NVIDIA Bug Causes Win 10 Blue Screen Of Death

Sharing is Caring!

There is a known issue with NVIDIA drivers causing the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) on Windows 10 systems. The problem is linked to the latest GPU drivers from Release 555 and later, which are incompatible with older CPUs that lack the POPCNT instruction. This incompatibility leads to a BSOD loop upon restarting the computer after driver installation.

NVIDIA has acknowledged the issue and provided guidance on how to check CPU compatibility to avoid this problem. If your CPU does not support the POPCNT instruction, it’s recommended to stick with older driver versions to prevent the BSOD.
