Fix:

# Install proprietary Nvidia PPA drivers
# Add the PPA
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa
# Then update the package database
sudo apt update
# Finally, install proprietary Nvidia drivers
sudo apt install nvidia-381

During installation, make sure you disable UEFI secure boot and enter the same password (as you entered during installation) on reboot. Everything should ideally work!
