    Okay so this is not an Intel issue. We all need to keep looking.

    Current driver is 387.92 or 23.21.13.8792 if you prefer, may be worth trying.

    I have downloaded the drivers. Will see tommorow if it works. I should problably also say that i have two additional monitors available in device manager, one is standard pnp-monitor and the other one is standard non-pnp monitor. I don't know what purpose they do.

    I have an intel gfx driver that keeps installing itself for some reason. I was using the onboard gfx card with hdmi when my gtx 650 wasn't working.

    You could try this to stop hardware updates.

    I found this article and this is what I'm using in 1703. It must be working as my Wi-Fi card requires an ancient driver and I know there are current updates, I get the most recent one every major update, like V1703.

    https://www.howtogeek.com/302595/how...dware-drivers/

    In the article quite a ways down there is a link labelled “Disable Automatic Driver Updates Hacks”
    This downloads a zip file with two registry hacks. Read the paragraph above the link. I used the hack on my V1703 (Creators). Likely have to run Hack after each major update, Anniversary, Creator, Fall Creator Update(FCU).

    If link doesn't work for you copy it. I checked it works for me.

    Once copied paste into address bar. It takes you to article.

    If the device is on your system Windows will install a driver. The article is how to stop updating.

    If you are using external graphics card I believe you can enter BIOS and disable onboard, but only if you have expansion card.

    I have installed both the registry tweaks, as well as uninstalling the intel drivers plus the device from device manager. Will see if I can disable it in bios as well. Update: So I cant get access to bios, i have tried f1, f2, f8 and f12. It just gives me a black screen with the power button on my monitor blinking.

    Try Del. As soon as you power on, del, del, del. I would retry F2 as well.

    If machine can handle you can also enter through advance startup Option. Hold shift and click restart.

    I have tried those buttons as well, it just sends me to a black screen with a blinking power button. I also couldn't find any choices in advanced options that sends me to bios. Should also mention that the registry tweaks didn't work. Plus the intel gfx card drivers keeps reinstalling itself, it seems like i can't get rid of it for some reason. Any more ideas or is it time to get some new hardware?
