Default Random screen freezes since installing 3080 gfx card

Since switching from a 1060 to a 3080 graphics card last week, I've been getting random screen freezes. I have to Ctrl + Alt + Del and restart the client.

I play in window mode and use GINA.

Any ideas?

Ok will try that. Do you have any idea how I would do it though? I have the Geforce experience program installed and that seems to download and update the drivers for me. It says I have the latest ones.

If you have trouble uninstalling your gpu driver.
Boot into safe mode and run Display Driver Uninstaller
