Game running at very low FPS but high UPS after crash

I was playing Factorio using the DyWorld mod. The game froze and my computer wouldn't respond to any inputs (including CRT, ALT, DLT) so I did a hard power cycle. When I started up Factorio after this the game is running at extremely low FPS (less than 3) but the UPS is consistently 60. I've never had an issue like this before.

One thing that could have caused a problem: when I did the hard power cycle it caused a new windows update to apply.

Things I've tried:
Checking/verifying Windows update
Checking/verifying driver updates
Verifying Factorio game files on Steam
Uninstalling Factorio and reinstalling
Uninstalling Factorio and deleting files from .roaming and reinstalling

None of those have fixed the problem.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Is it at 3 fps regardless of which world/savefile you are playing, even if you start a brand new one?

Would you share your logfile with us ?

Without a logfile, it's only a guess: It may be your GPU failed (that's the moment your PC crashed), is defective now, and is now running in some kind of emergency fallback mode until replaced.
