What is wrong with my computer?

I re-read your post.

I suggest doing the following things.

 

1) reset your screen back to factory. (no overclocking)

2) set you gpu back to factory (no overclocking) Your overclock setting could be the issue and with upgraded driver it could be off setting your overclock setting and you will need to redo them. Drivers can change the voltage requirement for hardware during rendering. This could be the culprit but one step at a time.

3) make sure your hardware I.e. gpu, power cables etc. are re-seated and plugged in.

4) turn it all back on and see what happens.

 

If the problem persists you can;

Install an older driver for the gpu (this sometimes helps identify the issue or becomes the solution) Drivers can be tricky sometimes.

 

Nvidia drivers in Win10 are a bit funky right now. So bear with the troubleshooting until we narrow down the problem.

 

(one possible issue, mostly unlikely but possible, is you may need to replace the thermal paste on the gpu)

Let us know what happens.
