PSA: Update your Drivers Immediately

ModAttysu The Poro··3 votes·468 views

And my god please don't update them while in a game.

I've been having constant driver issues, and I ended up reinstalling my drivers with a clean install, just to see if MAYBE it was a driver problem. But even so, ALWAYS UPDATE YOUR DRIVERS. I usually do, and did, but some people don't, then whine when they constantly blue screen cause they have drivers from fuckin 2014.

Please. [slayer-jinx-unamused]

Nah, I had the driver problem too, I looked it up and it turns out that when windows 10 does its updates (which you can't control the time it does them) it started fighting with my Nvidia graphics card. Ping spikes for 2 secs, screen goes blue then rainbow blacks out then completely normal. Hasn't happened as of late though.

[slayer-pantheon-popcorn] I knew when I read it that's what was happening XD

I thought my new computer was dying like a week after I installed windows 10 since the above was happening literally twice every ARAM game. (I steered clear of ranked and rift for obvious reasons).

How did you fix it? Cause I constantly get errors of different kinds by blue screens. :/

IDK it just kinda stopped happening about 2ish weeks ago... Didn't do anything. Do you have a nvidia graphics card too?

Mine's a Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600 but I get the "nvidia graphics card has stopped functioning" popup when the screen was freaking out. Maybe windows 10 patched for some cards and not others yet?

Edit: I ctrl F--> pasted your driver name but couldn't find it on the list.
