ROG gaming center not working after Nvidia driver update

I've just updated my Nvidia driver to version 382.53 and now several things stooped working:

Here are some examples:
ROG Gaming center - program stooped working and need to close
Heroes of the Storm - Graphics device not available at this time
Masters of Orion - Failed to initialize Direct3D

I've uninstalled and installed the drivers again.
If I run something in youtube and press CTRL+ALT+DEL , on the GPU graphics I can see that the Intel Graphics gard is working, but not the GeForce GTX 1050Ti

Please help! 🙂

Download and run DDU into safe mode
This will uninstall the Nvidia drivers and wipe the orphaned files from the system and registry.
Reboot and reinstall 388.00

After over 6 hours of chat with Nvidia support and a lot of different drivers installations and blue screens, I finally solved 90% of the problem:

1. I updated the bios
2. I updated the wireless network adapter
3. Reinstalled the video driver

This time I didn't got a blue screen and it installed everything but shadowplay.

What does shadowplay do and how can I fix this? Microsoft told me to reinstall directX and then try again, but it didn't work...

I'm having the same problem. After updating the nVidia drivers I rebooted, I got the "Republic of Gamers" splash screen and it stuck in there. My GeForce experience automatic updater stopped working several months back and because I bought the topaz video upscaler, their support suggested me to install the newest driver. I have a GeForce 1070 and it's supposed to be compatible with the newest nVidia drive.

 

@JustinThyme I'm not too computer savvy... what is DDU?

 

Thanks in advance.
