itman 1,630 Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 BTW - in regards to that nVidia driver caused blue screen, nVidia has stopped supporting Win 7 for sometime: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/software/nvidia-is-dropping-support-for-windows-7-and-windows-8-drivers/ .

"Time to give up that Win 7 ghost." They have only dropped win 7 and 8 from the latest GPU series, Mine is a 980ti and still supported, Not that i have any new games installed So there is little if anything to be gained from the latest and greatest drivers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nvidia is only issuing driver updates for Win 7 for critical driver security issues and that will end next year. Edited May 16 by itman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itman 1,630 Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 You might also want to review this list of Win 7 security vulnerabilities: https://www.cvedetails.com/vulnerability-list/vendor_id-26/product_id-17153/Microsoft-Windows-7.html . Microsoft has patches for these but they are only available for Win 7 Pro+ extended support installations. Tonyset 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonyset 4 Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 Sorry if I intrude, but how do you use an antivirus on an obsolete operating system. It's like locking a car and leaving the windows open. regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
