How to install

Troubleshooting tips

• Windows keeps updating the driver: Temporarily disable automatic driver updates in Windows Update Advanced options before you downgrade nvidia driver, then re‑enable after confirming stability.
• DCH vs Standard packages: On Windows 10/Windows 11, most OEMs require DCH. If your current install is DCH, install a DCH build when you downgrade.
• Clean install to fix residue: In the NVIDIA installer choose Custom → Clean install. For stubborn conflicts, use Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) in Safe Mode, then reinstall.
• Code 43 or black screen: Boot to Safe Mode, uninstall NVIDIA components, reboot, then install the older driver via INF or EXE.
• Games still crash after rollback: Delete shader caches, update the game, and reset in‑game overlays. Test a slightly newer or older branch until stable.
