Fixes For Geforce now error code 0x000001fb
Fix 1: Check Server Status
If you are seeing the following error while playing a game. Then, checking the GeForce server status should be the first thing to do.
This way, if the issue is a server maintenance or server outage. Then, there is nothing much you can do. But, rather just wait it out till the problem gets dealt with from the server end itself.
You can check for the status of all the GeForceNow servers here.
Fix 2: Change the server datacenter
From all the solutions reported by users in various forums out there, changing the server datacenter from the current one to a different one seemed the most effective and widely popular one.
As can be seen above, simply changing the nvidia datacenter from one location / region to the other seemed to have done the trick. Hence, changing the server location from your current one to a different one which does not give the error is one way to go on solving the particular error.
Fix 3: Switch to a different bandwidth
There may be times when a specific bandwidth you are using might also result in the following error to occur.
In such a case, the problem might not completely lie with the server. But, it may have something to do with your connection at home itself. Or, something in between the client end and the server end at the same time.
Hence, here as mentioned above. You will need to change or set your bandwidth level according to what is available to you on your connection. And see if doing that helps with the following error.
