Product: HP Envy
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-Bit)
Got alert for 3 updates from Intel today and 2 went fine. The 3rd wouldnt install. Spoke to HP but they are useless and just want you to pay for additonal support.
Just look at the pictures. Prettu much says it all, esoecually last one where I UPDATED driver thu Device Manager and it says I have LATEST driver.
NOW WHAT???

To install the DCH drivers, my understanding is that you need to manually uninstall the older drivers first.
For more information, start here: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000031572/programs/intel-corporation.html.

Hi, thanks for the idea, BUT the 1 thing I have learned about these updates and especially HP where you CAN'T get software help is NOT to FORCE anything.
As I said above I uninstalled my current driver and then upon Restart it should have looked and found the most current version - which it did that was 6444 and not this new DCH(?) one.
there is a bug here and I do NOT want to be the Guinea pig

6444 *is* the DCH driver.
Oh, and if you knew HP was so bad for support (which I could have told you many years ago), why would you buy their horrible crap anyway?

Thanks BUT according to Intel the NEWEST DCH driver is 6471 and that WONT install.
Intel did send more ways to FORCE install it... see reply by LeoC_Intel…. BUT I wont do that right now.
This entire thing is VERY poorly coordinated between Intel and computer makers like HP

RE: "I do NOT want to be the Guinea pig"
Good God man, every Windows (or Linux, for that matter) user is a Guinea Pig. Over time, Microsoft has been constantly reducing the amount of testing that they do and letting the end-users find the bugs for them. They argue that it is the "early adopters" that are finding the bugs, but the fact is, many (many!) make it through to the (normal) end-user. Look at the 1809 launch (a.k.a. disaster) as an example. At the same time, Microsoft has chosen to launch on schedule despite there being a great many (in one case, I heard, 60,000) sightings in their database (a sighting is an as yet to be investigated anomaly).
I should have been more explicit and said that 6444 was the first DCH driver release.
While I didn't do so within this conversation, my instructions (cut-and-pasted from another conversation) for this situation were as follows:
- Download the UWD/DCH graphics driver that you want to install.
- Disconnect system from internet. Unplug Ethernet cable and/or disable wireless.
- From the Apps and Features Settings scene, uninstall the old graphics driver.
- Reboot.
- Install the UWD/DCH graphics driver.
- Reconnect to internet.

"Good God man, every Windows (or Linux, for that matter) user is a Guinea Pig."
yeah well after the 1809 thing which STILL has issues even at this date: ie NO auto Update (which actually has turned out to be a good thing) I've had it with being a 1st responder.
Thanks for that info. I saw it somewhere else BUT quote about NO going back to the future has convinced me that I will wait this upgrade out. When HP has it on their update list then I will think about it.
Thanks for the honesty.
Keep up the good work.
