If you somehow manage to get past the black screen .. disable the problem drivers . then get lazy like me run this: http://www.drivereasy.com/ .. Update any drivers you think might be a problem. .. don't bother with the drivers that you know are giving no problems . .even if there is an update available. it's too much trouble :) |
