HP-Compag worse than MS. Usually have updates 1-2 months after MS does.

HP-Compaq still has Ver. 7.14.10.1322 release date 09-21-07( Intel release
April, 2007).
MS has Ver. 7.14.10.1364 release date 01-26-08( Intel release Otober, 2007).
Not sure when Ver 7.14.10.1500 was released, but think was July.
Intel newest Ver.7.14.10.1409 was released 01-10-08.

I suggest that you contact Compaq support and have them provide you the
latest drivers. Check their Website first they have them available there.

Were you able to load the Intel drivers from Safe Mode?
Were you able while in Safe mode to change your desktop resolution to one
that your display will accept when you boot in normal mode?

Was not able to download directly from Intel. Computer not validated
message.
Had to go roundabout to get get from Intel.
I was unable to get to safe mode until 30 minutes ago. Still cannot get
to
regular Windows. Somehow lost all my restore points, so cannot revert and
you
cannot rollback to previous driver in safe mode.

Then boot again in safe mode and set the resolution to the correct

Went to Windows Update Catalog to get driver download. Windows Update
still
has it listed as installed. When clicked link there, I got the newest
Intel
download, not the Windows Update.
After restart,everythig went normal until loading desktop and taskbar
items.
Not sure were in the process, but monitor went black and I got the
"Out of
Range" error.
Shut down computer and restarted to go to Safe Mode and restore to
before
download. Safe Mode starts, goes to Loaded \Windows\System32\Drivers
CRCDisk
sys then hangs.
Repair Startup loads files then goes to black screen.
For about 10 minutes I have been lookig at a screen with Microsoft
Corporation and the moving busy bar. tried to do Last Known Good
configuratin.

Trying to decide if I want to use my system recovery disks or take it
in
to
MicroCenter and let them work on it. Don't know this is covered in my
service
contract.

Compaq Presario SR2180Nx
Vista Home Premium
Intel Pentium D CPU (Dual Core)
RAM 3062 MB
Monitor X2gen MW19R (Wide Screen 1024 x 768 @ 59 Gz)

Received notice of driver update for 82945G chipset ver. 7.14.10.1364
today.
It is an optional download. Checked and clicked install. When the
computer
restarted after the signon screen I got a black screen with notice
signal
out
of range. User Manual for monitor says this indicates computer video
signal
exceeds frequency range of monitor.
Had to shut down computer so could restart in safemode. Then had to
use
Restore to revert to previous drivers. Also, uninstalled update.

Not sure what I am doing. Can I download and install this driver
using
Safemode with internet connection. Would I be able to change output
frequency
and how would I do it? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
