Cannot Update my Intel HD 4000 Graphics Driver (Need help ASAP)

[TMuha]

Hey, I'm getting an error when i run the .exe file for the driver update for my Intel HD graphics card.

My computer specs are:

Windows 8.1

64 Bit Operating system

6.00 GB of Ram

Intel i5-3317U CPU with 1.70 ghz speed

The error says i do not have the specs to install the driver. If someone can, i would love the help. Thanks a lot. xD

Hello TanvirM, thanks for joining the Intel Community.

• Could you please attach the DX Diag report from your system? (Start -> Run -> dxdiag -> Save All Information).
• May I also have the model number of your laptop?

Bear in mind that we recommend customers to download and install the drivers provided by the system manufacture, since our drivers are generic drivers and sometimes these cannot be installed on other systems or the installation of them could overwrite their customizations and possibly change the functionality of the graphics.

Regards,

TanvirM, I would strongly recommend you use the ASUS drivers rather than the Intel generic drivers.

However, if you do want to overwrite the ASUS drivers with the Generic Intel drivers, follow these steps exactly. Note, you will loose any customization ASUS makes in the drivers specifically for your system and the system may not function as ASUS intended.

Download the zip version of the generic Intel HD Graphics driver here: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/24593/Intel-HD-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-7-8-8-1-64-bit Intel® Download Center
