And I have uninstalled and reinstall the display driver, running as admin, but despite repeated attempted, I could not do so in compatibility for W/7 or 8. It would halt at about 75%. It did install without compatibility.
I guess what you are saying here is that you still have the error 137 showing up in your event log?
Your first post indicates to me you have tried hard to find a fix for this error, and have gone to non MS support sites in hope of an answer.
This Thread is now 10 months old. If one follows other MS Community Forum threads on this same error event, one will find multiple MS-OS users have yet to find a solution or get an answer to the Question at hand from MS Forum staff. Yet the issue returns in many threads from many users seeking an answer to a Question about W8 that goes un-answered by MS staff. One would think that someone on the MS Forum staff could solve the problem, or just say it is a mystery to everyone and no-one knows the answer to the Question. Frustrating.
IF you ever do find "the answer", I hope you will post back here so that others can read your Good News.

I appreciated your comment: "If you Google "The system firmware has changed the processor's memory type range registers' you find this is a common issue, but I have yet to find a fix I can confirm. "
