    Hi All,

    Interesting problem cropping up at least once a month. My Nvidia Video drivers corrupt and I completely loose the screen. The only way for me to "Fix" this is to boot into safe mode and manually remove them and then reinstall. Anyone else experiencing this?

    Thx!

    Oddly enough, I think one other person.

    Do yourself a favor, and open up a command prompt with Admin rights, and run

    sfc /scannow

    See if you have some corrupted libraries / drivers.

    You can also uninstall your nvidia drivers too after the scan, and then run Driver Sweeper to get rid of any legacy settings and libraries.

    Then install 280.19 beta.
