    Nvidia gpu driver keeps failing

    i have a gtx 780m and it was running fine then i started facing bdos saying display powerstate faliure (something like this i dont remember) and i updated the bios and the firmware and i dont get it anymore but the gpu driver not detecting the hardware kept happening it randomly happens and some times gets fixed by reseting the bios settings to default settings and sometimes not . sometimes it even gets fixed by a simple restart.

    i tried ddu , bios update , ec firmware update , sfc /scannow , pci express forcedisable,

    rn when i am typing this i deleted the last windows update and with a restart it, the driver came back to life

    WHAT i mean by gpu driver not working is that the driver is not shown in the device manager and it shows when i enable “show hidden devices” (when the issue randomly gets fixed it shows as “gtx 780m” like nothing happened" and when i delete the driver when the issue is still happening it doesnot show back but when it gets fixed it shows “microsoft display driver”

    the event viewer of the most recent driver that windows installed after the issue randomly got fixed and it installed “microsoft display driver” shows:
