Stop display driver being loaded in windows 8
I have a laptop that the display card went wrong. I am waiting for the replacement. In the mean time, I need to disable and uninstall the display driver from AMD, because it crashes the laptop and give me a blue screen. What I notice is that I can still work on Safe mode without causing blue screen, I try to disable the driver and even uninstall it in Device Manager. It seems to automatically reinstall. Is there a way to temporary configure to not use the AMD driver but the windows native driver.

Can you please just disable the display adaptop in next reboot.
You need to find the replacement soon.

Since disabling the faulty display adapter did not allow a different display, disabling it again will just result in the same issue. The computer is broken at this point.

thinkpads_user,
You are right. Nothing I can do except waiting for the replacement. Try all and nothing works well

I don't think my answers worked anyway, could you please take out the points off me so it doesn't confuse the future readers
Out of interest: so you changed to the generic driver as I proposed and it did not work? What happened?
@tommym121 - Thank you for the update and I was happy to help.
