Thanks very much. Finally got CUDA 11.2 support. Nevertheless, I find 465.42 causes MS Flight Simulator (2020) starts with black screen. This could be caused by WDDM 3.0 supported, not likely, though. Could anyone tell me where to report the problem? It’s not for this forum obviously.

Brightness controls no longer work on my device since updating to 465.42. Everything else seems to work fine, e.g. Cuda toolkit 11.2. I am on Windows build 21301 with an HP ZBook studio x360 G5. Any suggestions? (tried disabling and enabling device driver, and of course restarting).

I installed this new driver 465.42, and when I’m trying to run nvidia-smi.exe in powershell, it crashes nvidia-smi.exe right away.
I thought that this could be some old driver issue, so I tried install driver again, but this time as a clean installation, didn’t work either.
Is there way to fallback on older version?

I also have the latest Docker Desktop with WSL2 Integration for the GPU!
### 2. Steps to reproduce the issue
When I launch this, it works:
`docker run --rm --gpus all nvidia/cuda:11.0-cudnn8-devel-ubuntu18.04`
BUT, when I launch this:
`docker run --rm --gpus all nvidia/cuda:11.1.1-cudnn8-devel-ubuntu18.04`
I get this:
`docker: Error response from daemon: OCI runtime create failed: container_linux.go:370: starting container process caused: process_linux.go:459: container init caused: Running hook #0:: error running hook: exit status 1, stdout: , stderr: nvidia-container-cli: requirement error: unsatisfied condition: cuda>=11.1, please update your driver to a newer version, or use an earlier cuda container: unknown.`

How do I roll back to 465.21 from 465.42? I do not have a roll back driver option in device manager. Trying to fix my issue of brightness controls no longer working.

I’ve installed this driver on Windows 10 pro preview (build 21318.1000) On Lenovo Legion 7 with GTX 2070 Super to try out WSL2 feature.
Here are the issues I’ve encountered:
immediately after install the brightness controls no longer work
after restart the laptop display goes black and no longer works (the external display on hdmi seems fine)
The only solution was to revert to the driver version provided by lenovo (457.20), but GPU on WSL2 no longer works. Any suggestions on what might go wrong?
Just installed 465.42 on build 21318.1000 using an RTX2080. Unfortunately I am encountering severe screen flickering in the top half of my screen after installing the driver. Rolling back resolves this issue.

İnstalling CUDA GEFORCE driver caused a black screen blinking on the top of my screen. Is there any other working driver available?
With this driver and WIP 21327.1000 my 2080ti does not shown in nvidia-smi anymore:
Also i have an issue with previously woking container.
Is there a reason why CUDA drivers are currently unavailable when I navigate to https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda/wsl/download ?

This is an incredible move: delete old driver and do not release a new one.
If somebody can share the previous version please do

Hi, I’m new here. Just wondering if this is normal for Nvidia, to delete any means of downloading previous drives
Maybe the old driver had a serious problem that they are now trying to fix. Still happy that I am not the only one waiting for the Download :-)!
