So I have been to 2 other forums and have gotten zero answers. Here is my BSOD zip file:
View attachment 64137
I recently had a BSOD while attempting to open NVIDIA nTune, which was probably just a bad idea anyway, but I'm pretty sure it's related.
To sum up the main issue, whenever I install a NVIDIA driver for my new build, the driver installer asked me to restart, but when I do, it crashes my system completely and I get a BSOD right after the windows logo/loading symbol appears and disappears. The error reads "DRIVER_OVERRAN_STACK_BUFFER". 90% of the time Windows will attempt to boot twice and perform an automatic repair in which it disables all the NVIDIA drivers.
I have attempted to install only the graphics driver (none of the unnecessary 3d or physX stuff) but I have made no progress.
I've also been trying to install the basic nvidia driver via windows update (an update from February) but windows update just keeps failing to do, well, anything.
I appreciate any help. I've been looking for answers for three days now, this is a new build I made just for gaming and I can't even play any games on it...
Specs:
Gigabyte GTX960 WF OC
Intel 4690k
ASUS Z97-E
Kingston HyperX Fury 16GB (2x8GB)
Rosewill Photon-550
