Black screen after installing 8.15.10.2086

[idata]

Add me to the list of people who get a black screen....

HP G60t-200CTO

Windows 7 64 bit.

I uninstalled the previous intel driver (8.15.10.1986) and installed 8.15.10.2086.. and got a black screan... grrr... Other older intel drivers have worked just fine so I don't agree that it's a special vendor bios issue.

If the people with the black screen issue would post their configs.. and let Intel know.. Maybe we can get this fixed.

Sony VGN-SR210D

Win 7 x64

Installed 2082 using windows update. Got the black screen and must use safe mode to see.

Later I went on the intel site (in safe mode) and looked for updates. 2086 was available. Installed 2086. Still black screen and must use safe mode to see, again.

Same issue here with a new Gateway NV5905h laptop. Had to go back to the driver that shipped with it. The two latest Intel HD drivers boot to a black screen.

[idata]

yea the latest 2 intel drivers boot to black....can anyone give me a link of the one from january that's the only that will work but it looks like intel removed it from their site..they only have the latest 2

OH AND I HAVE AN ACER 5740 CORE I5 430M

Last night I let windows 7 patch itself.. and it wanted to apply an Intel series 4 graphics driver version 2082... I thought well iif Microsoft is recommending it.. they should know if it works ok.. I let it patch itself and black screen.. So I had to revert to a restore point before.

I did the exact same thing.

Now I'm just stuck with 2021, which screen tears when I standby for too long, but at least there's no black screen.

i'm having the same problem. i bought this laptop so i could play games on it as well but i needed this driver for need for spee shift. installed it then the screen went black and i couldn't see a thing. had to go to safe mode and system restore.

[idata]

same here i have the core i5 430m and the integrated graphics witch i can't update cause i get a black screen

so right now i'm rolling with generic vga video drivers.

[idata]

I also have the same problem with the 2 latest drivers. I have an Acer 5740, i3-330m.

Hi, same here......

Compaq CQ60-417ca

CPU: Intel T4200

GPU: Intel 4500

OS: Dualboot Win7x64/WinXPx86

On Win7 the screen turn to black and on WinXP the rez goes to 640x480 4-bit 1Hz

[idata]

I have the same problem with the 2 latest drivers(8.15.10.2082 & 8.15.10.2086 ) , Sony VGN-FW190N Win7 32bit

[idata]

Funny how so much people are having this problem and Intel isn't replying back to us.

[idata]

Add one more to that. Same problem here.

[idata]

I hope (at least) they are working on it.

[idata]

I'M HAVING EXACTLY THE SAME PROBLEM AFTER INSTALLING THE UPDATE. I HAD TO RESTORE THE SYSTEM TO RECOVER MY COMPUTER SO WINDOWS 7 WOULD START-UP PROPERLY.

[idata]

you could have just started windows in safe mode and rolled back the driver.

please intel fix this problem

[idata]

This is yet another confirmation that 8.15.10.2086, whether from Intel's site or Windows Update, hangs up after going to a blank screen. In my case, it is 64-bit Windows 7 Home Premium on an Acer Aspire 5740-5509 (Core i3-330m).

I've tried several times and each time resorted to F8 during boot-up to go into Safe mode, and then using Control Panel/Recovery to go to a previous restore point.

[idata]

yeah, the latest driver version for windows7 GMA HD is really buggy, i experienced a lot of stuttering when playing warcraft:frozen throne that gma hd can handle so easy even when doing desktop work like browsing and MS office. pls tel Intel to update their version

[idata]

I suffer from this problem as well. I originally installed the updated driver to fix another issue, but just rolled it back when it caused this issue (BTW, be sure to delete the driver when you uninstall in safe mode, otherwise it'll get reinstalled). But pushing it out through Windows Update? Most computer users wouldn't have the first idea of how to uninstall the driver.

My configuration: Win7 Professional 64 bit on a Sony FW270J (4500 MHD graphics). 8.15.10.2021 works fine (in regards to this issue).

i can't play need for speed shift without this driver so they better hurry i didn't pay for nothing
