Windows 10 video tdr failure atikmpag.sys on Toshiba laptop.
Hi! This is my almost 3 year old laptop. (http://notebook-price.com/Toshiba_Satellite_M840-1006XG) Two days ago (after Windows Update) I was playing XCOM when the screen flickers and goes all 'rainbowy' before it blacks out. I hold the power button to shutdown, and when I boot it up nothing happened. After a few hard resets, it boots up to a BSOD showing the aforementioned error. The BSOD only appear a few times, telling me that the laptop will restart by itself but nothing happened and I have force-shutdown it after a while. Now, when I turn on the laptop, nothing happened on the screen. The hd indicator is lit up but other than that, nothing. On the web, most people suggested to uninstall and reinstall graphic card driver in safe mode, but I can't even enter safe mode because of Windows 10 fast startup. What to do?
Edit: I have a Win10 USB flash drive created using Media Creation Tool. I read that it can be used to boot to safe mode, but how?
