Dear NiceHash Miners!

NVIDIA released a new driver version on May 24th. NVIDIA 512.95 driver do not work with the 100% LHR unlock.

We tested the unlock with the latest drivers on all verified miners, also included in NiceHash Miner. NiceHash QuickMiner (Excavator), NBMiner NanoMiner, and LolMiner.

If you are already on the NVIDIA driver version 512.95, then for now, we suggest downgrading to NVIDIA driver version 512.77 where the unlock still works.

Notice: When downgrading GPU drivers, make sure to delete the old drivers first. Follow this guide to fully remove the old drivers first.
