    181.20 Driver Causes Black Screen On Boot Up

    Hello to everyone. I have recently updated my NVIDIA Drivers to the 181.20 driver which is causing black screen on boot up. I have tried to find the solution for my problem. But, I am not able to do that. If you are having any solution for that then please give that to me. I have installed the driver from the safe mode and after that I have simply tried to start the computer in normal mode, but it gives me black screen. What is solution for this problem.

    You are actually facing this problem due to the problem in your Screen Resolution. If you simply set your resolution to the value which is supported by the monitor then you will able to solve your problem. I think that you will able to fix your problem with the change in your screen resolution. So, just set that to the 800 X 600 for just checking that. It will simply fix you problem.

    Why don't you try to use any other monitor and then check out whether you are having the problem of the monitor or not? If you have problem of the monitor then you will not able to fix that by making any change to the system. You have to change that monitor and then only you will able to solve your problem. So, just do that and get the solution. It will solve your problem.
