All intel graphics driver causes black screen/pixelated/pink
It's been roughly a week of research, trying different solutions to fix this problem but no dice.
Strange thing is that I am able to install the Intel driver in safe mode with no screen problems. The problem occurs only when booting into normal windows. The only exception for the screen working using normal boot is if I use the Microsoft Basic Display Adapter driver instead of the Intel HD Graphics 5500 driver.
Description of the problem (with Intel drivers installed) :
1. When I hit the login screen, I get some pixelation on the screen (not too much)
2. Randomly I get a black screen after logging in with only the cursor showing. The only thing I can do then is to wait and sometimes the screen comes back, or to use ctrl+alt+del.
3. When the screen does work, it is very pixelated with a lot of pink pixels as well as pixelated text.
Things I've tried:
1. System restore
2. Reinstalling/resetting the os and wiping out everything including all partitions
3. Installing all the Intel driver versions and ones from my laptops manufacturer website
4. I've tried chkdsk and sfc /scannow commands
5. Using DDU to clean out drivers before installing new drivers. Also used Easy Driver to find the best drivers to update with
6. Stopping windows from auto updating when installing drivers I want to test.
7. Cleaned out the laptop hardware and fans
8. Tried a second monitor using HDMI (problem persists on second monitor)
System information:
1. Lenovo Edge 15 80k9
2. Windows 10 home edition 64 bit
3. Intel Hd graphics 5500
I'm at my wits end here and really need it to work asap. Hope someone can help fix this issue. Any other information needed I can supply. Thanks in advance!
