    Hi Brad,

    Thank you for reaching Microsoft Community. I understand that you are experiencing issues with your Surface Laptop Studio after updating the NVIDIA driver.

    To answer your question, based on the Surface Laptop Studio update history - Microsoft Support, the latest officially released NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop GPU is the version 30.0.15.1215. We do not also recommend installing the updates directly from NVIDIA website since the most updated driver may have not yet been tested and approved for Surface.

    Based on the information you provided, it seems that the updated NVIDIA driver may have caused some issues on your device. There could be several reasons why this happened, such as compatibility issues or incorrect installation. To troubleshoot the issue, please uninstall the current NVIDIA driver from your device. To do this, go to Device Manager, locate the NVIDIA graphics card, right-click on it, and select "Uninstall device." Make sure to select the option to delete the driver software for this device.

    If still the issue persists, try installing the msi driver package for your Surface Laptop Studio from this page: Download Surface Laptop Studio Drivers and Firmware. from Official Microsoft Download Center

    Let me know how it goes.

    Kind regards,
    Marrion

    Hi Brad,

    Thank you for the response. Regarding with your question on how to reinstall the driver again in a proper way, you can use the msi file from the page we suggested on the previous response which is this: Download Surface Laptop Studio Drivers and Firmware. from Official Microsoft Download Center

    Please check also Barb Bowman's answer wherein she had been using the NVIDIA Studio driver version 546.01 and had been running smoothly.

    Kind regards,

    Hi Brad,

    I'm a Surface MVP and Surface engineering told me quite some time ago it was fine to install the Nvidia Studio drivers on the Laptop Studio. I've been using them all along. I'm not a gamer, so I don't know how well these will perform.
