Hey, I ran the installer for the Chrome EC driver and the screen went black. Had to reinstall. I’m using a Lenovo 300e Chromebook 2nd Gen (AMD-A4). Can anyone help me, or does it not matter too much if I don’t install EC?

What do I miss if I don’t install EC?

OK. After further testing, Chrome EC is not the problem. I installed no drivers, after reinstalling windows (other then the eMMC driver). The screen flickers, then goes black. After restarting, windows loads, but straight to black screen.

Hi i also had this problem when i tried putting windows my Acer spin 311. I found out the problem is when windows automatically installs the gpu driver. so i searched how to disable automatic installations of drivers. this is what worked for me. i recommend at the wifi screen to Shift f10 and then type the command OOBE\BYPASSNRO this will reboot the computer and let you setup without wifi. when i reached the desktop i pressed Win + R to run and put in sysdm.cpl next go to hardware and then device installations. select no and then reboot your laptop. And then i was able to get wifi on and download the drivers. hope this helps!
