Windows 10: Windows 10 graphics card not showing in device manager after driver_power_state_failure.

Ok so let's be honnest I turned on my pc around 12pm today, worked fine for 5 mins after that this happened,

And unfortunately I didn't have the photo of the bsod so this is just a reference from the internet and in my case the error was device driver_power_state_failure, and let me tell you what actually this happened with me about almost 2 months ago but that was fixed on I think 24-12-20.
