Hello, I recently set up the latest Nividia Driver for my 770 using GeForce Experience. After installation, I noticed a flickering black screen. All I could see was my mouse moving erratically on the screen. I think the driver I installed is the Geforce 340.52, but it seems like it just asked permission and I clicked yes without much thought. My system specs are: Intel i5 4670K, EVGA GTX 770, Sabertooth Z97, 16 GB RAM, Windows 8.1 64-bit. I checked online and found similar issues during a Windows update, but my system was working fine before. Thanks in advance!

Consider reinstalling the drivers, or proceed with safe mode if needed.

Thanks, I'll try the reboot in safe mode. Vascol, the issue is, I'm stuck in the black screen right after powering on.
