When everything you have tried doesnt work after you get the 'Black Screen' issue. This solution worked for me.

I downloaded version 24.0.0

It worked for me.

Shouldn't have had to download the older version when my PC is brand new (built feb 2021) but i thought id give it a go and it has worked, the only issue im facing is the brightness/gamma/contrast isnt the same as what my screen is natively.

My specs are:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 3.6 GHz 8-Core Processor
Motherboard: Asus ROG STRIX B550-E GAMING ATX AM4 Motherboard
Memory: Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16 Memory
Storage: Intel 665p 1 TB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive
Storage: Seagate BarraCuda 4 TB 3.5" 5400RPM Internal Hard Drive
Video Card: Asus GeForce RTX 3070 8 GB KO Gaming OC Video Card
Case: Asus TUF Gaming GT501 ATX Mid Tower Case
Power Supply: Asus ROG STRIX G 850 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply
Monitor: MSI Optix MAG274QRF-QD 27.0" 2560x1440 165 Hz Monitor

Downgrading, especially that far, doesn't actually solve any issue.
