Just now updated to the newest NVidia drivers (344) for my 650 - Clicked to do a clean install, about 30 seconds later screens turned off and the computer has started to continuously reboot (without displaying anything on the screens while doing so.

What to do?
 
Solution
1) Go safe mode if possible, then uninstall or disable the GPU driver, and disable Windows Driver Installation.
Find manually the latest driver for the graphics and install it.
2) Roll back with a Windows Restore Point, and do what's below first, then update.
For future reference, disable Windows drivers installation, and don't do a clean install for update, if everything was working properly before. Somehow lot of people have problems with nVidia, clean install....
