Was playing a game early today and then the game crashed, I have a 660 ti,  and then the computer blue screened. i re boot and then dose not turn on again without graphical artifacts and instant blue screening. it happened after a system reboot so i am lead to believe than Nvidias newest driver is in some way corrupt or something. i can no longer boot the computer unless it is in safe mode. shall i just reinstall windows, unplug the Ethernet cable so it cant auto update and just install drivers from half a year ago to play it safe? any help will be greatly appreciated,

It may be that your drivers are corrupt, clean them out with DDU and attempt a reinstallation. If it persists, try a rollback to a previous version.

Hi Morph,

First, start in safe mode, go to windows settings and Turn off automatic driver update.

Next go to driver settings for your card (device manager) and roll back the driver.

Restart, and you should be golden.
