Thumbs down warning nvidia driver 190.62

again my hardware is under attack . this time its nvidia drivers its self .. i found out by pure luck that the driver is locking the gpu fan at the max speed that it would reach while gaming
then it refuse to release it down unless the pc is restarted ..

ahh right . you need to see to believe . ok i have the screens right here :









this is a screen with 190.62 locking the fan and the other screen shows 191.07 working normally .. good then its not my bad settings i guess .

that driver has been there for a while i hop it didnt worn out my fan ..

Weird...have you out of curiosity tried Nvidia Performance in your control panel to see if you can slow it down?

I had issues with 190.62. I did not notice the fan issue but I had random white boxes appearing randomly in games. I uninstalled and let Windows install whatever version it thought was best and all was well.

I upgraded a few days ago to 191.07 and I have not had any problems.

no i didnt think of that .. at first i didnt know what is causing it because of that error
i had with far cry 2 i thought something was damaged then i suspected
if its riva tuner so i installed evga precision and it gave same results

first thing i thought of after that is changing the driver because i remembered everything
was ok with the driver before it .
