[SOLVED] BSOD when I install nVidia driver (acpi.sys) - Windows 8 x64

jskafa · Jan 14, 2015

Hello,

I just bought a MSI GS60 without OS. So I installed Windows 8 x64 on my SSD and I installed each driver from the MSI CD, when I installed the nVidia driver.... BSOD! :frown6:
I tried to uninstall it and get the last one from the official MSI download page but still the same...

This is my config:

Code:

GS60 2PC-247XFR
nVidia GTX 860M
Intel® Core™ i7-4710HQ (2,5 GHz)

I run the SysnativeBSODCollectionApp.exe but I am waiting, this is the message: Waiting for SystemInfo

On my last BSOD, I see this error: POWER STATE FAILURE, so I run the bluescreenviewer and see that only one driver is causing this: acpi.sys

I will join the rapport when finished.

Tahnk you

Hi -

Please run - https://www.sysnative.com/forums/bs...ons-windows-10-8-1-8-7-and-windows-vista.html

Also, be sure to Check Windows Updates for an updated NVIDIA driver. When I originally upgrade from Windows 7 (full retail) to Windows 8), I blue-screened to death with 0x139 bugchecks. I tried several different drivers from NVIDIA as well as the old Windows 7 era driver available from HP (specific to my laptop), but no-go.

Then a few days later to my surprise, there was a NVIDIA driver update waiting to be installed from Windows Updates. That did the trick!

Yesterday, I updated on W8.1 and MAGIIC, no blue screen anymore, I updated the driver and it's working perfectly! I'll let you know if something change
