Windows 7 and ATI 4770 = blank screen
There is a slight problem with my computer...it boots up to the point where I select the OS (Windows 7 is the only one) and once selected the typical moving green bar appears in the bottom center of the screen for a brief second then goes to a blank screen with a white moveable cursor. Safe mode also produces the same result, just a larger cursor...which tells me the OS is at least loading.
The system boots to a c:>\ through the install CD allowing for options through the command line. Been through all the repair options including rebuilding the MBR. Never thought that was the problem but gave it a try just in case. What I really suspect is the ATI driver failed. It is v9.7 which was apparently not quite ready for prime time. Now the question is how do I disable it using the command line to allow for a generic Windows 7 driver to take over? Once I get into the system the driver can be upgraded to 9.9. Suggestions greatly appreciated. Thanks!! Mike |
