hi Sergey.
unfortunately, the Win10 v2004 issue/problem with very old nVidia graphics hardware (ex. Geforce 6150LE/6150SE) & old nvidia drivers like 309.08 is still there and is not fully resolved as I still experience a start menu bug with missing text and a “flickering” Settings window plus a more transparent or ghost-like taskbar in 2004.
only way to workaround or “fix” that problem was to enable the “Increase Taskbar Transparency Level” option in Winaero Tweaker and reboot – that made both the Win10 2004 Start menu and the Taskbar appear to work correctly with the 309.08 nvidia graphics driver on old an old nVidia geforce hardware like 6150LE/6150SE running Win10 v2004.
