This is why Microsoft getting rid of actual hardware QA teams was a very bad idea, Now they do most of their testing through virtual machines which is nowhere near as good... all to save a few million per year which to them is nothing.

Profit above quality seems to be the norm with all companies now sadly.

Thanks Microsoft? Remember this: https://www.shacknews.com/article/51972/ms-nvidia-drivers-caused-29

I'm actually quite enjoying 11 so far, with my 6700XT.

I've been running insider dev And beta versions of w11 for ages, and the worst Nvidia-related issue i've had is the way edge or chrome misbehave when video is playing. Crashing browser windows and driver crashes. Did it once So badly that I had to DDU the drivers and reinstall.

Other than that, it's been great.

Nvidia and browser issues has been an on and off issue for years. I would wager its more driver related than anything.



On the issue at hand however I have been using W11 on my laptop that's my mess around/spare machine. If W11 isn't working I just switch over to Ubuntu. But so far on my laptop the W11 experience has been pretty great. I'll still wait another year or two before updating my main PC.

just don't install GF Experience: the problem lies in the FrameView SDK driver.
They have released a new GFE that should fix it, but I definitely recommend using NVCleanstall and installing only drivers, physX and HDMI audio drivers if needed.
