your defconfig is wrong for libgfxinit + vbt + edk2. Here's what I would recommend: CONFIG_VENDOR_HP=y CONFIG_CBFS_SIZE=0x400000 CONFIG_INTEL_GMA_VBT_FILE="/home/serveradmin/coreboot-blobs/coreboot/vbt.bin" CONFIG_IFD_BIN_PATH="/home/serveradmin/coreboot-blobs/coreboot/descriptor.bin" CONFIG_ME_BIN_PATH="/home/serveradmin/coreboot-blobs/coreboot/me.bin" CONFIG_GBE_BIN_PATH="/home/serveradmin/coreboot-blobs/coreboot/gbe.bin" CONFIG_BOARD_HP_8470P=y CONFIG_HAVE_IFD_BIN=y CONFIG_EDK2_BOOTSPLASH_FILE="/home/serveradmin/coreboot-blobs/coreboot/logo.png" CONFIG_VALIDATE_INTEL_DESCRIPTOR=y CONFIG_KBC1126_FIRMWARE=y CONFIG_KBC1126_FW1="/home/serveradmin/coreboot-blobs/coreboot/ec_hp_kbc1126_fw1.bin" CONFIG_KBC1126_FW2="/home/serveradmin/coreboot-blobs/coreboot/ec_hp_kbc1126_fw2.bin" CONFIG_HAVE_ME_BIN=y CONFIG_HAVE_GBE_BIN=y CONFIG_INTEL_GMA_ADD_VBT=y CONFIG_PAYLOAD_EDK2=y Save that as your defconfig, then: cp defconfig .config make olddefconfig rf -rf ./build make that should fix the Windows display issue.
