I recently came home to hear we had a power outage. Turned on my computer (this is on windows 10 at the time, and I do use a surge protector) and noticed everything was out of resolution, and 800x600 was my highest option.. So I restarted my PC, to find it loses signal to monitor right after the windows 10 logo. I don’t have a recovery media for win 10 made yet so I formatted my drive and installed windows 8, planning to upgrade to 10 again after. Problem is, anytime I install a driver to my graphics card I lose signal mid-install.. forcing me to power off. I can see my bios logo, I just cant get passed the windows logo. As for drivers, I initially tried the latest driver for my card (GTX 1060 6gb) but since I’ve tried this process with an older driver, as well as the driver that came with the card on disc. So I’m left to assume this isn’t due to a faulty driver. Again, I lose signal soon as I try installing a graphics driver, on both Windows 8 and 10. I’ve tried a couple times now and am completely at a loss..
