Problem
After upgrading from Windows 8 Enterprise to Windows 8.1, Google Chrome displays pink color screen like this :
Windows Environment
- Chrome 34.0.1847.137 m
- Windows 8.1
- NVIDIA 331.58
- Chrome GPU : NVIDIA 9.18.13.3158
To get the Chrome GPU, type chrome://gpu in the browser URL, refer to the driver version.
Driver vendor NVIDIA Driver version 9.18.13.3523
Note
If “Relaunch Chrome in Windows 8 mode”, the pink overlay screen is gone. This “pink color screen” is displayed in “Desktop mode” only.
If “Relaunch Chrome in Windows 8 mode”, the pink overlay screen is gone. This “pink color screen” is displayed in “Desktop mode” only.
Solution
This is caused by the old NVIDIA driver, to fix it, upgrade to the latest NVIDIA driver, for example version 335.23, released date on 3/10/2014 or newer.
Figure : NVIDIA Control Panel, system information, driver version : 335.23
Chrome GPU, chrome://gpu
Driver vendor NVIDIA Driver version 9.18.13.3158
Done.
