Updated Zorin last night, performance now completely destroyed

At this point, you have the option of using that Prompt to your advantage.

Completely remove Nvidia drivers:
sudo apt remove --purge '^nvidia-.*'

Ensure you have the repository for the Nvidia 555 driver:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa

Install the 555 driver (using DKMS for Dynamic Kernel Module Support):

sudo apt update && sudo apt install nvidia-driver-555 nvidia-dkms-555

I recommend using the X-Swat team updates... Mesa and the like...

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/updates

sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade
