Did you do any other adjusting in any of the control panels? like radeon or nvidia ?

I'm not that familiar with Nvidia, but is this GPU (and driver) of the era when overclocking was enabled by registry hacks? The CoolBits hack as I remember it. Afterburner would have enabled it but it may not disable it, or can't if it's not there anymore. If so, disabling that in the registry may be necessary.

Open REGEDIT by typing it in Cortana search.

search the registry for something called COOLBITS.

That was an old-school method for overclocking Nvidia cards, it was an outside shot for yours and only suggested because your card is so old.

Next thing to try would be a clean re-install of Nvidia GPU drivers. Use Display Driver Uninstaller to clean up all residual nonsense.
