Have you tried a clean install rather than an upgrade? There have been a lot of changes to the Nvidia drivers, which makes an upgrade even risiker than before.

Thanks for the response. which is the other way to solve the problem. Am not ready to do a fresh installation. Is it a problem with nVidia drivers?
