    Unfortunately I am unable to roll back the update, as after the update Windows said that space was running low on C:/ drive which in fact it wasn't, and I should have checked it before doing anything. So I clicked on the info and it gave pretty much as the biggest (8gb) worth of files as "Old Windows" and I made the mistake of choosing that to free up the space. Therefore I was only able to try Fresh Start, but that comes with the problem of updating Windows automatically to the Creator's Update before me being able to even access Windows.

    To that end, I am quite certain that I have exhausted all other possibilities that I can think of, with drivers, reinstalls, adjusting and checking settings etc, as nothing else changed between two play times than what the update brought on. I do acknowledge, that I can't verify it to a 100% because I can't rollback, but I do think that I have done extensively everything else possible so far. I also scoured the internet for similar issues and I found one on BF1, which was fixed by adjusting the settings manually which didn't work for me, and one for Sims 4 and nothing from those fixes worked either. Neither have any other internet provided fixes worked that I could find on the issue on Google. 

    Though I can do a clean install of the previous version from the link you provided, I would like to not have to go through it. Of course, if it is mandatory and no other way helps, I'll then go through that in hopes it will work.

    Also, this problem doesn't occur with any other game than Battlefield 1. Every other game I have tried has worked perfectly.

    Before you do a clean install, if you do a clean boot does the problem persist with BF1?

    I tried a clean boot and unfortunately yes, yes it does. I also tried all other resolutions and refresh rates that come with them and apart from 1 or 2 weird resolutions I could have any combination without an error, except of course my monitor's native 1920x1080 with the 59.94hz.

    And furthermore what bugs me is that I can manually change the setting to 59.999999 and it will work until I edit some video setting and it refreshes it back to 59.949999 and the error returns.

    Yeah that was after I disabled them to see if it would help. I reinstalled the drivers from your link and it did not fix the issue, the Signal Input Out of Range error still appears immediately after launching BF1.

    Try pressing Alt+Enter or the following command line argument to run the game in Windowed mode.

    Right click the game, Game properties, Advanced launch options, add "-w" without the inverted commas, Save.

    I fully understand not wanting to reinstall your OS.

    I did that and the game works perfectly on windowed mode and even in borderless window mode, fullscreen remains as the issue for some reason.

    Just to let you (and possibly others) know that the new BF1 update (Turning Tides, 30th of Jan) + yesterday's (29th of Jan) NVidia driver update fixed the issue on fullscreen. I switched to fullscreen and the usual option of "1920x1080 60Hz" had reappeared (previously only 59.94 could be selected) and now fullscreen works as it did before. 

    Some have also reported that at least on HDTVs the Fall Creator's Update forces the color output to 12bpc regardless if the TV supports it. I don't know if that affects monitors too, but if someone gets this issue it could be a thing to try. From NVidia Control Panel's resolution settings, use NVidia settings and force it to 8bpc.

    @KittanN Thank you for the update, hopefully it helps anyone else with your exact setup.
