Recently, I upgraded my graphics card from a Radeon HD 6870 to a GTX 970, and all would be great except I am getting a blank screen. This happens after I install the newest drivers provided by Nvidia (347.09 WHQL), and restart of my computer. After I login to windows, I get about 5-10 minuets before my screen goes blank. I do not have a cursor, just a blank screen. This has happened on Windows 7 and 8.1. In some cases I get the blank screen during installation of the drivers (right after the driver itself is done installing). No matter how long I wait, it never recovers and just remains a blank screen.
It works just fine in safemode/when there are just default drivers, there are only issues after I install drivers. Any help would be much appreciated.
Some things I have tried are:
-Disabling internal graphics
-Uninstalling drivers with DDU, restarting, and installing the driver in safemode
-Disabling the option to allow windows to install drivers
-Using windows 7 and 8.1
-Reseeding the card
-Updating bios
My specs:
MSI Z97-G45 Mobo
i7-4770k
8 gb RAM
PNY GTX 970
Thermaltake TR700 PSU
Thanks
