Razer Blade 17" (2021) RZ09-0406 Video Drivers?

I have a new Razer Blade 17 laptop with Windows 11 and all updates installed. I also installed Battlefield 2042, but I get an error that states I must have GeForce driver 471.68 or later installed (I have 471.51).

When I go to the GeForce Experience site to get the latest update, it states that I should go through my laptop OEM (Razer) for the latest driver to ensure compatibility. This is normal for laptops, but Razer has no video drivers on their support site - at least not for my laptop.

Do I just need to install the latest GeForce Experience version, or wait for Razer to release an update? Curious. Would like to play the damn game.

I just recently re-installed windows 10 on my new Razer 15 base model. I always use geforce experience to install my graphics driver. It also is useful for optimizing settings for game too.

Download and install the NVIDIA GeForce hotfix through this link and see if it helps. Otherwise, send me a PM including the following:

a. MSinfo logs.
b. Screenshot of Windows version (Hit Windows + R. Open the Run box with then type winver)
c. Synapse 3.0 logs.
d. Photo of the BIOS main tab

Save the files via Google Drive or any online drive account, then paste the link in your PM. I’ll be locking this thread now to divert our conversation privately.
