I get no display after installing the CORRECT driver for my cpu using intels auto detect and install tool. I still get display to bios and safe mode, but when i go normal mode, OS boots, but my monitor switches to "No Display Digital" When i uninstall the drive my computer displays normal mode. Help would be appreciated. Using a intel pentium g3258 and no graphics card yet, and integrated graphics worked before, but I reinstalled windows and now nothing. Running windows 7 x86 (32 bit).

You'll see 2x processors, it'll show both cores, so thats normal. What it sounds like to me is a hdmi driver issue in the gpu. Under bios and safe mode, most drivers are not enabled, especially the higher active ones like hdmi. What you'll get is the basic VGA drivers shunted over all outputs, be it DP, hdmi or dvi. In normal mode, the full drivers are loaded, so if your output is set as hdmi by connection, and the gpu is set to dvi by software, you'll get nada. Check all your settings, both in gpu software, device manager, and bios.
Just for kicks, you don't suppose it's using dual-monitor mode after the drivers are installed, and your display is the 'secondary', which means by default it would be disabled /black? Try booting to safe mode, and remove any and all drivers for both the display card, and monitor hmm.. Try this from safe mode:

open command prompt, as admin and type:

set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1
start devmgmt.msc

once device manager opens, at top click 'show hidden devices' and remove anything that is 'ghosted/faded out' , you may have like 15 monitors listed there. Just something to try that could cause that type of issue.
 


No avail to this, only 1 in display aswell as computer, but there are 2 of the same proccessors in the proccessor section.

I have no idea where I could see the hmdi and dvi and such, I get confused by those stuff. Thanks for the help, and further help would be much appreciated. I also am not using a gpu, just the integrated intel hd graphics of cpu. And this setup has worked before, but it just fails to work after reinstalling windows.
 


I looked at my monitor itself in windows, and it doesnt even name it, just calls it Default Monitor, is that a problem?
 
No, default monitor isn't bad. I agree with above, probably some issue with outputs and drivers. Did you try downloading the drivers and installing them manually, instead of the auto updater? Or, perhaps a slightly different version of the driver? Also make sure your chipset drivers are installed. Also try setting a resolution under safe mode, other than the default, reboot and see if it displays in normal mode.
 


I have done it manually and different versions. I have not installed anything to do with chipset drivers though...
 


I updated stuffs in bios including its version aswell as its chipset nothing still ;(
I might also add that it worked fine on diffent windows install till suddenly i was playing minecraft and the textures were funking up and stuff and then it stopped and when i launched it then this now i did lots of stuff to no avail
 


Ended up doing alot of stuff at the same time and it worked ~ Switched the sides that my connection cable to pc and monitor was. Installed service pack 1 for windows. And also installed direct x. Don't know which one fixed, all i know is that im happy and it took me like... 2 days of constant testing and trying to fix, and now it is.
