I think a lot of things depend on how you install the drivers. I think the proper way is : Boot into regular mode, run the installer. Go into device manager and manually install all the drivers. Set up the boot entry and reboot. If you just run the installer, and for some reason the drivers don't get installed, and you boot into the gplv mode and then manually install the drivers, it will most likely hose your system. NEVER install the hard disk drivers in GPLV mode. (unless it's for a secondary disk, or installing the virtual framebuffer).
