No video on Windows 8 after installing drivers

Hello,
I've just done my first Richland build, specs in signature, and freshly installed Windows 8 on it. Upon first boot, it just uses a generic display driver and all seems to work ok, except, I cannot rate my computer, it breaks with some error that it couldn't test playback performance.
So, I've then downloaded the latest driver pack for my 64-bit Windows 8 OS, installed it, accepted the offer to reboot, got the usual message, and then the display went black and into standby. If I switch it off, and back on, I can see the windows splash screen for a split second before it goes black again.
I can use the latest restore point, and I at least get display, but if I reinstall the drivers, same thing happens again.
Seeing I don't seem to be able to figure out what is wrong, I wanted to at least test this under Windows 7. Installed a fresh copy of Windows 7, display is there, rating works, but graphics performance sections are rated 1.0. Went and installed the latest driver pack, no issues, rated my system again, and graphics performance is now rated 6.8, which is about what is to be expected for integrated.
So, seeing this all at least seems to work under Windows 7, does anyone have any idea as to why this isn't working under Windows 8, and what I might be missing?
Thanks!
[Edit]
It seems I didn't wait long enough on Windows 7. Have got the exact same symptoms on Windows 7 now.
Either the new drivers simply are buggy (possibly, seeing it's a brand new APU), or my new APU has a dodgy GPU on board, which may hold up in BIOS mode, and being utterly underutilized by the generic driver?
I don't really want to RMA my new APU if it's just a driver issue. But how to be sure?
Anything else anyone can think of I could try? Or is there actually a way to test your onboard GPU for hardware errors?

GrG, did you use the MSI chipset drivers or AMD drivers for IGP?

Just to make explicit note, I had no luck with this driver set either.

Sure but I have updated my bios through MSI live and it put an old one insted of the newest, so now my richland cpu is not supported :S
For real? You've used live update to update to the latest BIOS and it updated your 2.x BIOS to 1.x? AFAIK, the current last BIOS you can auto-update to is 1.7, but I imagined it would only let you update if your BIOS version is < 1.7, seeing it clearly states that once you've gone to 2.x, you cannot go back to 1.x. If it really did that, I'd consider that to be a serious bug MSI should really fix. Why on earth would they break Richland support if you've got a Richland APU in your board on update?

thisway first I have to flash a new bios somehow. After that I am gonna deal with the graphics driver. However I am very disappointed with MSI services and products so far
Sorry about your separate issue, if I was in your shoes, I'd be extremely disappointed with MSI too. In my case, my current disappointment is slightly offset by previous good experience.
That aside, I've made a little progress on my issue. With the default BIOS settings, the most my display ever held up before dropping out was as long as it took to run a full 3DMark 11 test. Not sure how long exactly, but it would have been well under 30 minutes, and I managed that once maybe. Most of the time, it dropped out straight on login. Now, I've managed to push the maximum time of having a stable display to around 4 hours, simply by turning AMD Cool'n'Quiet off in the BIOS settings. Initially, I thought it fixed it, once I went past two hours, but around the 4 hour mark, bang, display dropped out again.
So, if disabling AMD Cool'n'Quiet can make such a big difference, what might that mean? And what else then could I possibly try in the hopes of getting a stable display? Anyone else having any other ideas?
Any suggestions are most certainly appreciated!

HT5628 After running bootcamp, DVD drive is detected by Windows 8. But after installing drivers, no longer can detect. Device Manager shows that DVD drive is unplugged! Drivers in Bootcamp "removed" the DVD drive!

After running bootcamp, DVD drive is detected by Windows 8. But after installing drivers, no longer can detect. Device Manager shows that DVD drive is unplugged! Drivers in Bootcamp “removed” the DVD drive. I think there is an issue because I reinstalled Windows 8. If I don't install driver, then I have reduced functionality (no Apple keyboard, no sound etc), but once I install driver, I lose my DVD drive.

Hi, guys, I have had the exact same problem since the summer of 2010. Here's what I was able to find out.
Deleting upper/lower filters, running all those Fix Ya programs and other Microsoft crap is useless. This problem is most certainly has nothing to do with registry of any software on your computer. I took my HP 9620us to a couple of repair places and, they tried a lot of things and it appears that the root of this problem is a faulty motherboard connection. Of course, it costs about 400 bucks to fix it so I'm not sure I want to pay this kind of money.
Anyway, if somebody was able to fix it PLEASE post here to let us know. Again I am 99 per cent sure it's some piece of hardware in the motherboard.

I just bought a 15" macbook pro, do the cds that come with the mac have the drivers i need to update windows after installing windows using boot camp?

What DVDs are this ?
If it is OSX Snow Leopard Installation DVD then yes this disc contains the BootCamp Drivers version 3.x and is needed after the installation of Windows to install the BootCamp Drivers.
With OSX Lion BootCamp is at version 4.x and the BootCamp Drivers have to be downloaded during use of the BootCamp Assistant in OSX.

Old X-Fi Platinum unrecognized even after installing drivers

Old X-Fi Platinum unrecognized even after installing drivers? I've got an old X-Fi Platinum card I bought more than 2 years ago (Model SB0460). When I first installed it a couple years ago (on Windows XP), it worked fine for a few months, then I started having issues about every 5th bootup where the card wasn't recognized. Simply restarting the computer would usually work. But after awhile, it finally quit being recognized. I thought maybe it was a problem with the drivers, which were old and buggy, so I took the card out and shelved it for a year and a half. I re-installed it today using the new drivers (2.8.0008), and everything installs fine until I reboot. Then I get the same old "Found new Hardware: Multimedia Audio Controller" popup every time, and the X-Fi drivers (that were there before the reboot) are nowhere to be found in the device manager list. ?
Is this a hardware problem or a software problem? This is a fairly new XP installation, and I spent weeks doing new installs and reformats a couple years ago when I had the original problem and that never helped, so I'm thinking it must be either the card is dead or a hardware conflict. FWIW, I'm using a Dell XPS 40 with the onboard audio disabled in the bios. Thanks.

I have the same problem! Running 32-bit XP SP2, Core 2 Duo with ASUS P5B Deluxe, with a MIDI keyboard plugged into the Li'veDri've of my X-Fi Platinum. Driver version 5.2.6.87 from 8/7/2006. Everything else on my computer works after I come back from standby, but not MIDI input. Most infuriating. The worst part is I know this will never be fixed...

Will effect software to be erase in windows after install Leopard?

Any idea will effect those software are installed will be erased in windows section? like have to reinstall back all the software again or reformat the windows after installed the Leopard? Please advise if somebody know about it. Thank you in advance.

Installing Mac OS X 10.5 will not erase the Windows partition or anything on it; only using the Disk Utility to erase the partition or repartition the drive will.

I have the same problem with my T400 updated to Win 7 pro. Not happy.

2010 Mac Pro Boot Camp - Refuses to boot Windows after installing Boot Camp drivers

Hey all,
I have a quad 3.2Ghz 2010 Mac Pro with a Radeon 5870 and 8 GB RAM.
I have 2 10000RPM WD Raptor drives, the first drive is my Lion boot drive. The 4th bay contains the second Raptor which has Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit installed. Bay 2 has Time Machine, bay 3 has a Windows backup drive.
I had first installed Windows and the Boot Camp drivers a few months ago and everything was humming along smoothly. Monday I tried to boot into Windows and it crashed immediately after the black Booting Windows screen started to change to the login window. This happened repeatedly. Nothing changed on the system that I am aware of. Whenever I tried to boot windows again, it booted into the repair mode. That did not seem to work because after running the repair it would still not boot.
So I did what is usually required of Windows, and that was to reinstall. I reformatted the hard drive, ran Boot Camp assistant, and started the install.
Everything was peachy so far, so I tried to reinstall the Boot Camp drivers (4.0). Did a reboot. Same problem. Doh!
So I did ANOTHER reinstall, and everything was fine. But this time I tried to install the Boot Camp drivers off the os install disc that came with my Mac (3.1). Still no go!
So finally I did my third reinstall and after that I did not install Boot Camp drivers. However, I did load up the CD and individually installed drivers for the Apple Mouse, Apple Keyboard, Cinema Display, etc. No problems whatsoever. Everything is actually still humming along fine.
So it looks like running the full Boot Camp install for some reason no longer works. Which means I am missing the Apple Boot Camp control panel, but that's not really a big deal. Althought it's quite annoying to not have the functionality of the special Mac keyboard keys like volume control, etc.
Has anyone run into this? I thought it might be a hardware problem but my Mac OS X OS exhibits no problems whatsoever.
Thanks!

Thank you to The hatter.
I have a Mac Pro mid 2010 with a SSD and several internal hard disks. For some time I was trying to install Windows 7 on a fresh boot camp volume on a new WD 7200rpm 1TB hard disk. It was taking hours to install, and then I had a series of failures to reboot that proved permanent. The Window Repair utility would come up and took forever to repair the volume - but failed to actually do so, requiring completion reinstallation of the bootcamp volume. This occurred three times, between 1 day and 2 months after installation. I had already moved the Windows drive in to drive slot 1 of the Mac Pro.
Eventually I gave up and installed boot camp on a secondary partition of the SSD. This worked fine, however is limited in capacity. So yesterday I thought I would try to install Windows on the hard disk again. The Windows installer took many hours to do its thing, and eventually a message came up that the installation had failed.
I took your tip about possible hard disk failure, and ran Techtool Pro surface scan. It turns out that there are lots of bad blocks being reported. According to Micromat's documentation, the bad blocks being reported are those that may be in critical areas of the disk that cannot be mapped out. They recommend low level reinitialisation (with zeros) to map out the bad blocks, if possible. I am now running Apple's Disk Utility to do this, and fingers crossed that this reinitialisation succeeds, or I will have to replace the drive.

Trackpad+keyboard not responding after installing drivers from Leopard DVD

I've just installed the Windows XP (SP2) drivers from my Mac OS X DVD (10.5.2), just sitting and watching as it progressed. When the final notice appears, saying that I am to press "finish" to exit the setup, I discover that the trackpad is unresponsive and so is the keyboard (I have a 15" MacBook Pro). I tried pressing the "shut off" button on my MBP and it turned off immediately. After starting up again I tried to connect a mouse using both USB-ports with no results.
I.e., there's no response from either USB port, nothing from the trackpad and nothing from the keyboard. Please help

Yes same here. Installed new trackpad driver on 18th Dec and the trackpad has had HUGE issues - unresponsive after resuming from hibernation in Vista. Takes about 5-10 minutes to sort itself out. Horrendous!!

I checked the forums at NI and found a similar problem with a computer with Windows Vista installed. I have Windows XP Professional installed on the computer, but tried the update through the self updating feature of the NI software.
After the update the problem remains exactly the same.
To find out more about the error, I checked several Windows properties to identify the cause of the problem. One thing I found was on the Services control, under Administrative Tools. After the error message during boot, the services window shows up 2 services whose status is "Stopping" and the startup type is "Automatic". This services are:
Lookout Citadel Driver
National Instruments Time Sincronization
I'm using an IBM ThinkPad T30 (Type 2366-BG1) with Windows XP Professional with 768Mb of memory, 80GB HDD.
Can anyone give me some hints on this matter?
Thank you in advance.

Good morning.
I tried the steps suggested but the problem remained. I then decided to try some aditional steps and apparently the problem is solved. I describe the steps I took bellow.
The problem was related to my antivirus / firewall solution, Panda Antivirus + Antispyware 2007.
1. I changed the previously mentioned Windows services startup to "Manual" instead of "Automatic".
2. Rebooted the computer.
3. Opened the services control in Administrative Tools.
4. Selected the first service "Citadel..." and pressed the "Start" button.
5. After a few seconds, the firewall solution presented a window stating that the program was attempting to access the internet (or my LAN). I selected "Always allow".
6. I repeated this step for all the others NI services. Some produced the same feedback, others didn't.
7. Changed the startup type of the services to the values I had written down before.
8. Rebooted the computer and everything worked fine.
It seems my firewall solution is unable to cope with a program trying to access the Internet (or network) before a user logs in.
Thank you for your support.
Best regards,
Alexandre Ventura

Hp 2000 fails to bring up windows after installing SEP64 antivirus.

After restarting just after installing SEP64 Antivirus, computer comes up with failed to launch Windows. Options were cancel or go back to a good starting point. But, nothing seems to work...it just ends up showing HP in a circle with no "Thinking" indication. How can I get this HP 2000 laptop to get back to normal?

I spent 2.5 hours on the phone with HP tech support last . Starting with changing the Bios date to 6/1/2006 and then started the recovery (3rd) time. All look great unitl midnight when i went to bed . It had loaded and ejected all 4 disks. THE software installation was running. This mornig I had a Recovery failed message. Waiting fo rTech support to call me back (They are late). I can't do a refresh of windows 8 because the recovery has formatted the hard drive and you cannot get to an options screen. We havent reloaded any BIOS settings yet. I am still waiting for tech support to call Case # 3017584806

Photos & Videos clarity reduced after installing iOS 5.1 to iPad2?

Has anyone noticed that after installing iOS 5.1 and updating your iPad2 with it the clarity in your photos and videos has gone bad?
Is it due to that iOS 5.1 is primarily optimized for the new iPad's Retina display which is probably creating mess for display clarity of iPad2?
I haven't seen the new iPad display yet so no chance of comparing the two and then feeling this way. Pls suggest if there is anything which a user need to do to get this fixed or if Apple would like to look into this and fix it by rolling out quick new iOS update.
Thank you!

No such problem with my iPad 2 running 5.1.

Fix the: Cannot view PDFs in Safari Window after installing CS3

All,
To fix the problem of displaying PDF files in Safari after installing CS3.
Open Adobe Acrobat 8 and then go to the preference menu, on the left hand side look for internet, select this option and then UNCHECK the options to use to open PDFs.
Apply and quit Adobe Acrobat 8. Quit Safari if still running and then reopen. What Safari does now is use the default settings and will open the PDFs as before.

If it's not essential that the Adobe plugin handles PDF files then try turning off the plugin support via Adobe Reader preferences -> Internet -> Unselect the option to handle PDF files (sorry, I'm not on a Mac to quote the exact text but it's words to that effect).
If no other plugins handle PDFs, Safari should pick up the slack and handle them natively.

Blue Screen after Installing Drivers Windows 7

So I am running Bootcamp 3. I have installed Windows 7 Home Premium. After I install the drivers from the Apple OS X CD and restart I get a blue screen of death. I can reboot in safe mode. I can boot into Windows normally but it crashes after about 45 seconds.
I have tried this on two identical Mac Pro. When it crashes it sites Cache_Manager.
Any help would be appreciated.

I have tried this on two identical Mac Pro. When it crashes it sites Cache_Manager.
