If I understand well, you did upgrade nvidia drivers then your station did not boot after that ? And motherboard bios as been corrupted ? Is that what happenned ?
And starting in safe mode (shortcuts when computer is booting) is no longer avalaible ?
I have the opposite view. If I can upgrade, I will do it. As a rule, it makes your PC or software better and your PC more secure. But of course, not if I’m doing an important job. Then I wait.
Intel I7 - RTX 5060 8GB, and I had exactly the same issue, after installing the latest Studio Driver 616.56. Reverting back to the previous Studio Driver 610.88, resolved the issue.
Wonder how long for a fix fron DXO as I doubt Nvidia will do it. I expect the problem will be coded in to PL10 by now that also will need fixing!
It’s very possible that this is an nVidia problem and not a DxO problem. That’s happened before. Time will tell.
Not always. Sometime it is good for your software, often it does nothing sensible, and sometime (very rare) it creates glitches that need to be debugged.
My fear us it was caused by their update but do you see them doing a fix? With PL 10 due its not going to get a good start relying on Nvidia doing a fix and I suspect its going to be DXO having to work round ut again
If there’s a real bug on a driver release, better to DxO to say not to use these version and wait the next one than make tricky things to get around the problem. If it is some change in handling things, then DxO will have to make the move anyway.
Correct, no boot options, goes straight into BIOS as no Boot Options available.

I can only export in Compatibility mode since installing the 616.56 driver. Works fine, but maximum performance is desired.
This is now worse for me. All was better than partly cloudy using compatibility mode, but now that does not work either. I’m running Windows, and after the August update immediately noticed issues, as did many using Nvidia. It is more fun to blame Microsoft, and in this case it is likely accurate.
@Frank.Levermann and all,
just checked, the latest available studio driver for my GPU NVidia RTX 4070 12GB still is version 610.88.
So … no “provocation” test on my part.
There are not many rules with no exceptions….
Keeping Windows, and probably also MAC OS, and other programs updated secure your computer from many known vulnerabilities used by with bad intent. And normally other problems in the apps you run on your computer are improved for the better.
We’ve posted an official notice about this here: NVIDIA driver 616.56 — Do not update to this driver
Indeed IF driver CVSS score is high, this can be an improvment so this can be a reason to upgrade.
Same trouble here with EVGA 3090 FTW.
Solution : Uninstall with Display Driver Uninstaller (https://www.wagnardsoft.com/) with the physics and sound drivers too.
reinstall nvidia 610.88 and all is good after restart.
I have also a RTX 5060 Ti 16GB with driver 610.88, PL 9.11 and i9 gen11, no such problem. I do not install driver 616.56, too youg one…
I even downgraded to version 610.88, but with no success—the export still hangs without throwing any error whenever I use the denoising feature.
It would be highly beneficial if DxO implemented a built-in diagnostic or troubleshooting tool under the ‘Help’ menu. Right now, it takes hours of trial and error with different drivers just to figure out what is wrong. A quick automated check to flag known driver issues would be a massive help for the community.
There’s a general problem with 616.56 but if you have problems with 610.88 there’s a specific(to you) problem. I’ve not upgraded yet and 610.88 works without problems(RTX 4090).
Rebooting didn’t help here. Just rolled back to 610.88 and I can export again.
