lenovo y510p Win 10 crashed after Geforce installation

[franman]

The Geforce driver version I'm updating to is 397.93 on my Lenovo y510p laptop.  It houses a soldiered Geforce gt 750m gpu.

 

I tried this several times.  After post-installation, the OS becomes slightly unresponsive; opening programs execute slower.  Eventually Windows 10 crashed with the blue screen of death claiming its a power state failure.  Even if I do restart the same blue screen of death appears.  There are times when upon rebooting after that blue screen of death another blue screen of death follows up claiming the critical process has died.  Fortunately with some backup I was able to revert to the state prior to installation.

 

Methods tried so far but didn't work

I've changed advanced power settings under the balanced power plan.  With Wireless Adapter Settings for Power Saving Mode set to Maximum Performance when plugged in, Intel(R) Graphics Settings on its Graphics Power Plan to Maximum Performance when plugged in and PCI Express's Link State Power Management to Off when plugged in.

 

Furthermore, I've set Nvida's Control Panel to Global setting.

 

Can anyone suggest a better alternative and/or correct me where I went wrong?"
