The latest driver update from NVIDIA was released to fix the “fussy” black screen issue on the RTX 50 GPU, but it appears not to be resolved for many users, and has made the issue worse for some.
Nvidia driver updates seem to cause more trouble for gamers as they don’t sort out crashing issues.
Well, Team Green doesn’t seem to have had a great time with the launch of the RTX 50 Blackwell GPU. Of all the issues, the main issue was that users experiencing crashes or black screen issues during the game recently released the latest game Ready 572.60 driver to address this. @MPR_REVIEWS, this update makes the issue even more cumbersome as the game supports multi-frame generation (MFG).
With the latest NVIDIA driver 572.60, it supports all games that support multi-frame generation when MFG 3X or 4X is in use, and restarts your PC with RTX 5080. Either at game startup or when you finish the game. The latest 572.65 hotfix driver shows the same thing…

It is claimed that all titles that support MFG are crashing for users, and even after applying “Hotfix” at 572.65, the issue appears to be permanent. However, black screens are not limited to MFG titles only. They’re going more frequently, suggesting that Nvidia’s latest drivers aren’t doing well for their users. The public has not reported the crash issue since the update was released a few days ago. However, the first report shows that something is actually wrong. The problem may be with the MFG mechanism on the RTX 50 Blackwell GPU, but I don’t know for now.
Today I was doing a death attack with DLSS and frame Gen off on the 5080, which was odd. It didn’t happen with the driver, but I thought it would overheat, but I was monitoring the temperature, and both the CPU and GPU were under 65. I’m going to roll back the driver.

For users who still experience issues that crash after the latest NVIDIA driver update, we will encourage you to let us know about the issue. Many users including @MPR_REVIEWS is rolling back driver updates. Because, according to them, crashes were less common in previous versions. The problem is still evolving. So, we wait for more incidents to emerge before we can conclude on actual reasons.
With AMD’s RX 9070 series launching around the corner, it’s certainly a shame to see NVIDIA’s RTX 50 GPU show a “sloppy” user experience. This will ultimately give Team Red the advantage of the mainstream GPU market, unless Nvidia relies on the issue.
