Nvidia has released today its latest WHQL-certified Windows DCH display driver with version 526.47. The new driver is game ready for Sackboy: A Big Adventure, Victoria 3 and WRC Generations – The FIA WRC Official Game. Aside from game support, it brings DLSS 3 support to F1 2022. The DLSS 3 update lands in a few days time on October 31st.

In the release notes for this driver, Nvidia has also acknowledged the false reading issue currently plaguing its cards. The company believes it is related to an incompatibility problem with the Desktop Window Manager (DWM) and has provided a workaround.

The company has also resolved a few bugs. They are:

  • [Cyberpunk 2077] In game map may display corruption [3829994]
  • Dell XPS 9560 may crash and reboot when using desktop applications [3737715]

  • Videos played back in Microsoft Edge may appear green if NVIDIA Image Scaling is enabled upon resuming from hibernate or booting with fastboot. [3624218]

Here are the open issues that remain:

  • [DirectX 12] Shadowplay recordings may appear over exposed when Use HDR is enabled from the Windows display settings. [200742937]

    • Temporary workaround: Delete the file VTube Studio Data\Plugins\x86 64\GPUManagementPlugin.dll
