Intel Desktop Board D510MO/Windows 7 Video issue

I've got my hands on a D510MO board running windows 7, I did a reformat on it, and it went through that fine, the issue is as soon as it loaded proper video drivers, it displays only black.

The monitor doesn't go into sleep mode, it just displays a pure black screen. It works fine in safe mode, It works fine in regular mode with the "default" drivers (no drivers) loaded, It appears as black after booting into windows about halfway into loading the OS (when it loads the video drivers, I assume).

Facts: Video works in instances when the video driver is not the intel 3150 driver (Safe mode, driver deleted/not loaded in regular mode)

Video does not work in regular mode with the drivers loaded, or VGA 640x800 mode.

The monitor does not enter sleep mode, or display a "no input" signal, but instead remains active displaying a black screen, as if that is what is being output from the board.

I have tried both the archived drivers and current drivers on Intel's site. Neither work.

I have not tried third party drivers

The board has been RMA'D and the second one is doing the EXACT same thing. I've googled the issue and nobody else seems to have it. (searches like "windows 7 D510MO no video" turn up nothing related)

The only thing I haven't done is swap the RAM, but the system boots fine and acts fine without the video drivers loaded so i really don't have a clue why that would be the issue.

I'm pretty darn close to calling Intel and having somebody from their figure this out with me, if I could get this done with your help I'd appreciate it.


What are the chances both boards are bad with the exact same video issue.

Hi.

I have the same problem. After I updated Win7, either via driver download or windows update, the computer will go blank on the next reboot. I have tried both 32 and 64 bit windows 7. This is a critical bug, and I am very dissapointed since it renders the computer useless

Hi,

I am in moving, so I don't know where it is at present. Could you upload it somewhere so that I could download it please?

Tony

Oh sorry, I have Win 7 64 bit.

There you go, that should be the file you're looking for, just clean out the old driver and run the setup file in it after unzipping. Good luck.

the weird thing is that this update has been out for a long while, it hasn't worked on any D510MO board i've tried it on, and there's NOTHING on google about it before i started this thread. I've had 3/3 boards with the new drivers go totally blank, but it's like nobody else had this problem till you.

The drivers that are causing the problem aren't new either, I think they're from like december of last year, so I was pretty darn stumped about how I was the only one with the issue.

I haven't let intel know about the issue but that's not a bad idea.

To be honest with you, I reinstalled the original drivers, turned off the update, and gave the PC back to it's owner, and haven't heard any complaints yet, so I figure that the original driver is the best way to go, especially if updating the bios only gives you more trouble with no forseeable benifit.

oh wow this is from a long time ago. Yeah i'll see if I can't find that CD sometime today and up that.

Amazed they're still having this issue. This isn't going to raise the opinion level of the Atom chipsets anytime soon.
