    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

NVIDA Drivers 466.63 Issues?

Anyone having issues with NVIDA Drivers 466.63? After the update on June 3, I have had repeated freezeups with a black screen (video failing to respond then recovered on it's own) and today, another but with a BSOD. I was worried I was getting ready to have a GPU failure but no other indications occurred. I saw where end users are reporting a number of issues post 466.63. Anyone here?
 
Maybe something else (like new Windows 21H1 update?), for me no any issue with this driver.

It runs smooth as silk for me as well, just this once a day issue with the video crashing. Tests of my GPU seems to indicate it's working normally. No issues with artifacts or overheating. This issue started the day of the update. I may do a rollback and see what happens.
 
I rolled back to the previous driver set, so far so good. Nvidia's support forum is swarming with reports of the same issue I was having after 466.63. Hopefully they will get it sorted soon.
 
Verified that the rollback fixed the issues I was having. I had not run FS2020 nor DCS after doing the update to 466.63 but this sudden black screen freeze and eventual BSOD occurred during uses of opened photo viewers and/or video. For now am going to stay put on 466.47
 
I have 466.63, and I think the only time I've had an issue is when I tried to open Photos while the sim was running. Other than that, no issues. Still getting frames generally in the 25-30 range, sometimes lower with a lot of photogrammetry nearby.
