after installing ur last Nvidia driver 535.230.02 some games are not starting via Steam.
I deinstalled it and re-installed it but no better results.... really bad...

#

some weeks before i played for example "Ifsunsets", and now it is not starting.

Are your games on ext4 format or windows hard drive format? Try the green recommended Nvidia driver from the Driver Manager in your start menu.

The latest Nvidia driver recently updated is 570. I had some issues with video playback until I installed the kernel update which came a day later.

I solved this. I took the 550.144 driver instead of Repo driver 535.xx
Now, everything Is Running again and better.

Pls check Mint Team, to get Nvidia Driver more earlier than today it is.
I tooks too long between ur Repo driver and Nvidia releases.
Thank you.

good job on figuring it out. Driver manager in Mint shows version 570 for me though.

I took the original driver from Repo. It was 535. and the 550 ist enough for me. It works fine.

#

I have LM 22.1 as OS.

Ok. Second make sure you have performance mode turned off for nvidia driver.

#

And you are using the recommended driver.
