-->GeForce drivers 364.47 are causing catastrphic errors<--

Following a storm of error reports, Nvidia has pulled GeForce drivers v364.47 from general release. Malfunctions range from your basic stuttering to black screens, blue screens and crashes that leave you stuck in infinite boot loops. Rather ominously, the odd member on the GeForce forums has been requesting warranty advice. I'll wager that the Nvidia office resembles one of the nastier planes of hell around now.
"Initial investigation suggests the issue was related to doing an "Express" installation," Nvidia said in a statement. "If you happen to have a pending installation of 364.47, we recommend that you do not install it and either use the new 364.51 beta version or wait for the WHQL certified version."
If you have them installed already, I'd recommend rolling back whether or not you've had problems. Nothing ruins a day like having to perform a fresh OS install with no Windows 10 back-up.

Thanks for the heads up...and I will check my driver when I get home, as I have been have my screen go black, but yet I can still hear the game that I am in.  I then have to reboot...so, it may be a driver issue.

I always wait some time to update my drivers, just in case something like this happens. An official release doesn't mean that it is bug free. Always wait to update, is my motto.

Thanks Silent, just updated mine to 364.51. Now I know why my game play has been so bad lately. That's my story and sticking to it!
