Nvidia hotfix driver addresses Doom Eternal crashes

Following id Software’s RTX update for Doom Eternal earlier this week, some GeForce graphics card users began experiencing driver-related crashes. Fortunately for anyone experiencing this issue, a hotfix driver has now been made available.

Earlier this week, Nvidia released the 471.11 driver, which enabled support for ray-tracing and DLSS in Doom Eternal. For some people, this driver would cause Doom Eternal to crash to desktop, an issue that has now been corrected in a 471.22 hotfix driver.

The hotfix driver also fixes a few other issues, including League of Legends failing to launch, a mouse cursor colour error when using certain DSC monitors in HDR mode, an HDMI audio playback issue and an issue causing some users to have their resolution locked at 640×480.

If you’ve faced any of those issues, then the 471.22 hotfix driver should help. You can download the driver, HERE.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
