Then it's likely the GPU crapped itself and has nothing to do with Windows updates.

Managed to fix it. Here are the things that I have done:
1) Install the latest Java, Yes it is weird but this removed the code 43 in the Device Manager. But this brought me back to bluescreen every log-in, so I DDU the drivers in safe mode.
2) Install the latest Chipset Drivers, Windows kept reverting to the old one every BSOD, then I have disable windows auto update of drivers.
3) Installed the latest drivers compatible to my Device and viola. Problem solved

Now it works fine.

Hi guys, I have this Old Laptop that got me through College. With the current pandemic, my sibling needed a laptop to do some light SketchUP and AutoCAD. So I lent it to my sibling then after using it for a while, guess what happened? Windows decided to update. With that it broke my Laptop's dedicated GPU and won't work anymore, (see pic for reference).

Specs below:
Intel i3-3120M

8GB DDR3

GT710M 2GB

Here are the list of things that I have tried but still no success.
1) Already cleaned the Laptop's fan and replaced the thermal paste before lending it to my sibling.
2) System Restore before that windows update happened.
3) Update all the drivers and downloaded all the updates in Windows Updates.
4) DDU the GPU Driver in Safe Mode and Install the latest driver.

I badly need help, buying a new one isn't an option because the Pandemic affected my work.

Maybe try going back to an older driver if you can. 

Forgot to add that. I have also tried that, but that gives me BSOD on startup and makes the laptop unusable except for safe mode

Did you try disabling the integrated graphics?

Ok, I have tried to do this just now. Disabling via BIOS is not possible, no option to disable integrated gpu there. I also tried disabling it via Device manager and Restarting. Still no luck
