Hello, my problem is:
I want to install windows 8.1. The installation is successful, and the windows using the "Microsoft Basic Display Adapter" driver to my GTX 1070.
Every time when I want to install the offical nvidia geforce driver (the version is not matters, tried a lot of them) the OS stuck in an infinite "freeze loop". If I move my mouse cursor sometimes shows, but 1-2 sec and gone. Mostly black screen. If I turn on the caps lock (the key led is on) same 1-2 sec and turning itself off. I have tried install the nvidia driver in pure windows install and tried install all the windows update and tried after that. None of those worked
I dumped my BIOS looking some hidden setting maybe I can use. I found some, but I don know if I allow them helps me or not.
Someone has any idea what is going on? I know Dell officially only supports windows 10 and yes w10 is working fine, but I really want to use w8.1 if that possible somehow...
My main OS is linux and everything is working fine on linux too.
Maybe I have some BIOS restriction? Any idea?
