Nvidia shares Windows hotfix driver 576.66 for FC 25 crashes, browser video bugs, and more

Nvidia has been on a roll lately with its release of hotfix drivers, which are essentially emergency display driver updates meant to fix issues.. The company's GeForce RTX 5000 series graphics cards have been plagued with several issues, and these hotfixes as well as the regular GameReady driver updates, are being pushed out to clear up the software side problems.

The first hotfix was released in early March with version 572.65 that resolved black screen bootups. This was followed by another, version 572.75, that addressed clocking issues. After that, version 576.15 helped fix Windows Sleep and Modern Standby-related temperature monitoring bugs.

With the latest hotfix driver update, 576.66, Nvidia says that it has resolved a video playback bug in web browsers that can lead to red-green flashing and similar corruption of that nature. Aside from that, the driver also fixes multiple game crashes including EA Sports FC 25, and more.

Nvidia notes that the new hotfix driver is based on its latest GameReady driver 576.52. As a refresher, that driver added support for Nvidia's new RTX 5060.

The full changelog for the new hotfix driver 576.66 is given below:

• Dune: Awakening may crash during gameplay [5273568]

• EA Sports FC 25 may crash during gameplay [5251937]

• [RTX 50 series] Dragons Dogma 2 displays shadow flicker [5252205]

• [RTX 50 series] Video playback in a web browser may show brief red/green flash corruption [5241341]

• Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 may crash [5283401]

   

If you are encountering problems like the ones described above on Windows 11 or 10, you should definitely try updating the driver to the hotfix version here. In order to download the update, head over to Nvidia's official website on this page where you can also view the driver's release notes.
