NVIDIA GeForce Game Ready Driver 576.28 Discussion

@relawx @Deelee6800
With Nvidia driver 572.16/572.42/47/60/70/75/83,576.28, Nvidia app and DX12 selected in MSFS 2020 a CTD won’t occur.

However, with DX11 selected in MSFS 2020, using the same latest Nvidia driver and Nvidia app, a CTD will occur.

Until Nvidia fixes the application and Asobo MSFS 2020/2024, please check what happens if you select DX12 instead of DX11 by manually editing cfg file.

To do this, you need to edit usercfg.opt file and modify the line
PreferD3D12 0

Change the number 0 to 1

and save the changes.


OR

If you need Nvidia app, make sure to select DX12 instead of DX11 in Nvidia app and the profile for MSFS 2020.
Nvidia app > graphics > program settings tab
Then select msfs 2020 and click optimize button.


OR

If Nvidia app installed go to:
c:\ProgramData\NVIDIA
delete folder named NGX
