Good idea, I'll give that a try.
No. The article is about a fresh install of Win 7 on an 8th generation mobo. On my installed version I was using Intel drivers for the mobo video and NVidia drivers for the GEForce card.
However, when I booted the installed version, it ran fine with the installed NVidia card connected to the monitor, right up to the logon screen. Of course, I could not get past that screen because I have no USB 3 drivers installed. Apparently the Intel USB 3 drivers on the 8th gen mobo handle USB 2 as well.
What you say is a consideration, however. The Intel drivers listed are for the mobo video but the graphics looked fine through my NVidia card right to the logon screen. I was surprised.
I'll have to find the link again. The package is Intel_VGA_Graphics_21.20.16.4839_43 and I had to add a line under the Windows 7 install section in the INF file
'%iKBLULTGT2% = iSKLD_w7, PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_5917'
Ok....here's original link to the PDF file with instructions.
