Windows 7 freeze after restart

[baric27]

Hi!
I have a strange(not common) problem..
I installed a few days ago the new nvidia driver 260.89.I did a clean isntall.When it prompted to restart it didn't restart my pc.I had to use the reset button.After that I could'nt restart my windows it simply said shutting down, and after that black screen(no video signal), and nothing happened.I tried to reinstall an older driver but the same problem, the driver installed correctly but the restart didn't work.In safe mode same problem.I managed to resolve by disabling the VGA card from the device manager and enabling after restart.But today the problem came back, and now it isn't working with the disable of the VGA card.
Can someone help me pls, because I cannot restart my PC from windows, only with the reset button.The shut down is working perfectly, only the restart doesn't.
Thank you!

Do you have the original install DVD?

 

[baric27]

I have the install DVD but isn't original .
I tried startup repair with F8 it found an error:unexpected sistem configuration change or something like that but it couldn't fix the problem

 

[richc46]

Can you get to system restore?

 

[baric27]

I tried, but there is no restore point (I did a clean install in about a month ago)

 

[richc46]

Do you have important stuff on the computer?

 

[baric27]

Not realy, but I hoped that I don't need to reinstall the op. system
But let's say I reinstall, what if the problem will appear again?

 

[richc46]

Here is my opinion. The problem started with the Nvidia driver, so that is the cause. It is my opinion if we could only replace it the problem would be solved, but we have to boot to get to that point.

Your thoughts?

 

[baric27]

I don't understand, boot from what?
My windows is working, I have problem only with the restart.
By replacing the driver you mean format the Windows 7 partition and reinstall it?
Thank you!

 

[richc46]

No what I mean is actually much easier, the Nvidia driver seems to be part of the problem. You installed it and now there are problems. I would like to replace that driver, with the original one that you had when the computer was working properly. Can you do a system restore from about 2 days before you made the changes?

 

[baric27]

I wrote before that I cannot do system restore because i don't have any restore points created.
I installed an older driver which was worked before but it did'nt helped, I let the windows 7 to install its own driver but that did't helped too

Type event viewer in search and look for critical errors we may get some clues.

 

[baric27]

The following errors(not critical):
Product: NVIDIA PhysX -- Installation terminated

The UPnP Device Host service failed to start due to the following error:
The service did not start due to a logon failure.

The NVIDIA Stereoscopic 3D Driver Service service failed to start due to the following error:
The system cannot find the file specified

The following boot-start or system-start driver(s) failed to load:
AFD
bdfsfltr
bdfwfpf
CSC
DfsC
discache
NetBIOS
NetBT
nsiproxy
Psched
rdbss
SCDEmu
spldr
tdx
Wanarpv6
WfpLwf

The NVIDIA Display Driver Service service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 1 time(s).

These are the errors from that date when the first time I installed the driver

There are more errors but i dont know if they have to do with the diver(I couldn;t find in their description nothing that refers to nvidia)

 

[richc46]

The event viewer confirms that Nvidia is at least part of the problem. You said that the problem continues when you changed drivers?
I am really confused.

 

[baric27]

Yes.Maybe I have to look for a program which removes completely the driver(maybe from some reason the windows cannot completely remove the driver)

 

[richc46]

Go to search
type
cmd
in cmd type
driverquery
Do you see the driver.

 

[baric27]

Here are the drivers staring with N...

 

[richc46]

There is at least one Nvidia filter driver.

 

[baric27]

Meaning...?

 

[richc46]

Meaning that this driver has to be updated, if not done so already.
