This morning my PC froze while gaming and I haven't got it to work since. Everything works fine until I download the GPU drivers and the PC tries to switch to GPU display. Screen will turn black mid download and will not boot until MOBO lets me boot in safe mode. After using DDU and removing the drivers, I can boot and operate outside of safe mode until I try to install the drivers again. Have tried 2 different GPU's both give same issue.
Wondering how I can tell if it is a GPU, MOBO, or PSU issue.
