NVIDIA "purple screen" issues (387.68) ["...387.92 fixes everything"]
-
You guys all mean 385, right? I see no newer drivers than the 385 series... Anyway, I still have the problem in 385.74!
I uninstalled all NVIDIA stuff including GeForce Experience (since it keeps automatically updating to the latest broken driver version all the time) and installed the 385.41 drivers. So far no problems! Will report back if it changes.
The bug also affects Windows' own Night Shift, making it look wrong in the same way as f.lux - so it is definitely not a f.lux bug.
@Nanabell Reinstalling as you had suggested only worked until the very next reboot for me!

I'm still also seeing the problem with 387.78 :(
-
I think what all these people forgot to mention is that they're using the Insider Builds of Windows 10 ;)
For me on the current stable branch of Windows (build 15063.608) and NVidia driver 387.78 everything was OK, I got this driver by switching to Insider Build "Just fixes, apps and drivers".
Today, since the RTM candidade was released (16299.15) I updated to it and with f.lux turned on everything looks like yellowish-piss to me, not purple. :(

@Shoonay
Im on 16299 as well, but I think its directly linked with grahpic driver, however I'm on AMD (17.9.3 [23.20.768.12]) not NVIDIA.
At worst it can be just combination of both (I can confirm it has exactly the same issue with Windows' "Night Light")
Will revert to 17.3 and see if that fixes it. -
I can confirm reverting to Radeon 17.7.2 (the recommended version) fixes the issue completely.
-
Hmmm, perhaps it has something to do with the driver model?
DirectX Diagnostic Tool showed this driver's (387.68) WDDM as 2.2 on the previous (15063.608) Windows build, while on 16299.15 it's WDDM 2.3 so maybe it's that.
Too lazy to downgrade the driver and check, guess we will have to wait for 16299 a new graph driver to officially come out... -
Driver updated to 387.87 and problem still not solved.
-
Had 387.78 drivers and Windows Insider, reverting to 385.69 fixed the issue.
-
I set the output color format of NVIDIA on the control panel to YCbCr444 and then back to RGB, and the purple screen disappeared. but after rebooting it is necessary to repeat
-
Driver 387.92 fixes everything! :D

NVIDIA drivers version 387.92 also resolved this issue for me. I am also on an Insider Windows build (release preview mind you).

Currently getting the Purple haze when I have my mini USB monitor on. It's a DoubeSight DS-U70 monitor that runs off the DisplayLink USB monitor driver.
NVIDIA 23.21.13.8813: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 (20171027)
DisplayLink 8.4.2250.0: DisplayLink USB Device (20171019)Flux works just fine with the DisplayLink off but the moment I turn it on purple grey mess.
