It seems that the new nVidia Game Ready driver is not compatible with Guild Wars 2 – if i update my driver to the latest version, the game becames weird, you can see transparent lines going down from the top to the bottom of the screen. If i remove it, and install an older version of the driver, the game becomes normal again.

I have nVidia Geforce GTX 950m graphic card, changing the settings ingame doesn’t fix it.

No new issue, seems to be a regular problem with the mobile series. E. g., when the Battlefront Beta was released, I updated my drivers (else you couldn’t even start the Beta). Battlefront ran quite well, but I couldn’t play GW2 anymore. So I’m still running the 331.82 drivers on my GTX660m since newer ones don’t seem to be compatible with GW2.
Others had similar problems aswell back then: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/support/Issues-with-latest-GeForce-drivers-358-50/first#post5611813

Not sure though wether a fix for this is even possible on A.Nets side or if it’s something nVidia should take care of.

I have 362.00 on one computer and 359.06 on other and at least both of those drivers works without problems.

That’s good to hear, unfortunatly you don’t say what graphic cards you have in use. Do you talk about desktop cards or laptop cards (aka m series)?
