Hello,
My laptop (Lenovo Ideapad S540-15IWL) would not identify any external monitor for some time.
-> I looked at "device manager" in settings, I see that the Nvidia driver is not up to date.
-> I start the Nvidia app with control centre, I download the update, install it. There seems nothing to happen.
-> After a few attempts, I uninstalled the driver (in device manager)
-> I tried to reinstall the driver, did not work (I went over this too quickly I'm afraid)
-> I decide to do a factory reset of Windows (! there was no Nvidia driver installed at this point!)
-> Reset was completed, but with the reboot I get a BSOD with "System Thread Exception Not Handled" - "NvIddmkm.sys" as error.
-> After this the laptop is in a loop (no blue screens anymore, no chance to do safe mode, no access to command prompt) - only Lenovo logo, loading sign, ... and again
I'm afraid I'm in quite a pickle...
Can somebody help me out?
Many thanks in advance
