Windows 10: A very strange, specific problem

I ran into this issue when playing Arma 3, where I would experience random crashes that I determined to be caused by graphics drivers. I recently switched from an NVIDIA card to an AMD 7900XTX and I noticed some NVIDIA programs were running in task manager, so I deleted those and uninstalled some leftover NVIDIA programs, which seemed to help a little bit, but the issue persisted. A friend of mind recommended I use DDU to fully uninstall my old NVIDIA drivers, but when I tried doing an advanced startup to boot in safe mode, I would repeatedly get a BSoD that was stuck at 0% with oversaturated

Windows 10 1709 System Restore problems...

That seems to be an attempt at Option 2 in the tutorial, which requires you to
a. Boot to a command prompt (Did you?)
b. You then seem to be mixing steps 3,4 and 5, thus your command is incorrect.

I suggest Option 1 is easier.

If you still have problems, please repost listing each specific step and saying which option from the tutorial you are using. Thanks.

 

Strange boot problem

I am trying to get my head round the 6 steps above before having a go. If you can expand on them it may give me a bit more confidence. I cant lose the whole contents of my PC.
Have attached details as you suggested.

 

8800GTS problems.

Seems pretty strange to me. I have a standard 8800GTS, the only problem I get is the BSOD nv4_disp.dll thing, which in my case I think is linked to heat on other parts of the video card.

I would suggest completely removing the drivers using Driver Cleaner, and install the ones that came with the card first. If the problem continues, remove again, try the newest drivers. If it still happens, underclock the card and try the same steps. In the end, talk to EVGA and see what they tell you.
