I have asus rog gaming laptop with gtx 1050 with the old driver in version 441.93 and when i try to stream it wont let me unless i update it to a new version, i've tried streaming with the latest version but eventually i get a bluescreen, since then I have rolled back to the old version (441.93) it worked fine no bluescreen. Now i want to start streaming again, but ofcourse i have to update it to the latest version, and the latest version again made my laptop get a bluescreen. Is there a way or an update to the drivers but not the latest 560 version that is able to stream/record without (eventually or immediately) giving me a bluescreen? Or do i have to change my broadcasting software to something else?

(Sorry if it sounds confusing for you to read, english is not my first language) thank you.

i have the same problem

at the moment i find only 2 solution:
1. use different encoder, in my case i use x264 instead, because i found that its better to use it for streaming anyway
2. use older obs version that wont ask for new driver to use nvenc encoder

i changed to solution 2 because using x264 burden my already "overheated" cpu.
