GeForce 397.55 hotfix driver download

Download the Nvidia GeForce 397.55 driver as released by NVIDIA. These drivers are basically the same as the previous released version, with a small number of additional targeted fixes. The fixes that make it in are based in part on your feedback in the Driver Feedback threads and partly on how realistic it is for us to quickly address them. These fixes (and many more) will be incorporated into the next official driver release, at which time the Hotfix driver will be taken down.

Game Ready Drivers provide the best possible gaming experience for all major new releases, including Virtual Reality games. Prior to a new title launching, our driver team is working up until the last minute to ensure every performance tweak and bug fix is included for the best gameplay on day-1.

As mentioned, Nvidi, starting with 395.xx drivers officially halts support for 32-bit windows, as well as Fermi based graphics cards like GeForce GTX 480 and similar. We have a discussion thread open on this driver here in our Nvidia driver discussion forums.

This is GeForce Hot Fix driver version 397.55 that addresses the following

  • After driver installation, Device Manager may report Code 43 error on a few GTX 1060 cards models.
  • Netflix playback may occasionally stutter.
  • Added support for Microsoft Surface Book notebooks.
  • Windows 10: Driver may get removed after PC has been left idle for extended period of time.

A GeForce driver is an incredibly complex piece of software, We have an army of software engineers constantly adding features and fixing bugs. These changes are checked into the main driver branches, which are eventually run through a massive QA process and released.

Since we have so many changes being checked in, we usually try to align driver releases with a significant game or product releases. This process has served us pretty well over the years but it has one significant weakness. Sometimes a change that is important to many users might end up sitting and waiting until we are able to release the driver.

The GeForce Hotfix driver is our way to trying to get some of these fixes out to you more quickly. These drivers are basically the same as the previous released version, with a small number of additional targeted fixes. The fixes that make it in are based in part on your feedback in the Driver Feedback threads and partly on how realistic it is for us to quickly address them. These fixes (and many more) will be incorporated into the next official driver release, at which time the Hotfix driver will be taken down.

To be sure, these Hotfix drivers are beta, optional and provided as-is. They are run through a much abbreviated QA process. The sole reason they exist is to get fixes out to you more quickly. The safest option is to wait for the next WHQL certified driver. But we know that many of you are willing to try these out.

These HotFix drivers represent a lot of additional work by our engineering teams, I hope they provide value for you. We’ll try it out and see if people like the idea and want us to continue.

    Yeah, experienced the same thing.
    .31 is completely unusable for people that leave their computer on.

    When it died, only windows desktop worked - nothing else. Games would not launch, movies would not play.
    Only a reboot fixed it.

    Took me 2 days to figure out it was caused by the latest driver, rolled back and everything was fine.

    Now on the new .55 ... and so far so good, it seems to work fine.

    This explains why mining will fail after about a day of running perfectly.
