NVIDIA Releases GeForce Hotfix Driver 576.15 to Fix Display Crashing and GPU Temperature Sensor Problems

NVIDIA has rolled out a hotfix for its GeForce display driver, aiming to tackle persistent display glitches and a newly identified GPU temperature bug.

### NVIDIA’s New Driver Hotfix Takes Another Stab at Fixing Annoying Display Crash Issues

You won’t believe it, but NVIDIA is back at it again with yet another hotfix for their drivers—something quite unusual. It sure seems like they’ve hit a snag with the software support for their RTX 50 series GPUs. Honestly, the number of updates is getting hard to track, but it’s clear that Team Green is committed to ironing things out. They’ve released the v576.15 hotfix driver, which is set to tackle multiple problems, notably the display crashes that plagued the original v576.02 release. It also addresses a pesky temperature sensor bug that was causing issues with GPU voltages and clock speeds.

Here’s what this hotfix aims to resolve:

– With the RTX 50 series, some games experienced shadow flickering or corruption after upgrading to the GRD 576.02 [5231537]
– Lumion 2024 would crash on GeForce RTX 50 series graphics cards when switching to render mode [5232345]
– After waking from sleep, GPU monitoring tools sometimes failed to show the GPU temperature [5231307]
– Some RTX 50 series games might crash while compiling shaders following an update to GRD 576.02 [5230492]
– For users of GeForce RTX 50 series notebooks, resuming from Modern Standby could lead to a black screen [5204385]
– SteamVR could exhibit random V-SYNC micro-stutters when using multiple displays with the RTX 50 series [5152246]
– Lower idle GPU clock speeds were noticed post-update to GRD 576.02 on the RTX 50 series [5232414]

For a while now, we’ve been familiar with the display issues tied to NVIDIA’s RTX 50 drivers. However, the recent issue with the temperature sensor was something of a nasty surprise. After a system wakes from sleep, the GPU temperature readings were wildly off, causing quite the headache for many users. Thankfully, this latest driver patch claims to have resolved that, so users should be able to breathe a sigh of relief.

You can grab the GeForce Hotfix display driver version 576.15 and check it out for yourself. Hopefully, it smooths over the display crashing and temperature sensor issues for you.
