Need to know the correct version of nvlddmkm.sys in system32/drivers folder for those using Win 10. I have 2 such files and I don't know which one to use.

Like to have the file size and date.

Many thanks.

u got display warning about nvlddmkm and sudden reboot PC on log event?

Critical error as in event viewer.

Minidump file says cause of shutdown is nvlddmkm.sys

same thing happen to me while leave my pc overnight idle to torrent and windows sudden restart, I wonder windows 10 update these days bring more bug or is it my GPU need to be replace, I have latest updates drive for all hardware. last time update also cause problem kernel-power critical error turn out to be power balance setting and I set it to high performance and it didn't go sudden restart when idle. now this sudden restart happen again is all about display "nvlddmkm"

What I know is, to correct a faulty driver, need to uninstall that driver first and then reinstall. Just updating the driver will not solve the problem.

Still in the mist of solving this sudden shutdown problem.

P/S If you are running Win 10, cam you do a search to find out the folders, size and date of the nvlddmkm.sys?

I don't think nvlddmkm got corrupt, but other might cause this driver stop working after windows latest update, even if try problem still come back

Thanks.

Good infor on the 1st link.

On the 2nd link, that was what I tried a few days ago when I first got this shutdown problem and unfortunately, it has not solved my problem.


P/S In Win 10, can select deferred update where you will get the updates months later. Good, by then they would have tested and rectified most of the bugs! I have set mine for deferred update now.
