Windows 10 - Applications crash when using the GPU

Hi there,

I have an asus ROG laptop with a gtx 1050. I am running windows 10. Essentially, whenever I try to launch an application that uses the GPU, the application crashes. So all the games in my steam library go unresponsive when launched. Obs will launch, but when I try to do window capture/browser source/etc, it will also go unresponsive too. When I go to my NVIDIA control panel, and I click the "adjust settings with preview", the app also crashes. I think this is an issue with drivers for the GPU, but I'm not sure where to start.
Any help/suggestions would be appreciated.
Cheers.

I like Computer Stuffs. Have you tried unplugging it and plugging it in again? Automation Expert (Bots, scripts, etc)! Add me on Xbox Live: JollyPlanet449 And on Steam!: Baxtmann Wanshow.tips is a cool place too

Are you on the latest nvidia driver?

 

Try uninstalling driver, and installing the latest, then restart

Pretty sure I'm on the most recent drivers, but I will try re-installing

Update: When I completly uninstalled the driver, stuff was working (using intel integrated graphics) but once I re-installed the drivers, everything stopped working again.

Was it just one certain application that crashes or all of them?

Anything that specifically uses the GPU (OBS, Xsplit, Any steam game, Nvidia control panel, etc)

So install older drivers. Maybe it's some bug in new drivers.

tried drivers from August, April, and January, still not working.

Download Furmark and try running it's stress test.

If it fails  try downloading Video memory stress test ( there are dos and windows versions) and run it and look for errors. 

This might sound strange but it might be a psu issue.

Furmark just crashes whenever I try to run a test.

I get this when I run video memory test:
