NVIDIA Posts GeForce 442.01 Hotfix Drivers

btarunr · Jan 17, 2020

NVIDIA late Thursday released the GeForce 442.01 Hotfix driver. A hotfix driver is that which is pushed out to correct glaring bugs with the driver immediately, and tend to have much shorter change-logs than beta or WHQL releases. The driver fixes a bug with "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare" streaming using StreamLabs OBS randomly stopping. Also fixed is a bug with "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Blood and Wine," where a game-crash is observed in a specific cutscene. Lastly a minor stutter in SLI machines with G-Sync enabled has been fixed. The driver is otherwise identical to GeForce 441.87.

huh? This is a driver problem. This game came out in 2015.

Hmm, it was not listed on the NVCleanstall for some reason. So I went to check and 442.xx is unlisted on geforce.com / nvidia.com. Did something happen with it?

I hate playing CoD MW when someone is streaming... It borks the game for everyone else... Maybe this will fix that too????

Hotfix drivers seldom get listed on geforce.com.

You'll find them in the geforce forums:
