Rickblade Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 Hi C.T., So far, I have been using the Vive Pro 2 since early June. Recently, I have been experiencing some BSODs (Blue Screen Of Deaths), so far 3 BSOD, when turning on the link box of Vive Pro 2. It occurs from time to time, a few seconds after (i) pushing the button of the Link Box and (ii), almost simultaneously, clicking on the Steam icon to log in. I think it might be related with starting Steam at the same time I push the button of the link box and, maybe, Steam requiring a (small) update. It's annoying because not only I need to restart the computer, but also I have to reinstall SteamVR app since after rebooting it appears on Steam as uninstalled. I am using VIVE Console 2.0.17.2 (public version), Windows 10 and I have now checked that Nvidia 471.11 driver. It is very curious, since I previously had Nvidia 471.11 driver installed, but according to your posts regarding BSODs I went back to the previous driver, 466.77, but I do not know how (and when) Nvidia 471.11 driver was reinstalled (I am pretty sure I went back to the previous driver and did not update again to 471.11). Your feedback on how to solve this issue will be highly appreciated. Meanwhile, I will again go back to the previous Nvidia driver 466.77, just to make sure. Thank you.

Rickblade Posted July 10, 2021 Author Share Posted July 10, 2021 I forgot to mention that I installed Vive Console as an application independent of Steam, in "Program Files (x86)\Vive...", not in the Steam folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.T. Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 We have open cases with Nvidia that 471.11 causes BSOD with Vive Console. I can only suggest to downgrade NV driver for now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickblade Posted July 10, 2021 Author Share Posted July 10, 2021 I installed Nvidia driver 466.77. If I have more BSODs with this driver I will let you know. I wish you could soon solve this issue with Nvidia drivers, so that we can use the latest Nvidia drivers. Thank you 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJH16 Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 I can confirm I got the same behavior on 471.11. Any word if this has been fixed since? I am installing 472.12 now but don't know if the issue is resolved yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A BSOD means that a driver entered a state it should never get in to, so there isn't really anything HTC can do about it. Some type of context switch for VR stuff in the NVidia driver is hosed. That's pretty much entirely on NVidia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
