Installing GPU Drivers on Windows Desktops¶
Before installing the PCoIP Agent, you need to install the correct driver for your configured GPUs. RDP into your machine and then proceed with the installation instructions below.
The correct driver versions for release 23.06 are shown below. Be sure to install the specified driver, and not the latest available version. We qualify Graphics Agent support against the driver versions listed here.
Documentation for download and installation of these drivers is provided by their manufacturers. As a convenience, we've provided the current locations of relevant third-party documentation here. While we do our best to keep these links up to date, we do not control these resources or their locations and it's possible that they could break.
