    Windows 10 update 1/16/20 - 1/17/20 - messed up my display

    My machine auto updated on 1/16 or 1/17 and now my display is screwed up. Low res, blurred. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the latest driver for my geforce gtx 970. I've uninstalled the windows updates. Nothing is fixing it. What did this update
    do???

    WINDOWS 10 11/16/17 UPDATE

    Hi,

    DELL XPS 8610 (?) (CAME W/ WIN 10)

    As time goes on, I like windows 10 less and less.

    11/15/17: update (1/2 hour to get back into windows.

    11/16(17)/17: Option: choose update and shut off.

    This AM 1 hour on black screen with slowly turning dots in a circle.

    Shut off and powered on:

    "trying to recover install"

    25 minutes "working on updates" will restart several times.

    1. Has MS finally destroyed my computer?

    I need PC for income/productivity. (MS might want 2 consider this)

    2. Is this normal?

    3. ANY suggestions?

    4. Is this shades of YOUR future treatment of COMPUTER OWNERS?
