Latest Windows 11 24/H2 Release and Graphics Issues

Ever since Win11 24H2 my RTX 3060 12gb just thinks the monitor is disconnected when the screen comes back on and my Windows all get unmaximized.

I have Intel i7-12700k with iGPU enabled and two RTX 3060 cards for dev reasons (so 3 GPUs). Will see what happens when I disable it but very annoying. Wish I never updated.

I noticed the WDDM updated which I'm guessing broke a bunch of stuff.

We experienced the same issues. Davinci Resolve 18.6 editing H.265 Quick Sync dissapeared from the preferences menu. By comparison out editing performance slowed to a crawl on custom build from Puget Systems with i9-14900k / NVIDIA RTX4090. intel and NVIDIA both were sending out multiple updates every week. So you have Win. 11 / 24H2 followed by CPU & GPU updates trying to fix a problem, yet claim nobody knows about it.

I uninstalled drivers and restored Win. 11 to previous date but still lagging compared to before.

Going to uninstall all updates back to first of Dec. 2024and turn off auto update till this is resolved.

Thanks Microsoft. . .

You could try uninstalling the last update - but not sure if a major update like Win 11 23 to Win 11 24 will allow that.

Not tried it myself as I blocked Win 11 24 H2 update when I saw all reports on this.

Not much else you can do until Microsoft wake up and issue a patch update on Win 11 24H2 to solve these GPU conflict issues

Hello 300BaudDialUp,

Welcome to the Microsoft Community.

Sorry to hear about your issue. There have been some similar user reports on the driver compatibility issues after Windows 24H2 update. How do you know that Windows 24H2 kills your iGPU? We recommend you check in the Device Manager, to see if you can still find the iGPU under the graphics device.

If you can still find the iGPU device, but you see yellow exclamation marks on it, ensure you have the latest Intel integrated graphics drivers. Microsoft might not always provide the most recent drivers through Windows Update, and downloading them directly from Intel’s website can help.

If you cannot find the corresponding device, you need to contact an after-sales support for further check on hardware issues.

For further information, you may need to contact Intel Support for more technical information on updates for your specific Intel Graphics card. You can share your computer specifications with us, and we can help you figure it out.

On the other hand, if you have an urgent need for your both GPUs, you can consider downgrading the system to a prior state before update. This can be done in Settings - Windows Update. How to uninstall a Windows update - Microsoft Support
