Windows 11 crash + Nvidia driver on RTX5090 March 18, 2026, 11:39 p.m.

We have had confirmation from Microsoft that this is now indeed fixed.

"The fix went out in KB5077179, OS Build 28000.157. It rolled out over time starting mid-Feb, but should be generally available to everyone now. It specially covers the bug in the VirtualMemory allocator in dxgmms2.sys"

You can read more here:

We have tested internally and can confirm we no longer get the crash.

Thanks all for your patience

An update of sorts:
We are in communication with Microsoft, and they have identified a problem in dxgmm2.sys and have a fix in the works, but have yet to supply a date/KB. We'll update here once we know more.
Thanks for your patience.

even KB5078127 crashes for me
attached is a repro kit that we've passed on to Microsoft. Are you able to repro the issue with this?
