I opened Geforce experience and tried, for the second time, to install the 332.21 driver version for my GTX 650. I started playing BF4 while the installation was occuring, not a good idea perhaps.
The screens flicks black and a "blum" sound plays, which is good, everytime I update my gpu drivers the screen does that and come to normal. This time it came to normal, ok, but the game minimaze and the installation of the new driver (332.21) fails and my GPU isn't detected anymore. Now my video is set to 1600x1200 and I can't change back to 1600x900.

I tried to use ways to detected it and no result, undetected. What to do? I'm no hardware guy, so I don't know how to unplug it from the motherboard and that kind of stuff.

I switch to safe mode when starting up my pc, checked my gpu drivers through safe mode and I restored my system to three days ago. It's all good now.
Sorry for my english, it's bad.

seems like the driver wasnt useful for u.
just install only the whql certified drivers to avoid the mess.
another thing will be like just leave the driver installation alone while its working. as i've personally experienced this thing.
as u play while installation works it completes some of the processes but while playing the game it basically interrupts the installation and breaks the process. because the game is still using some of the required resources.

Solution: try not to run the game or any kind of program while ur getting the driver installed. perform a clean installation every time as it resets every setting to its default and then u can customize as u want.
