Download the EP0000551558.exe file to a temporary or download directory (please note this directory for reference).The Taskbar should be clear of applications before proceeding. To ensure that no other program interferes with the installation, save all work and close all other programs.And no, I am not gonna switch to 7x86 because the full amount of RAM is not usable in 32 bits OS's. The only thing that's a problem is the lack of GPU drivers. Why are you (Intel) still refusing to make a GPU driver for this motherboard for any OS besides 7x86? This motherboard can run 7圆4 without problems. Now I haven't tested much, Windows starts, graphics performance increased and Patience is no longer nagging about crappy graphics, gonna try more tomorrow. Safe-mode -> delete GPU driver -> no more BSOD, but crappy graphics performance due to the standard Windows driver being used again.Īfter a second attempt, not using the driverinstaller but let the device manager install the driver, it seems to run without problems, didn't get BSOD's anymore.

after running the driverinstaller and a reboot, I got a BSOD. Then I found someone on this forum who linked to a beta driver (GFX_Vista_Win7_64_8._Beta5.exe) that supposedly supports this particular GPU. Not long after that I found out that Intel refuses to make 64 bit GPU drivers for this motherboard, while there are 64bit chipset, LAN and sound-drivers available. Those are so basic that even Patience starts complaining about the lack of graphics performance. After installing 7圆4 I was surprised not seeing unidentified hardware (that's a first for me with Windows), however, I noticed straight away that Windows was using the build-in GPU drivers. Today I found out that I have a motherboard that is 64bit capable, but lacks 64bit GPU drivers.
