Last night Win10 installed a new update. When I logged on this morning my primary HD monitor had a black screen and secondary UHD was inactive. After several complete power downs I have a display on the primary HD monitor but Secondary UHD has halos on left & right sides of characters displayed on the screen. I am unable to color calibrate the secondary UHD screen using my Spyder4Elete. 
 
Curious if anyone else has experienced this issue with most recent update.

    Welcome to the forums..Everything's okay here..I suggest grabbing the highly acclaimed DDU and the latest NVIDIA Driver..Then disconnect from the internet..Then running DDU in Safe Mode, choosing the 'Clean and restart' option..Then installing the latest NVIDIA Driver using the Custom (Advanced) option to only install PhysX System Software along with the Graphics Driver..I'd have only one monitor connected during all that..If you have any games 'optimized' with GeForce Experience, I would 'Revert' them before running DDU.
     
    If KB4020102 is the update you're talking about (should be), you can uninstall that one from Control Panel -> Programs and Features -> View installed updates (at top-left of screen) and right-click to uninstall it to see if that is really the culprit.

    I feel your pain. The latest Windows update killed my old computer. Black screens, unable to perform backups and more. I had to build a new one. Hope you can resolve this without going to such extreme lengths. I originally thought it was the graphics driver or my old 580 GTX and jumped through all the hoops. It wasn't. When I built my new rig I had to install the 580 GTX because the 1080 TI FTW3 was on on back order. The 580 worked just fine in the new rig.

    that update is crap, it failed 11 times before it finally installed. then it broke corsair link and corrupted one of my external HHD.
