I've had this 1060 6GB for quite a while now and I went through a factory reset on my pc this morning, but it seems it kind of caused a big problem as my graphics card is displaying red pixels over the screen and going black for a couple of seconds when something notable happens on screen. video will be linked.

I really need this pc to be working as I have finals due in 5 days, hopefully I can get this fixed by then.

If this was caused by a simple factory reset, try uninstalling the graphics driver through DDU, and reinstall the driver. This one should very likely be your correct driver.

just finished doing this and sadly to no avail, the black random screen is still occuring and same for the red dots.
