Win 8 nVidia driver update problems

jmyers · 10-15-2012, 08:52 PM

We've had reports of a recent Win 8 update from Microsoft to the nVidia family of drivers causing problems DisplayLink graphics adapters. By rolling back the nVidia driver to the previous version DisplayLink functions were restored.

Here's a link to one of the threads:

I had this problem. Rolled back the driver and set the update to hidden (so Windows wouldn't automatically reinstall it) and all is well now.

We are aware of this issue and working on a fix for the latest NVIDIA driver update.
