14.04 - Ubuntu not booting properly with GTX 970

I'm having a problem with booting into Ubuntu 14.04 through my GTX 970 graphics card. I had installed it previously onto my system along with the NVIDIA driver and it was working fine for the most part despite some hiccups but I recently tried to update some drivers but it didn't update correctly. I can't boot correctly anymore; all I get is either a black screen or a a screen with a text blinker on it (the proper name for it escapes me at the moment). I can get to the GRUB menu sometimes and have tried to update but get the errors shown here: errors. Entering through recovery mode can get me to the login screen but trying to login just brings me back to the login screen! I don't have much experience in fixing Ubuntu in this way so please help if you can. I have tried other solutions but they haven't seemed to work for me.
