I'm at the very end of this journey and cant seem to find a solution to this issue.


The day I updated to windows 10 my computer was working fine, all games, screen resolution and everythine else was fine. But as I upgraded I get brought to the desktop to find myself at the 1280x720 resolution. Confused I try to change it only to be brought to the fact that I cant. It simply wont let me change the resolution. Several reboots, driver installations, and uninstalls of the graphics card through device manager, nothing is working. I continue to try to fix it but nothing is working. Ive searched the internet for any possible fix but everything I have tried has not worked. I attempt to install the drivers through Geforce Experience and manually from the website only to be either told that these files were not installed or I reboot and come back to being told the same drivers are available for update.

Code 43 (Windows has stopped the device) has been in device manager and it basically wont go away with any fix that I try.

My conclusion is that my graphics card is dead? I attempted to run RTC3(the only game old enough I figured could possibly work) and just get black bars flashing the screen entirely. I cant run any game whatsoever and furmark wont even detect my card.

Help :(

Have you tried this link there are several opinions for this specific code https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/861231/geforce-drivers/nvidia-amp-windows-10-how-i-solved-the-code-43-error-/1/

A quick note when I uninstall my drivers I use Driver Fusion, and I think you have done this already but have you tried to do a clean install for windows 10, I hope this helps mate good luck.
