[solved] min nvidia driver version required

PostWed Feb 10, 2021 8:24 pm

What is the oldest version compatible with resolve 17? I've upgraded the last available today and I lost the second monitor (black screen). I have a gtx 970. I can't find a studio driver for this one.

I'm using 461.40 without any problems on that card.

After several trials, I managed to see the second monitor back by selecting "clean installation" in nvidia installer. But after set the resolution to 4k, everything goes black again. It's a Zotac GTX 970. according to old post on tom's hardware it's an issue with win10 and zotac 970... I will try again tomorrow. Im still try to understand why it's not working at all at the moment. Thanks for telling me it's working for you, do you have a zotac? If Yes maybe it's me the problem.

I switch between Zotac and EVGA, not sure which the 970 is.

But I do run only a single UHD monitor. Maybe try that until you can upgrade the GPU.

Also, there is no Studio driver for 900 series cards or earlier.

Thanks for trying to help me. After investigation, it seems that I can't use 4k 60Hz anymore. Only 4k 30Hz for the second monitor. That's completly weird because it perfectly worked on previous driver. Please admin the topic is solved
