If there is an onboard video, disable it via jumper and/or BIOS. Clear CMOS memory first and then disable OB Video, if any. If you had the Windows screen up before you loaded drivers it seems to me that there's a conflict w/the drivers.
It might be best to reformat HD and install OS again and load only the drivers it prompts you forfor the time being.

| Thanks Happy Hillbilly.The solution ended up being, installing the 4in1 drivers for Via chipset.After installation everything went good. |
