Question Nvidia gtx 1050 shows UNKNOWN

[dantevergil525]

Hello,
Nvidia Gtx 1050 shows Unknown in geforce experience. but shows properly in device manager.
i have to manually disable it and then enable it from the device manager( enabling it manually, freezes the system, so I have to manually shutdown the system)
so question is ...has the gpu gone bad..or it might just be cuz of thermal paste and i need to reapply it? Any help will be appreciated. Thank You.

cpu- core i5- 7300 HQ, intel HD 630

so like right now.. i played a game of league of legends...card worked fine..game worked fine..temperatutes were more or less fine.... but after i closed the game... and gpu turned off.. now when i try to open the game..i get error graphics not initialized.. and in geforce experience it shows UNKNOWN... but in device manager..gpu is showing fine... now i have to first disable the gpu from device manager...then enable it...then it will work. happening with all games. nvidia driver is lastest as well 512.15

Have the same problem on my Laptop, its a Acer Aspire VX5-591G.
Same gpu- nvidia gtx 1050 (4 Gb), did you found a solution yet?

I have the same problem(kinda)
I have Acer Aspire VX5-591G
with new(latest) driver
Furmask not detected GTX1050 but HD630 does
GeForce Experience shows GPU unknown
GPU Z shows that it's detected the GPU but the ram size/speed/bandwidth is missing
at first all were fine but when I test it by put some load like furmask or gaming, the screen start to flickering then it force close furmask/game
then the gpu shows unknown

so I download the old version of driver from laptop manufacture(Acer website)
the driver version is 398.26 which is 4-5 years old now but it works fine and no problem(but it can't use some features like shadowplay streamming etc.)

and now I asking Nvidia for the solution(on going, they reply some of solutions but no correct solution now)
