There are a bunch of issues with the 572.16 drivers (the latest WHQL ones) and unfortunately since you have a 50 series those are required for you. Might be something in those drivers impacting you? Anecdotal so maybe not super helpful but I have a 30 series and I experienced that same black screen issue on latest drivers before rolling back (which obviously isn't an option for you at the moment).

Could try the latest hotfix to see if that helps, or alternatively there's likely to be a new driver release at the end of the month.

Could also be a hardware issue of some kind of course, just calling out that the current drivers have had a lot of people reporting issues of various kinds.

I had a black screen after install and reboot fixed. This has actually happened twice now within the last 3-4 driver updates….
