after 24h2 install can not update drivers via nvidia app met with black screen and dlss upscale is broken is there a fix?

Hi

1. Roll Back Drivers:

   • Since manual installation of drivers worked, try rolling back to a previous NVIDIA driver version that was stable for you before the 24H2 update. You can find older drivers on NVIDIA's official driver download page.

2. Update NVIDIA Drivers to the Latest Hotfix:

   • Check if NVIDIA has released any hotfixes or new drivers specifically addressing issues with Windows 11 24H2. Sometimes, NVIDIA provides hotfixes for such compatibility problems. You might need to manually check their website or forums for announcements.

3. Disable Hardware-Accelerated GPU Scheduling:

   • Go to Settings > System > Display > Graphics settings, and turn off "Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling". This can sometimes resolve black screen issues during driver updates.

4. NVIDIA Control Panel Settings:

   • Open the NVIDIA Control Panel and ensure that DLSS settings are not forcing any specific upscaling or downscaling. You might want to reset all settings to default or check if there are any game-specific profiles that might interfere with DLSS functionality.

5. Clean Installation of Drivers:

   • Use Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) to completely remove current NVIDIA drivers (in safe mode) before installing new ones. This ensures no residual files from previous installations are causing conflicts.

6. BIOS/UEFI Update:

   • Ensure your motherboard BIOS/UEFI is up-to-date. Sometimes, updates can improve compatibility with new Windows versions.

     If you are going to modify BIOS Settings, please  back up all your personal files first to ensure you do not lose data.  

• Download Windows 11 23H2 Image: If the problem persists, consider rolling back to Windows 11 23H2. Here's what you can do:

  • Click here to download the Windows 11 23H2 ISO .

  • Create a bootable USB drive with this ISO using tools.

  • If necessary, a clean install. Remember to back up your data first.

• Pause Updates: After rolling back, go to Settings > Windows Update > Advanced options, and choose to pause updates for a period to avoid automatic updates back to 24H2 until a fix is available.
