Hi sIII
It taken a long time to sort the problem out but you got there with your patience and tenacity.

Went to Device Manager, and uninstalled the video device.

Could you just confirm that you uninstalled as in the picture.
R e-booted your system, and used the roll back button?
The problem has always been the 382.05 updated driver.
The question until now was how to resolve this problem.
The point of interest for me is why you could not roll back to your previous driver like I was able to do in about 30 seconds.
For some reason your 378.02 driver was not being allowed to be re-installed which does not make sense as Microsoft before installing updates automatically creates restore points which would save your previous driver.
Was 378.02 hidden behind the roll back but locked out?
The answer would seem to be for those who cannot roll back to their previous driver manually is to uninstall the current incompatible driver, reboot the system, Check which driver is installed and if necessary use the roll back feature.
Unfortunately there is no guarantee that this problem will not occur again in the future if you have the Windows 10 Home Edition as you cannot just switch off Microsoft driver updates unless you make changes in the Registry.
There is a Zipped download with 2 authenticated applications available that can do this automatically for you.
Stop Automatic Driver Updates > Registry Files
1. Turns driver updates off.
2. Turns driver updates on.
