My Dell XPS M1330′s screen go blank after installing VGA driver.

Dell XPS M1330

The details:-
Machine: Notebook
Brand/Model: Dell XPS M1330
O/S: MS. Windows Vista Business

My user complain that he faced display problem on his notebook. (The screen is blank.)
He requested to reformat it.

After reformatting the notebook the screen is still blank.

Then, I reported to Dell then the problem was solved by following their instructions.

Here I shared my experience with you all but I am not sure whether this solution work to you or not.

This was caused by the sequence of drivers installation.

IMPORTANT: To avoid this happen, you must install the driver by follow below sequence.

1. Install “Notebook System Software” (Under System Utilities).

2. Install “Intel – Mobile Chipset” (Under Chipset).

3. Then,you can install any others drivers without follow the sequence.

After couple minutes searching on Google, I found the answer already.

This is due to “OS Install mode” is enabled.

The solution is
