4. Update GPU drivers to the latest
It turns out that you may anticipate having to deal with this problem if you’re using outdated GPU drivers that aren’t designed for VR gaming. Installing the most recent graphics card driver and related physics module has been reported to work by many customers who have had this issue. It has been verified that this works with both AMD and NVIDIA GPUs. The best approach to do this is to make sure you’re installing the most recent driver version for your GPU model from AMD or Nvidia by using the dedicated application (from AMD or Nvidia). To make sure you’re using the most recent GPU drivers, choose one of the sub-guides below based on whether you’re on the Nvidia or AMD side:
4.1. Update the Nvidia GPU
If you suspect that your GPU driver fleet may be corrupt, Nvidia advises that you take the time to carefully delete each remaining driver file before installing the most recent version. This will ensure that the installation of the new GPU drivers runs smoothly by briefly switching to the generic driver. To update to the most recent Nvidia GPU for your specific model, follow the instructions below:
4.2. Update the AMG GPU
However, if you have an AMD graphics card, you should absolutely use the cleanup tool before attempting to upgrade your current driver. By doing so, you can be sure to delete every trace of the previous driver installation and reinstall it from scratch. After doing this, you can use the Auto-Detect tool to safely download the most recent GPU version. The complete process steps are listed below:
