Do NOT install the new 4644 driver - Includes a FIRMWARE update

[lorvar]

This is a total disaster of a release. Does anything really get QA'd before releasing it?

My Bifrost A770 continuously ramps up and down the fan, I have ZERO control of it other that the lights.

Davinci Resolve freezes on export at the 71% mark then continues to finish. A clip that rendered off in 18 sec, now takes 24 sec.

My third monitor has stopped working.

I am severely pissed about the fact that I couldn't opt out of the FIRMWARE update. I only wanted a driver update. Is anyone at Intel going to buy me a new functioning card since the firmware ruined it and I can't work anymore?

Irresponsible.

Why aren't drivers on the support page from before September?

Ok I fixed it.

Deleting EVERYTHING in C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\PredatorBifrost, not just the Settings.json file, did the trick.

Not happy I spent 2 hours finding the solution.

Well. 4 weeks after I reported this, I see a new update. I wasn't going to even try it after reading all the new issues, but changed my mind because misery loves company. 

I have the Acer Bifrost A770 16GB. I am happy to report that I have full control of my fans through the Predator Bifrost App again. Brought it back to 20% and runs at 1000 rpm again.

All monitors work

Davinci Resolve runs 100% again

Thank you for your efforts, team.

My card partially died yesterday. The fans and LEDs malfunctioned and the GPU overheated. Task manager said it was at 95C when I manually shut the system down. It still output video after rebooting, but it cannot cool itself. Warranty support claim created. My backup EVGA GTX 970 has a purpose again. 🤦
