Macbook Air early 2014, windows, meet black screen with latest Intel graphics driver (hd5000)

Macbook Air early 2014,

Installed windows fully follow the Bootcamp guide.

Neither Windows 8 nor Windows 7 can run correctly, same Symptoms, screen goes black before the login.

Later figure out it's cause by Intel HD Graphic 5000 driver.

If not to install the driver, everything goes well.

HOWEVER! Windows Update will push the driver and install automatically! of course, the screen goes black after the update.

Anyone have the same problem? the latest driver not working on macbook air ?

Intel HD Graphics Driver info:

Version: 15.36.21.64.4222 (Latest)

Do you want to try the .5621 driver for HD4K?

Did you attempt to install any other version of the driver on the current Windows installation at any point in time?

I didn't install any driver beside the BCA drivers.

(I got only one flash disk on my hand which is create by BCA, and the laptop is disconnect from internet.)

I didn't try the driver from .5621, but i look into the readme file of .5621, it's the same driver as .5640, both are "15.33.8.64.3345".

Do you suggest I still install the .5621 driver?
