Question Trailing Shadow Ghosting on Left Side of Screen in Games
Question Trailing Shadow Ghosting on Left Side of Screen in Games
Hello everyone
I’m trying to figure out what this ghosting shadow effect looks like on my monitor. It appears only on the left side of the screen during games, especially in low-light conditions. Is this a problem with the display itself or related to some graphics settings? Thanks in advance!
Welcome to the forums, newcomer!
If this problem occurs across all titles, you might want to reinstall your GPU drivers. Use DDU to remove all GPU drivers (Intel, AMD and Nvidia), then manually install the newest driver from your GPU manufacturer's support site. Place the driver in an elevated command, such as right-clicking the installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
You can also test by connecting your monitor to another display source; if the issue continues, the monitor is likely the cause.
Thank you for your prompt reply.
I removed all drivers with DDU as instructed.
I started a game and, for the initial ten seconds, I was surprised since the issue appears resolved.
After roughly ten seconds of testing, my game stuttered briefly and then froze for half a second before it returned. Could this be related to an activation in the Nvidia App that changes a setting? I recall having the "optimize games" option enabled.
I've been working on fixing this problem for the past few days, but it hasn't improved on my older graphics card.
Perhaps reinstalling drivers again without using the Nvidia App could help.
I'm currently using an RTX 5070 Ti.
