Hey, i was using Asus' GPU tweak 2 tool and i enabled " always use 3D mode " to see its effect on my computer, needless to say that it started messing my computer display instantly causing it to freeze and my cursor disappeared so i couldn't disable the feature. I then restarted my computer to see if it would fix the issue. However now whenever it loads up, it takes forever to load and when it does, it goes to a black screen where blue dashes are across the top of the screen and then restarts my computer again in an endless loop. It looks as if i need to restart my GPU's settings but dont know how to in the bios etc...

I am using an ASUS NVIDIA GTX 760 TI 2GB OC edition.

I have found that i can load up the computer correctly in safe mode but cannot open the tweak program!

Hello... Your Asus' GPU tweak 2 tool AND new settings are now in the "Booting" of the OS... typically if you can temporary "disable" from the boot process you will get the OS to boot to fix the setting.

The two methods I know of are using the 1) OS Boot "selective startup" procedure "F?" key or 2) use MSconfig command and manually disable the APP.

Does the "Advanced Boot Options " from F8 give you a ""selective startup" option? OR does "safe mode" allow access and editing in the MSconfig panel/app?

Just accidentally clicked same button and it messed my system. I have gtx 780.As long as display adpter is disabled in windows, all is fine. But when I enable it, some kind of kernel error appears. No solution found yet.

Edit: Removing the application and Nvidia drivers did at least something. Dual monitor setup and resolutions were recalled correctly at least. I hope the problem doesn't come back as soon as I get drivers installed..
