Problem installing Intel HD graphics driver

    Hello

    I've purchased a new computer, namely an i3 540 on a Gigabyte H55M-S2H, without a dedicated graphics card. When I install Intel's drivers and restart (no matter which driver, I've tried them all, from both GB and Intel) Instead of my desktop I will get a black screen after the windows (7 64bit pro) logo at startup.

    Thanks for any help!

    Hi

    Did Windows come pre-installed or did you have to install it? did you instsll the Chipset driver for this model motherboard first, then reboot and install the gfx driver (use the GB one) if not try this again.
    You have been installing drivers that are 64bit versions?

    Do any devices in Device Manager have yellow ! marks, if so next to what?

    Can you boot into Safe Mode ok?

    Have you been installing any software, or has this just happened before and 3rd party software, like antivirus was installed?

    I'm having the exact same problem on my new laptop. Anything but the stock Intel HD driver boots to a black screen, but other than that, everything is fine with it. i can hit the power button and Windows shuts down just fine.

    What the heck is going on?
