Have a HP notebook that was dropped. Screen destroyed, but otherwise system works fine. Got screen replaced. Now the system will boot to a BLACK SCREEN with a MOUSE CURSOR only. SAFE BOOT same. SAFE BOOT with COMMAND LINE same. Tried booting to VGA resolution - same results. So I can't get to a UI to do anything. Tried Vista recovery disk, but there doesn't seem to be a way to reset the video driver. Have confirmed by replacing the system disk that the screen is fine (installed Windows 7 RC without a hitch on another disk as boot device. Would really like to retain/recover the original boot drive, but I can't boot from it until I can get the video driver to get stupid enough to handle the replacement screen (which appears to be same resolution as the original judging from the Windows 7 test build). Anyone know of a way to reset to the DEFAULT (generic) video driver on a system when you can't get to the UI for it?
So if you really strong men
I've never tried this method on graphics card only on simpler devices like mouse or keyboard but netherless you try it
First of you meet how to edit registry remotly and what kind of ControlSetXXX key related to CurrentcontrolSet key - read all from post 17 this thread:
http://www.vistax64.com/general-discussion/191151-cant-delete-registry-key-2.html
Now when you well -knowed with remotly registry you can read below:
1.Load hive SYSTEM to regedit as REM_SYSTEM
open key HKLM\REM_SYSTEM\ControlSet00X\Control\Class\{4d36E968-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
and check in this key exist phrases UpperFilter,LowerFilter in this key -if yes -remove them
2.Most important open key HKLM\REM_SYSTEM\ControlSet00X\Enum\PCI
and find in this key the word "display".every subkey of this key which included the word "display" is responsible for graphics card.You will find info about *.inf file - this file is located in C:\Windows\inf and included information about modules from graphics card - when you read what you know remove this *.inf file and subkey which include the word "display" (attached image of course from my system level)
in this example to remove is key
HKLM\....\Enum\PCI\VEN10DE&DEV_.....
but remember this example -another hardware configuration -another VEN....
If you decide to this method I wish you good luck because you will really need it :D
EDIT
Have you tried "Last know good configuration" option (link below)? -I suggest to try it before you decide to this above hardcore
