Download the Nvidia GeForce 456.71 hotfix driver, as released by NVIDIA. This release fixes issues black screen and GSYNC, Fortnite crashes with RTX, and Divinity: Original Sin 2 Hardware-accelerated GPU Scheduling.

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 optimized for the best gameplay on day-1. We have a discussion thread open on this driver here in our Nvidia driver discussion forums. For those that wonder, the DCH driver is a Microsoft DCH (Declarative Componentized Hardware supported apps) driver, and refers to a new Windows 10 driver package preinstalled by OEMS implementing the Microsoft Universal Driver paradigm. While the base core component files remain the same, the way DCH drivers are packaged differs from previous Legacy (Standard) drivers.

GeForce Hotfix display driver version 456.71 is based on our latest Game Ready Driver 456.55. The hotfix addresses the following issues:

Launching a game in full-screen mode may trigger a black screen on adaptive sync monitors if G-SYNC is enabled
[Fortnite] Game may experience a crash when using in-game RTX Shadows/Reflection
[Divinity: Original Sin 2 Definitive Edition] Enabling Hardware-accelerated GPU Scheduling results in lower frame rate

With the 456.71 driver, the "Configure Surround, PhysX" entry in Control Panel (Standard driver) vanished after reboot (it was there before reboot just after driver install) after installing this Driver on my GeForce GTX 1080 (Laptop). On my Desktop with GeForce RTX 2080 Ti it's still there, though.

The problem didn't exist with the 456.55 driver or earlier for me.

Update: It seems this "Configure Surround, PhysX" entry seems to be vanishing after some reboots for me and re-appears after other reboots. It's really odd. Has anybody else experienced this?
If you run GPU-Z is physX have checkmark?
Maybe run the standalone physX installer if that is the case.
I had that happen once and it fixed the missing checkmark but not sure with NVCP as I never open that tab normally (no physX games, except BL2 now that I think of it)

@ManuelG
I'm using my Windows 7 PC to game on a Samsung Q9FN TV connected directly to the TV with a DP to HDMI converter. (Club3D CAC 1080).
Display modes have been separated into groups of 4K x 2K, 1080p and PC for some time, but since 1080p and 1440p modes have been included in the 4K x 2K group I can no longer use 120Hz, the maximum presented is 60Hz.
The only modes that now present 120Hz are 1920x1200 and 1680x1050 or below, none of these are placed in the 4K x 2K group.

I was able to use 120Hz with 1080p and 1440p some time ago with older drivers and since then hoped it would get fixed some day, but there has been no positive change.
Can this be fixed please so 120Hz mode is available at 1440p and 1080p.

Thanks.

ps I also used to get the 1080p 120Hz option through my AVR to the TV, connected via HDMI. (AVR is Denon X4400H)
The 1080p 120Hz option is gone there also, it starts at 1680x1060 res or lower.

pps Gfx card is a 1080ti.

Launching a game in full screen mode may trigger a black screen on adaptive sync monitors if G-SYNC is enabled

Thanks for hotfix!
