GPU Tweak II - Always 3D Clock

Hi,

 

I accidentally enabled the Always 3D Clock feature on GPU Tweak II (ASUS's version of afterburner) and after that, my screen blacked out. Waited for a few mins then the screen went back on but is frozen.

 

Restarted the machine and it won't get past the windows loading page - can't even get to the login screen.

 

I can confirm that the GPU is still fine though, as it works in safe mode. I am using it now actually.

 

Through some tinkering with the registry I was able to uninstall GPU Tweak II inside safe mode but the issues persists. Seems like the setting was saved on the GPU BIOS?

Can't run in integrated graphics since I am on Ryzen 3 1200

Tried the DVI port on my motherboard but it only shows a black screen (Asus Prime B350 plus)

Installed MSI afterburner in an attempt to reset the GPU settings to default but it cannot detect the GPU (VGA driver is disabled on safe mode)

Device manager detects the GPU though (Asus GTX 760 DirectCU II OC)

 

Not sure how to reset my GPU settings to default without booting windows normally, if only I can clear the GPU BIOS setting like on motherboards

 

Any tips?

Interested in computer architecture? Still in middle or high school? P.M. me!

 

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.

download and run DDU from safemode and remove the NVIDIA drivers, should solve it

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016
