nvidia drivers have stopped working and successfully recovered

you didnt need to do any of that.
You should have gone into programs and features. Anything that had Nvidia or Geforce at the front uninstall
reboot pc
install new drivers choose custom, tick perform clean install then just tick physx and driver install nothing else.
Bobs your uncle.

you are still going to have the problem IF you just install everything with the nvidia driver after a fresh os install. Only choose physx and driver. I have not seen anywhere you state what you actually do at driver install.
He didn't use the DDU tool. He used system restore then, afterwards, tried to enter safe mode. The system repair issue began when he tried to enter safe mode - something which is seriously unusual.
 
You might have CPU or Memory instability if your having issues other than just the graphics drivers.

I had a DDR2 module fail recently, caused intermittent errors and took me ages to isolate the problem.
 
Rather difficult to call.

You're issues are highly familiar, just been through the same **** with identical problems (why I joined the form after lurking for years, fresh in my mind how frustrating the issue is).

I was able to swap parts out and knew the issue was not the card or other hardware. I also knew I could just live with the issues as I was going to get a new card. You don't have the same options

I did not waste time or stress wiping drivers, bios updates etc. stuck with the most stable driver, just used the geforce experience thing, clean install, driver, physics ex only.

It eventually started to work with a new release.

These things are just a **** particularly with a new build if you can't isolate problems.

I spent days thinking I had a significant hardware issue, with an unknown but new and expensive bit of kit and hours testing everything.

End of the day ticking a couple of boxes pressing the driver install button, total stability end of 4 months of grief.
 
Seems many have had these problems then :/ and that it's hard to fix. What exactly happened was that I restarted, missed the F8 key so it started to boot normally, then went into the boot cycle thing forever.
