so i just installed a new mobo and possessor. now, dx10/11 will not launch, dx9 works fine though
gives me appcrash errors pointing at nvwgf2umx.dll

my rig

fx4350
asrock 970m pro3
evga gtx 960

i tried everything, from multiple versions of nvidias drivers, .net, vcredist, dxSDK
my gpu is working fine still posting good numbers in furmark

you guys have any ideas?
and yes i installed the latest bios
 
well did you try a older driver to see ?? are you properly installing or uninstalling the drivres ?? just because its the newer latest driver don't mean iots the better driver ?

I like to review the drivers release notes to insure nothing has changed in any way or to see what new known issues or resolved issues that may affect install or overall use and performance

may now have something known that I may not want to install the driver ??

googling that around '' nvwgf2umx.dll crash'' looks common to and a few post around on it ?? most with bf4

i've tried the last 3 WHQL releases, clean install every time
 
well that dll maybe part of the program or game install package as well ? so try to reinstall them if there like crap you get from something like steam you may of got a bad or corrupt down load or file ??

did you run this ??

so dxdaig looked normal untill i tried to switch to 64bit version, then nvwgf2umx.dll crashed
 
well is it crashing with everything or just a game ?? like I seen a lot of that bf4 with this issue ?? like I said you may of gotten a bad file of that dll that installed with a game ??

just uninstall the program and hope it uninstall the dll as well along with it ??
I assume your using 64 bit 7 ??

crashes with planetside 2, dragonage 3, windows experience index, dxdiag(64bit)
 
ok I look all around in my win7-64 files and that nvwgf2umx.dll is not there so its not part of windows so it came in from something eles you installed

now was it the cards driver or a program ??

you can try this if you want ? uninstall the driver reboot and get back on the windows default standard vga driver as it should now be

then go in to your hard drive and windows file then sys32 scrool down to see if that nvwgf2umx.dll is there if so deleat it

the go back and do the same in the wow 64

then reinstall the driver and boot back to desktop on the NVidia driver check to see if that nvwgf2umx.dll is back in place and now working properly ??

up to you on all that with this amd its the atidxx32dll I got popping up from time to time with internet explore 11 ??? don't do it with ie 10-9-or8 just IE11

if nothing else just do a custom install of the driver and don't install anything but the cards driver and control panel exclude all that extra crapware to see if one of them was at issue ??

don't know ?? check some of thes things out

http://answers.ea.com/t5/Battlefield-4/failure-nvwgf2umx-dll/td-p/3377169/page/4

thing is today with all the steam ,origin clients your forced to run then the cards drivers got all them crutch programd like shadow play - gforce exp. and all that crap theres just so many thing running becides the driver and the game/program

its almost like a card today don't work with just its driver and needs all this stuff to do so ??? not telling where the issue lies just too many unnessary things running all at once in my opinion

is it the game client ?? the driver ?? the game ?? the crapware ?? who knows did steam force a download or update that caused this ??

crazy
