MBPr 15 2012 black screen in games/3d apps on Windows 10

Legacy(BIOS) installed Windows 10 with Bootcamp

Windows 10 black screen after drivers installed Please help. I have tried installing windows 10 multiple times (october edition) and it booted up fine on my macbook pro 2012 retina 15inch base model. When I install bootcamp, I get Nvidia 650M gpu drivers. When I reboot with these gpu drivers installed, I receive a blackscreen on boot. I know its due to the fact its the GPU drivers because I Have already installed windows 10 multiple times. What can I do? I have used device manager to find latest drivers, I have installed nvidia geforce experience and installed drivers via that, but still black screen. To summarise: Computer: Macbook Pro retina mid 2012 base model. Issues: GPU driver issues. Problems: GPU Driver problems and Audio output problems. To install windows, I made a windows bootable installer USB disk, boot into the USB disk, format an ExFAT partition as NTFS, install windows. Setup windows, etc. Install bootcamp. My other issue is that audio does not output either.

Screen goes black for a few seconds then comes back on. I've noticed an issue as of late that is happening on my late 2019 16" Macbook Pro. So far the most repeatable instance of this occurring is when I open the program Photoshop (CC). When I open the app, the loading page pops up and it begins loading the application. Then, the screen shuts off (goes dark) for about 1-2 seconds, then comes back on like nothing happened and the app opens shortly after as usual. This is pretty consistent with photoshop but I believe it has happened in other instances where I am loading something. I've tried to reset my "System management controller" my "Pram" and (I think) I've booted in safe mode too. The problem still occurs.... I am concerned as this has never happened before (I've had 3 macbooks in the past) and this computer is brand new too... Just for your reference this is the 2.3GHz 8-core i9 with 32Gb ddr4 ram so there is no reason this computer should have trouble loading a program with no other applications open at the same time.... Any ideas what the issue is or how to remedy?

Blackscreen of death when going to Perform or Layout screens About a week ago my MacBook Pro (Mojave version 10.14.3) started going to a blackscreen every time I go to the layout or perform screen in mainstage (it has been working fine for 6 months). Note that when I had the laptop set to auto-start last applications then it would also go to the blackscreen after a restart. I turned that off and now I can get into the laptop and start mainstage. I've not added any additional external instruments in months. Also, when I save I get the black screen of death. Lastly, when I get the black screen of death it is hard to get back to the login screen. It will either not start or start (show the apple symbol and progress bar), beg about half way and then go back to black screen. After trying that a few times it will eventually get back to the login screen. I've tried several recommendations for getting the black screen of death from other forums, but since it can be predictably created from mainstage I think it is related to this. Applications showed no recent updates (not since 1/3) of any apps. What have I tried? I tried creating a new concert off a minimal keyboard one. No luck. I tried deleting my preference file. Restarted the laptop. Reopened Mainstage. Same issue. Reinstalled Mainstage Ensured all audio devices are set to built in. I currently do not have it attached to any external devices. Added a new user profile. Opened Mainstage from there. Same issue. I'm mainly using built-in sounds and Omnisphere. Please help!
