Clear All Event Logs in Event Viewer in Windows  


FWIW CCleaner will clear the Event Viewer Logs - just check the box under Windows>Advanced>Windows Events Logs. run CCleaner and it's that simple. Much faster than most ,bat files I've tried. Just a suggestion.

 

Event viewer

I suggest you re-install the video driver.

I'll add a few words of explanation about Event viewer in a moment. They won't affect the need to reinstall that driver as your first step.
