(I'm doing this from a windows-7 box)

This morning, I did my weekly patches for my f-39 stand-alone workstation.  No problems.

Then I did the upgrade to f-40.  I did not sit there and watch it. During the automatic reboot, it booted using the nouveau driver rather than the kmod one from rpm fusion non-free.  During the post-upgrade task "remove-retired-packages", the workstation apparently crashed. Upon rebooting, it came up in console(?) mode; I could not get into graphics mode.

I shutdown again, and tried to boot into f-39.  But it came up f-40, console mode.

I  have neither "live" media nor installation media; last time I tried them, they didn't work.  F-40 console mode and window-7 are all I have to work with.

How do I get this workstation working properly in Fedora?

Also of note...

After the upgrade to f-40, my grub menu shows one f-40 entry, one f-39 entry, and a windows-7 entry.  But both Fedora entries boot to an f-40 console.  I assume it's a normal console window, but I'm not certain.

There's only one installed system. All those entries do is choose which kernel and initramfs it will use to boot.
