    Probably U had installed wrong drivers. Uninstall it first.
    1. sudo apt-get remove nvidia*
    Copy the Code

    And, U now should determine by Urself wether U install a Nvidia driver below or not.

    Input
    1. sudo apt-get install nvidia*
    Copy the Code
    And choose one type, probably nvidia-331 or nvidia-343 and so on.
    Taste and test them one by one... :? Untill the system being good.

    BTW: If U smoothly use the system with the driver that deepin comes with, U shouldn't install any extra Nvidia driver.
