Pc crashes when installing display drivers

Minotaur_

So i played all day and when i got off, the next day i turned my pc on ans it wouldn’t boot up properly. It kept going in a cycle, trying to repair it and it wouldn’t be able to repair itself. I restarted it and would just shut off and keep going through the cycle. I uninstalled windows and reinstalled ans worked fine up until i tries installing the drivers. It started doing the the cycle where it tries to repair itself but doesnt work. Anyhelp please ? Ideas?

A few things you should include in help requests:
system specs
driver version
windows version
what card, what method are you using to install drivers, etc. 

there's one possibility: the new nvidia drivers are messed up, you should try installing older drivers, saw so many reports of problems moreso than other ones especially for crashing/bsods

other possibility: you are overheating

another: improperly set bios settings

another: your installation drive is corrupted or needs to be reseated

another: reseat ram and cpu and everything

that should cover most problems

My friend installed older nvidia drivers but as he was doing it, it crashed. And continued to boot loop. He thinks that it could be the graphics cards thats dead. Could that be it ?

what precisely happens in the boot loop? I do know that some people were still having problems even after downgrading, but I'd have to go look at the forums again
Do you have onboard graphics? Can you try just running it cpu only?

It isn’t an onboard graphics card. Well for starters it grabs the wrong boot, i have to manually boot it up. When im able to get into windows aftwr reinstalling it, tha graphics card doesnt even ahow up in the settings, my friend belivew the graphics card is dead but ive only had it for a month so idk

If you're able to boot into Windows, I'd suggest doing a clean uninstall of your drivers, then a fresh download and reinstall.

That will help narrow down if it's actually a driver-related problem or something else.
