All i can really recommend is to that you roll back the display driver via the Device Manager or use System Restore in Safe Mode to go back to when you had the working driver.

Or uses Guru3D's Display Driver uninstaller/Driver Sweeper to wipe your drivers then install the Driver version you had before you installed the new one.

As above - - generally you shouldn't update a driver unless there's a compelling reason to do so (eg existing driver has issues) - - the mere fact that there's a newer version does not constitute a compelling reason in my book.

Don't get obsessed with updating drivers just because a newer version has been released - - it's bad practice.
