Nvidia confirms it is investigating RTX 50-series BSOD and black screen troubles, no timeline for a fix

RTX 5090 HERO.

Crashes and instability issues relating to RTX 50-series GPUs continue to rage on, and Nvidia still doesn't have a fix ready for the public. Manuel provided an update on the Nvidia forums, noting that the RTX 50 series issues are still being investigated. The Nvidia staff member clarified that they don't know if the fixes will arrive in driver form or in VBIOS form.

The update addressed users in the Nvidia 572.47 driver feedback thread complaining about the incessant black screen and crashing issues occurring on the RTX 5090, RTX 5080, and even some RTX 40-series GPUs. To everyone's disappointment, the latest 572.47 drivers (which enable RTX 5070 Ti support) arrived with incredibly few bug fixes, only one, in fact, relating to driver stability issues when waking up a monitor from sleep mode.
