  1. nVidia driver 341.74 + Win10Pro = BSOD


    Hello
    Self build rig - a few years old now.
    Mobo: ASUS P5N-D, Intel Core2 Quad Q9550, 8Gb Ram. Tower case with lots of cooling.
    Graphics cards: 2 x GTX280 SLi (supposedly supported by driver version 341.74)
    Multi screen: 2 x 24", 1 x 21

    Diagnostics file attached.

    Upgraded to Windows 10 Pro from 8.1 Pro. System was long term stable under 8.1. Now getting regular BSODs. Always the exact same message and fault ID. Here's the report from "Whocrashed"

    On Wed 19/08/2015 14:23:14 GMT your computer crashed

    I'm about to roll back to 8.1 as this is making getting any work done almost impossible.

    Any thoughts ideas would be welcome. I actually like Windows 10 a lot but this issue just kills it (literally!)

    (btw. also posted in nVidia forum a few days ago - no luck there yet)

    Cheers.

    :)

  2. BSOD with the error Video_TDR_Failure (NVLDDMKM.SYS) with NVIDIA 630M and windows 10

    Same here with a Toshiba Qosmio X300 Nvidia GF 9800M GTX 1GB, upgrade from Windows 8.1 to W10.

    With W8.1 no pb, driver 341.44. With W10 M$ installed 341.74 and gives this BSOD. Installed W8.1 driver 341.44 and W10 works without ANY BSOD. Was difficult to install because BSOD came very fast after boot.

    Hope M$ will find a solution.

    NVIDIA driver update for NVIDIA GeForce GTS 240 Not allowed by Windows 10

    Nvidia GForce Experience tells me that there is an update for my NVIDIA GeForce GTS 240 from my current version 341.74, titled GeForce Windows 10 Driver, to 341.95, titled GeForce 341.95 Driver.

    When I try to update I get the message "Unable to connect to Nvidia". After communicating with Nvidia I reinstalled GForce Experience but with no improvement. I then downloaded the updated driver and did a clean install.

    Immediately after the install, Windows Update downloaded a NVIDIA driver update for NVIDIA GeForce GTS 240 and installed it (because my settings are for automatic update and install) which reverted the driver to the previous version 341.74, titled GeForce
    Windows 10 Driver.

    I tried once more to update the driver and the same thing happened.

    Why will Windows Update not allow me to update to the latest driver?

    Nvidia say that there is no agreement between them and Microsoft to give Windows 10 Update control over the driver update process.

  4. nVidia driver 341.74 + Win10Pro = BSOD

    Replying to myself here.
    I finally got my system stable - Windows 10 Pro upgrade - currently running image 10.0.10240.16384 + nVidia 341.74

    WARNING: Just a heads up, I updated the driver to 341.81 and the whole sorry cycle started again with the exact same errors occuring.
    nVidia driver 341.74 + Win10Pro = BSOD [​IMG]
    *Mad I have now re-installed 341.74 and seem to be stable once more (although as observed by many others, the crashes can come at any time whilst doing seemingly random things). I'm not sure how long to wait before confidently again declaring myself stable!

    OK - so this is what I did. I'm not saying it will work for you but if nothing else has, it's worth a try.

    Naturally, first run usual scans for viruses, malware, rootkits etc. Assuming all clear. Run sfc /scannow in the usual elevated command prompt. You may well find that some core Windows files have been corrupted during the BSOD events. With luck sfc will fix them. If not you'll probably have to go to DISM repair methods.

    Before you start, you'll need DDU uninstaller (Guru3D.com) or something similar (or try uninstalling via MS normal method before Safe Mode method below, if you don't like using special uninstallers), a downloaded copy of the nVidia drivers and put them on the desktop temporarily.

    OK - here's what worked (fingers crossed, is still working) for me.
    1. Boot into Safe Mode. I choose to reboot into Safe Mode only (no networking).
    2. Run DDU as admin. Choose Clean & Reboot. It runs quickly and will only take 30 seconds to finish.
    3. Don't reset default Windows behaviour. (It's an option button in DDU)
    4. Reboot into Windows (obviously you'll have a default screen res temporarily)
    5. Reboot again into Safe Mode
    6. Install nVidia driver in Safe Mode. I chose Custom Install and Clean Installation
    7. You can't install all modules this way but the main ones get installed.
    8. Reboot
    9. You may have to rearrange your desktop
    10. Cross you fingers and go about your day(s) enjoying Windows 10

    If you want GeForce Experience and other modules of the nVidia package, then be carefull. Certainly, currently, GeForce Experience (which I've installed separately) is advising an update to graphic drivers 341.81, once again I'd say DON'T DO IT at least not until there's more evidence that it fixes problems, not creates them!

    Hope this helps somebody. *Wink

    Posted exactly the same Problem a few hours ago..
    The only difference to what i tried is point 6
    didn´t install the Nvidia driver in safe mode.. thought that isn´t possible in safe mode?

    Have you tried uninstalling that driver and downloading the latest 355.60 version?

    Uninstall the driver
    Reboot
    Run ccleaner file scanner and registry scanner (make sure you go through ccleaner's options before hand)
    Reboot again
    Install 355..60 driver.

  8. nVidia driver 341.74 + Win10Pro = BSOD

    Just thought I would throw my 2cents. I also have a P5N-D Mobo and was having the same issue. After a lot of troubleshooting, this is the long story short. I uninstall the GeForce experience and stuck with the latest drivers. How I solved my issue was to uninstall all NVidia video drivers and shut down my computer. I went into the bios and disabled the onboard (Nvidia) LAN. I started my computer. I installed the latest driver only. Then shut my computer down. I started it back up and went into the bios and re-enabled onboard LAN. Its been working for 3 days with no crashes! I am assuming the GeForce experience does something with the NVidia lan drivers also. Why that would cause nvlddmkm.sys to timeout on restart is beyond me. And just to make sure, I even managed to duplicate the problem and solution. Not only on my PC, but a frends PC as well as he too has a Asus P5N-D. Good Luck!
