Since about a week ago, my computer has had an issue when starting from sleep or a shutdown state, the graphics card will not function properly.
At first it was just an issue where the first game i play that is remotely demanding, even the main menu of overwatch, would cause the Nvidia driver to stop responding and usually recover. After this initial crash the graphics driver would no longer give any more problems no matter how many more hours of usage there is.
As of yesterday though, it seems like the problem has gotten worse after the computer initially booted with no GPU signal after the bios splash screen, and after a restart took about 5-6 nvidia driver crashes over 5 minutes or so in a random game before it fully recovered and stopped having issues for the rest of the day.
I tried using DDU to uninstall existing drivers and reinstall the newest nvidia drivers with a clean installation but unfortunately it did not change the outcome.
The system is running a 6600k, GTX 1070, and a 500w Power Supply.
