    So that didn't work either. Same issues. Though something I noticed, when updating the driver and looking at compatible Intel drivers, they have different labels:

    2006 (Default) Standard VGA Graphics Adapter
    2010 (PB Site) Intel (R) Graphics Media Accelerator HD
    2012 Intel (R) HD Graphics 0.15.10.2622
    2013 Intel (R) HD Graphics 0.15.10.2993

    This could just be labeling over the years though.

    Takes around a minute to boot on the 2006 driver.

    Maxie, do you have any idea why the error doesn't come up in Safe mode?

    What are the chances the driver issue is virus related, and the resolution is monitor related. There's no other monitor I can test but I doubt it'd be that anyway.

    Yes minimal set of Drivers is loaded in safe mode ... Can you Post me a screenshot of your Desktop .. The Link below will help you achieve this ... I doubt that it is a Virus .. .. And if there are errors under the Display Adapter could be the Driver or the card is failing .. Dont worry we do not give up that easy ..

    I install Intel Chipset Device Software from your link, but it seems like nothing happens at all; is it actually loading a driver of some sort, as it is very quick?

    Hi there Lets see what Version you have Installed ..




    Type regedit in the start search box

    Once in the Registry Editor expand "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE"

    Next Expand "SOFTWARE"

    Next Expand "INTEL"


    Click on "Infinst"

    On the right hand side of the screen you will see which Version

    Yep, that's the version giving me errors. Using Avast Basic. Shall I try uninstalling that and proceeding?
