It should be the same driver as Windows 8.1.

For example, Dell has a driver here, which they list for WS2012R2,
and yet it has desktop Windows sections. "6.3" means Windows 8.1
....
The operating system is permitted to directly write to the framebuffer
provided by GOP during runtime mode. However, the ability to change
video modes is lost after transitioning to runtime services mode until
the OS graphics driver is loaded."


I will archive your replies and try again later. Maybe by then Intel HD
500 would have proper if not official drivers for Win Server 2012 R2.

I tried the .INF hack, didn't work. I really suspected the disappearance
of the "Microsoft Basic Display Adapter" in Device Manager affected the
installation process.

I had another idea:

1. Insert a PCIe display card to Asrock J3345
2. Install the driver of the PCIe display card
3. Install the driver of Intel HD 500 driver
4. Remove the PCIe display card
5. Reboot and see whether Intel HD 500 would show up in Device Manager

Not in the mood to attempt this procedure now that I had Win 10
installed and working ...
