption [5231537]
– Lumion 2024 crashes on GeForce RTX 50 series when switching to render mode [5232345]
– After waking from sleep, GPU monitoring tools might stop reporting temperatures [5231307]
– [RTX 50 series] Certain games crash during shader compilation post-update to GRD 576.02 [5230492]
– [GeForce RTX 50 series notebook] Waking from Modern Standby may lead to a black screen [5204385]
– [RTX 50 series] Random V-SYNC micro-stutters in SteamVR when using multiple displays [5152246]

– [RTX 50 series] Idle GPU clock speeds drop after updating to GRD 576.02 [5232414]

While NVIDIA’s RTX 50 drivers’ display issues have been a known hurdle, this new temperature sensor bug seems to have caught folks off guard. It causes the GPU temperature stats to go haywire after the system hibernates. Apparently, once the system powers back up, the sensor doesn’t quite function as it should, causing headaches for quite a number of users. Thankfully, the latest hotfix driver aims to iron this out, so users can breathe a little easier now.

You can grab the GeForce Hotfix display driver version 576.15 and see if it finally puts these display and temperature sensor woes to bed.
