However, I then ran an update and now whenever I try to select linux mint (dual booted with windows 10) from the grub menu the screen goes black for a minute then shows the grub menu again.
When I go on advanced options and select the .20 version the system loads just fine.
I am sure that this is again a problem with the nvidia driver, and so I was wondering whether there is a solution to either rollback the update or if anyone could let me know how to make the updated system work?
