I'd try and use DDU to remove all GPU drivers, then manually reinstall the latest GPU driver from Nvidia's support site in an elevated command, i.e, Right click installer>Run as Administrator.
i just tried that. unfortunately that didn't work. I'm thinking maybe a Chipset Drivers? I did update those a week ago.
