Disabling secure boot and nvidia-driver-570 work for me. Thanks!

Thanks! Disabling Secure Boot fixed the issue with nvidia-driver-570 on Ubuntu 24.04.

Was all about disabling secure boot since unsigned modules can't be loaded with secure boot.

@farid1965 Depends on the OS. If Windows, you can find everything you need on the Download page for Drivers on the official site of Nvidia. If Linux, try getting the one from your distro's package manager. Should be something like (correct me if I'm wrong) nvidia-driver-{driver_version} (at least on Debian).
