PC cannot boot after nvidia driver update.

Hello,

So i started the nvidia driver update through the nvidia app. It was a bit buggy a week ago when the download wouldnt finish and clicking on refresh did nothing.

Today i opened the nvidia app again, still buggy but after clicking the refresh button it suddendly worked and i started the driver update and went to smoke a ciggarete, 5minutes later the pc was turned off, screen black and the cpu light was blinking, making a beep sound and turning itself off every 2 seconds and restarting.

I think in the beginning i got one time to the windows log in screen but then it started again.

I do not know if the fault is the gpu driver update or it is unreleated.

I took out the gpu (5070 TI) and connected hdmi to cpu, which has igpu. ( i5 13500)

I checked all the cables they are still all connected properly to the psu and motherboard.

I reset the BIOS with holding a screwdriver to the pins and taking out the cmos battery.

PC:

i5 13500

RTX 5070 TI

DDR 5 2 x 16 GB Ram

B760 gaiming x ax motherboard

be queit straight power 12 psu
