Accidentally turned off my display adapter in device manager. I can reboot but can only get to the setup screen. Windows starts to load and then blank. Screen says it has a signal but it is blank.

Boot into Safe Mode.

Then select the standard resolution in display properties.

Re-boot into Windows, and Windows should find and install your display adapter.
