Sadly, I had my first CTD with this driver. I came from 576.88, uninstalled it using DDU, and installed 581.80 via the NVIDIA app. Performance is great—no stutters, everything’s smooth
 until my MSFS2024 froze during landing on RWY 09L at LFPG. Just at the moment of touchdown, the sim froze, and then I received this error message:

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 Your graphics device has encountered a problem and the application will exit. Error: DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_RESET (0x887a0007) This error could be due to either of: - a driver fault - an application bug - graphics card overheating - graphics card overclocking For more information see: https://flightsimulator.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/6422969348508

My specs are: AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D, RTX 5080 64Gb RAM.

If you removed your NVIDIA driver with DDU, there shouldn’t be any NVIDIA apps left on your system. When DDU is set up correctly, it wipes out the driver and all NVIDIA-related software.

DDU also clears your nvidia cache as well. It also clears your registry so if you use the ShowDlssIndicator mod you’ll need to redo that. You may still want to do a win disk cleanup to clear the DX cache.

Are you Undervolting?

Nvidia should optimize the next driver version especially for FS2024 !
