Nvidia GTX 760 driver crash

[asclepias]

I just redid much of my computer. Everything was changed including the motherboard except the HDD and the graphics card. I installed a fresh slate of Windows Home Premium 7 and it seemed to be working fine. After that I went to update my Nvidia drivers and after restarting my computer, it worked for a few seconds and then locked up completely. No black screen or blue screen, just locks up. It seems like this nvidia driver update is freezing my computer but I don't know what to do about it. The PC runs fine without the driver update, but every time I try to update it, it locks up. Is it the driver, or the card itself? Any help would be appreciated. I have no idea what to do.

Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit
Geforce GTX 760
i5-7500

You can try an older driver. Could be a bad card or power supply, what is the brand and model of the power supply?

It's an evga 750 watt 80+ Gold. The power supply was like I said changed to that recently. I was going to try an older driver tonight and see what happens. Thanks for the input and I will update the post if anything comes of it.

Tried a later driver after making sure everything else was installed and working properly. It's just black after the windows welcome.
