Driver issues with Ubuntu 22.04 on dual boot system post windows update

Hi All,

I have a dual boot setup running windows & Ubuntu 22.04. And since an update on the windows side I can’t seem to get the drivers for my nvidia working anymore on the Ubuntu side. I’ve been following the steps in Nvidia Driver is not working on Ubuntu 22.04
because it seemed like a similar issue but not sure what else I can do outside of reinstalling ubuntu. I’ve attached the bug report from the nvidia script below but I’m still pretty “rookie” level when it comes to linux and these bug reports. Many thanks in advance.

Some more information:
Laptop: Dell G16
Nivida card: NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 4070

CLI outputs when trying to debug:

nvidia-smi
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.
uname -r
