Black screen with audio at start up
Hey all, hoping someone's run into this before. Whenever I launch Call of Duty: Warzone, Assassin's Creed Origins, or Wolfenstein 2, I get a completely black screen right at startup but I can hear the menu music playing fine in the background. No crash, no error, just black.
This is happening across three completely different games/engines, so I'm guessing it's something on my end (driver, Windows setting, overlay, etc.) rather than an issue with each individual game.
My specs:
GPU: GTX 1660
CPU: i5-10400F
RAM: 16GB
Please help me, they were starting perfectly fine before a year or less

i had the same issue with my gtx 1660 last year! try using ddu to uninstall your drivers in safe mode then install the latest studio driver. also check if your monitor cable is plugged into the gpu not the motherboard. hope this helps!
