Anyone else having problems with full screen settings in games?

A load of my games now have to be set to windowed borderless now, they refuse to open in full screen since 381.65

Go to nVidia Control Panel, go to Change Resolution menu, under option number three (3), choose "Use NVIDIA colour settings".

Go to Windows Settings, go to "System" options, under the "Display" menu, turn OFF (Disable) HDR and advanced colour.

Restart the computer (not necessary, but just to be safe).

I had this issue with the Creators Update even with the previous driver. After doing the settings above, it fixed the problem.

Hope that helps.

Now, I know the reason why I have'n been able to load i1Profiler Pro. Windows Keeps saying 'something prevents it to load'.

These drivers do not fix the boot to black screen for me. In fact, they may be worse then the previous 381.65 drivers. I now have to unplug and replug the HDMI cable to get the image. Also, this driver and the previous 381.65 defaulted to

Output Color Format: YCbCr???
Output Color Depth: 12 bit

I have to click the, Use Nvidia Color Settings, and set RGB, 8 bit.

My monitor is a Samsung UN48JS9000. Didn't have any issues at all, till these drivers and the new "Windows 10 Creators Update".



I have the same problem with a Samsung UN60JS7090, the TV is the problem. It reports it can do YCbCr422 12-bit color. I have a PS4 Pro and it also autodetects YCbCr422 12-bit when enabling HDR in games. At least we can set it to use Nvidia settings, lol.

Edit: typed yuv instead of YCbCr

Thanks, but I don't have either of those options in NVCP or Settings/Display

In NVCP I only have "Highest 32bit" available
