Nvidia update screen problem


I updated my Nvidia driver on my satellite, and now I get a black vertical stripe on the right side of my screen. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Is the rest of the picture ok, or is it off the side of the screen? You may just need to move or resize the picture, that's what I have to do after installing the drivers.

thanks for the tip. The rest of the screen is fine. I just have that black vertical stripe on the side.
