Win7(64), nvdia 960. All of a sudden 90% of my games stopped working. My oldest game (GOC 1998) works using dxwnd. My newest game (For Honor-online 2017) still works, but Total War, Tropico4 and Americas Army doesnt detect my graphics card anymore. Ive reinstalled drivers,games,contacted MSFT and Nvidia support but keep getting graphics errors. I think a recent MSFt update fugged something. Has anyone else had this error? Tried to update my BIOS step by step but get the "bad command" error. That's another topic i may start.

Use DDU http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html
Install latest Nvidia drivers
Make sure you have latest chipset drivers for your motherboard installed.
If all else fails, open cmd as admin and run sfc /scannow

Sorry for delay,had sign in issues. I Installed latest Nvidia drivers multiple times using DDU.Removed gfx card, blew air in card and mobo socket and reinstalled.SFC showed no integrity violations. I tried to install intel graphics driver but i get an error saying my system isnt supported when it is; i5-4690,win7,8gb ram etc. I disconnected my IGD trying to fix this, but I had this issue before that. Still trying to figure this out – GraphicsDevice May 24 '17 at 15:47

Fixed it by doing what I was trying to avoid, reinstalled the entire OS.
It appeared to be corrupt or missing windows drivers, possibly msft vc 2008 x64,x86 version(9.0.30729.6161) and msft vc 2010 x64,x86 version(10.0.40219) along with a ton of other drivers during reinstall. It took about 3+ hours.
