Wonder if DDUs borked it, and removed stuff it shouldn't have, as seen it many times, after people using DDU, their not able to get any drivers at all on, why id never use it.

It failed before i DDU it. From the nvidia experience app when it told me there was an update, that was the first fail. This then caused me to DDU.
@eeii I will try this
@Quartz then I will try this
@nomadd I will also try this
@bru I tried this already, the registry is clean, the restore points have been erased without my knowledge due to a windows update in the past
Just a guess but uninstall msi afterburner if you have it or any other monitoring programs.
If that fails i would install windows on a different hdd and if it still wont work then at least you have your old windows to go back to if you need it.

Thank you, I will try all of these things when I get home
If all else fails the only option left appears to be fire. Simply put card in fire and walk away
This is how you solve problems in life!
Especially nvidia cardsIf all else fails the only option left appears to be fire. Simply put card in fire and walk away
Well I wasn't going to say! You know in the name of being impartial and all that, I think I said this to you when were were chatting on the phone, you can't deny that it is a good card, for me? Nope, but for the hardcore gamers it's the dream right? At the end of the day if it were my card I would still lick it. Probably tastes like chicken, most things do. Before anybody asks standard practice is to lick anything new, otherwise how do you know what it tastes like?
If I have to rma it, I'm going to lick it first, if I learnt anything from you it's that I have to make sure it tastes like chicken or I might as well get amd again. At least I know they do!
Solid plan that! Surely though it can't be dead? I mean driver update = dead, psh this can't be right.
That's what it seems like.......
got a spare system to throw it in? nobody wants to be reinstalling that is just agg, made worse if its genuinely nuked itself. Id be writing a strongly worded letter, here let me start it for you.
Tried everything suggested, nothing worked in the slightest, always ended with it failing to install the driver
I even tried to reset windows and keep the files, that even failed.
So I'm doing a fresh install of Windows now. Maybe it will work after that....

Good luck dude. did it work?
Still copying important files from my boot drive before I wipe it. Won't find out until morning now I think.. What a stupid problem to have, nvidia update destroying my entire Windows build
Just take the drive out and plug in another drive, even a HDD.
So, Windows install doesn't work either, could it be the Intel nvme @Vince?
I'd eat my hat if it is. I take it windows installed ok etc?
No, it got to the post where it restarts and then said not installation failed
