I just installed a fresh windows 7 onto my computer and every time I installed my graphics drivers for my gtx 970 theres always some sort of problem. The first time I installed the drivers and rebooted the windows 7 logo animation finished then my screen went black and I could still hear the windows welcome sound. After that I installed windows 7 again and this time installed the driver from the CD it came with. This time it got past the logo but I can only see the desktop background no taskbar, logos or anything. Also when I try to ctrl alt delete it just gives me a black screen. It never did this before and I have no idea what to do about it. The only thing I'm about doing is installing windows 10 to a usb drive and install it.t

Did you install the other drivers first?

Yes I installed my motherboard drivers, Lan Driver, usb 3.0 driver then I installed the graphics driver. But I never checked for a bios update.

Start in safe mode and try to reinstall the drivers.

How do I start in safemode? I heard you have to press F8 but thats a key to go into my bios. My motherboard is a asus z97-A

hold the shift key and press f8.

just went into safe mode with networking and installed a older driver and its still doing the same thing. It loads past the logo then brings me to my background with no taskbar or anything.

What are your specs, becuase I know when I cold boot, before I upgraded my RAM, I would have to sometimes wait a few minutes for the tabs and my shortcuts to load.
