Perhaps an hour prior I updated the NVIDIA drivers, but I noticed reduced frame rates in the game. I decided to revert the drivers and reinstall the mid driver. My PC froze during the process, so I forced it off and after restarting, I accessed BIOS and encountered a black screen. I can still use my cursor IMG_1799.mov.

At some stage, windows should activate automatic fixes. After that, you can enter safe mode with internet access. Of course, the settings will be incorrect, but that's the nature of safe mode—it runs with minimal drivers. Through safe mode, you can install "DDU" and update the latest driver. After downloading, avoid running anything unless necessary; if using cable, turn off the internet first. Run DDU, which will repair the faulty driver and restart. Once done, reboot manually a few more times. You should be fine then. If something goes wrong, just let me know.
