Nvidia install update - error during installation

[das3erawsdas]

Hi.
Pc:

13900K stock
2x16 GB DDR5 GSKILL 6800
Rtx 4090 Gigabyte Gaming
Aorus Elite Z790 AX
SSD KINGSTON 2TB
Seasonic 1300W PX ATX 3.0 PCIE 5.
win 11


So i was on 551.23 drivers. Yesterday i was updating to 551.52 by installation and i clicked quick express install.
Then i had error during install,something like this:
nvidia message bus for nvcontainer fail




So i closed installer ,rebooted pc and installed again,this time all fine was installed without that error.
My question is only why that error pops up first time?thx

Should i format now disk or leave it if all installed fine second time?

Not sure. Could be a lot of things, I guess. If it finished installing the second time, i'd forget about the error.

ok

This is why I never do that. I don't let such things auto download or auto install. Instead if I choose to use a different driver version I wipe it all out, reboot and install the new one. Never a problem that way.

In your case I would still maybe do that, just to be sure it's all good

Easy ! Keep it this way . I encountered similar issues installing NVidia drivers many times , rarely though . The next install works and works flawlessly . I always do clean install and never use DDU .

ah ok thx

its fine to use ddu
it clears out way more stuff than nvidia 'clean install'
removing all traces of old drivers, and can disable windows from trying to install any drivers
so when you install the desired driver its never replaced when windows thinks it needs an update

Ah ok thx for information.

Format?

Just DDU wipe everything nvidia and reboot.

I have DDU instructions on my Steam Profile in page#1 of Ccmments section at bottom.

[das3erawsdas]

ok

try to always do a clean install. I only install studio drivers but from time to time, I get lazy and instead install the new driver without removing the old.

let me tell you from experience that sooner or later, you will encounter issues. maybe something feels sluggish or maybe something crashes.

Same response to your other 9999697858964598076875 threads about a 1 off error. Bugs happen. There are thousands of things running at any 1 time. Something interacts at a wrong time in the wrong way can cause a random bug. Could do the exact same a million times and it not happen again.

Or Bit flips... Like I've said before look it up. Planes and space craft have multiple systems and error correction specifically for dealing with bitflips general personal hardware doesn't

And once again..if it only happens once it's a one off, move on. It's only an issue if it is happening repeatedly, then and ONLY then do you need to investigate.

Happens once = Move on with your life
Happens repeatedly = investigate it

oki thx
