I have an integrated chip (Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family) and yet when i download this https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/27267/Graphics-Intel-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-15-40-?product=80939 Download Intel® Graphics Driver for Windows* [15.40] driver it says error your system does not meet the minimum requirements, as far as i can tell its the right one, could someone just confirm that? or if it isnt give me the right link?

Get your drivers here: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/product/81507/Graphics-Drivers-for-Mobile-Intel-4-Series-Express-Chipset-Family Downloads for Graphics Drivers for Mobile Intel® 4 Series Express Chipset Family

Check out the difference between your GPU ("older graphics product") and "4th generation Intel core" here:

As you can see under the aforementioned link, Intel does not provide a Windows 10 driver for your legacy GPU

However there is driver 8.15.10.2702 at https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=8.15.10.2702 Microsoft Update Catalog

Normally it should be installed by Windows 10 automatically.

I downloaded a random CAB to double-check. The INF file is there as expected.

Probably you stranded in a wrong folder?

Very sorry for the late reply got caught up in irl stuff, i dont even know what "stranded in the wrong folder" means also when i extract the .cab file it just gives me a .zip file and when i look in there theres another .cab

Did you use Windows explorer for extraction?

Try 7Z instead: http://www.7-zip.org/ http://www.7-zip.org/

It installs a right-click handler, where you can select Extract to "..."
