So I'm building an HTPC for my parents...it's a fairly budget-minded HTPC: 2x2GB DDR2-800, Athlon II X2 250, and an HD 5450 low-profile card. Windows installs fine and I can use Windows after it installs without a problems on the standard VGA adapter driver, but after I reboot after installing the AMD driver I get a BSOD just as the desktop is about to load...I've tried reinstalling Windows multiple times, not sure what else to do...help?
