Probook 4730s
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi all,

I have a Probook HP4730s and I have just upgraded to windows 10.

 

I have installed a SSD

 

When on windows 7 it was lightning fast.

 

When I updated to windows 10, it has shown a problem that I am lead to belive is a graphics driver issue.

 

I start the laptop and it does the POST, then windows logo and the whirlygig thing, the the screen goes black, then a few seconds later I see that the backight turns. It is like that for about 60 - 90 seconds than you see the windows logo again and starts up.

 

I have updated the bios - no change

I have plugged in an external monitor there is nothing on the external monitor.

I have done a fresh install of windows 10 and when it has the windows graphics driver it seems to work fine, as soon as it updates to the intel driver it has this problem.

I have done a fresh install of windows 7 and updated to 10, same thing.

 

Looking on line there are no windows 10 drivers for the intel graphic chipset. I am sure I will not be the only one with this issue.

I am happy using windows 7 but it is nice having windows not nagging you to update.

 

Any other help would be appriciated.

 

It is only a 4 year old laptop so not worth dumping.

 

Once it has started up it is fine.

 

Cheers

John
