Elberoth Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Anyone successfully installed a graphics driver on Caps V3 (Intel DN2800MT) motherboard ? There are no Windows 8 graphic drivers for those boards available AFAIK. I tried installing the supplied Win 7/32 driver - it installed just normal, but then I noticed that it makes the system crash when choosing some default desktop apps (like weather for example). JRiver or Youtube (even at 1080p) works just fine with that driver. I tried reinstalling the system twice (to find out what driver causes the system to crash). On a generic Win 8 graphics driver (no DN2800MT graphics driver installed) eveything works just fine.

Audio_ELF Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Are you using WIndows 8 32bit or 64bit? Eloise Eloise --- ...in my opinion / experience... While I agree "Everything may matter" working out what actually affects the sound is a trickier thing. And I agree "Trust your ears" but equally don't allow them to fool you - trust them with a bit of skepticism. keep your mind open... But mind your brain doesn't fall out. Link to comment

Ralf Hutter Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 There are no Win 8 32 or 64 GPU drivers for this board, nor are there any 64-bit Win 7 drivers for it. The GPU on this board is not an Intel GPU, it's licensed from another company (whose name I can't remember right now). Intel have already stated that there will never be a Win 7 64 driver for this board, and hearing that, I wouldn't be too surprised if there's never any Win 8 drivers either. Search google for "drivers for Intel GMA 3650" and read up on this issue. Link to comment
Elberoth Posted January 23, 2013 Author Share Posted January 23, 2013 I not looking for 64-bit driver, be it Win 7/64 of Win 8/64, as I use Win 8/32-bit. I'm asking for the graphics driver for this board, that would work with Win 8/32.

I installed the win7 32 bit driver without problems, just run the install program as administrator and with win 7 compatibility Link to comment
Elberoth Posted January 23, 2013 Author Share Posted January 23, 2013 Did you try using the apps from the desktop ? My system only crashes when I try to use those. I have to admit though, that I installed the driver without choosing any Win 7 compatibility mode. How do you run that mode anyway ?

Right-click on the exe file, choose properties. there you can select which compatibility mode you wish. Also there you can choose to run the exe file as administrator. Link to comment
