windows broken after installing asus xonar dgx driver

Brick · Jan 30, 2014

I recently bought a new sound card, the asus xonar dgx. I went to their website and downloaded/installed the latest windows 8.1 64bit driver. After restarting the computer everything is weird. My desktop has no icons and I can't open the start screen. I've performed a sfc /scannow check and it came up with errors. Hoping to get some help soon as my pc is pretty much unusable for daily life now. I am running windows 8.1 pro 64 bit

edit, i can make my desktop show icons by right clicking and refreshing it, but they have a black box on all of them where that shortcut logo at the bottom left should be

I have also just run a CHKDSK and it is fine

Hi,

I will get back to you properly at the weekend - I don't have long right now.

Since you're running Windows 8, let's see what DISM can do for us automatically.

DISM

Press the Windows Key on your keyboard and X to open up the Power User Tasks Menu
Click (or tap) Command Prompt (admin)
When command prompt opens, copy and paste the following commands into it, press enter after each

DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

Wait for this to finish before you continue (approximately 15 minutes)

copy %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log %userprofile%\Desktop\cbs.txt
This will create a file, cbs.txt on your Desktop. Please attach this to your next post.

When i press windows key and X nothing comes up, just a normal windows sound

EDIT: used task manager to open cmd as admin

Tekno Venus · Jan 30, 2014

There should be a small menu appear in the bottom left of the screen, above the start button.

If not, right click the Start Button and it will appear.

Brick · Jan 30, 2014

it does not appear, i can't left or right click it.

Ok, it's finish. i had to zip it because it exceeded forum limits

Tekno Venus · Jan 30, 2014

Hi,

Just skimmed over the log. DISM fixed almost everything, there is one minor corruption left:
