It deleted all my custom resolution settings, and every time I try to re-enter the settings it says test failed (see screenshot). so that's why I downloaded the CRU, in the hopes that it could override the settings.

CRU is not for downsampling. It's for adding monitor resolutions. The monitor must support the resolution. I don't think the ASUS VH232 can handle higher resolutions. You have to use the NVIDIA control panel to add downsampled resolutions.

You already have 2560x1440 @ 60 Hz as a detailed resolution. Why are you trying to add it as a standard resolution? You only need it in one place. It's not possible to define 2560x1440 as a standard resolution.

If you're using HDMI, you also need to add an HDMI support data block in the custom extension block for 2560x1440 @ 60 Hz to work without patching the driver, or you can just import this file: https://www.monitortests.com/hdmi.dat

But I'm a bit stumped as to how I can get them working again. I'm still a bit of a noob when it comes to troubleshooting my computer problems. I have Windows 10 Home, an Asus VH232 Monitor and Geforce GTX 960 graphics card.

The latest NVIDIA driver is broken for custom resolutions. Install 358.50 until they fix it.
