Color Saturation Keeps resetting

[GSlaz]

I have Dell XPS 9570

Intel UHD 630

After installing Bios 1.6.0, in the Intel Graphics Control Panel, instead of "Color Accuracy - enable/disable" I now have "Hue and Saturation" options

The default saturation = 0, is way too much, reds are so strong they hurt my eyes.

I change it to -15, which looks more reasonable, however, -every time- after restart, or using "Windows Night Light" the saturation keeps resetting to 0. So I have to set it again manually, this is extremely annoying.

Trying to install latest Intel Drivers, from here:

https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000005629.html it suggested to install "Intel® Driver & Support Assistant (Intel® DSA)"

which I did.

After installing, the website displayed there's 1 update available to Intel® UHD Graphics 630

Latest version: x.x.x.6444 Installed Version: x.x.x.6287

(25.20.100.6444) and (25.20.100.6287) 

After clicking download/install, I got error message box:

---------------------------

Error

---------------------------

The driver being installed is not validated for this computer. Please obtain the appropriate driver from the computer manufacturer.

Setup will exit.

Would you like more information?

Click Yes to be directed to the Intel support website.

I have Dell XPS 9570

Intel Core i7-8750H

Intel® UHD Graphics 630

When I open Dell Support Assist application, it shows there are -no- driver updates avaialable.

Dell is refusing to help unless I give them remote access to my laptop, which I can't do at the moment.

Hello GSlaz, Thank you for your response. If you are still having issues we recommend the following however, we cannot confirm it will work with your system since we do not support Dell computers. Update to the latest BIOS version. -You currently have version 1.6.0 , 02-11-2018 installed and Dell is showing a new version 1.8.1 2/27/2019 available. You need to contact Dell to confirm if this is recommended to to provide any instructions since there is some risk in updating the BIOS. -Windows Updates should be up to date for the current version installed (Build 17134, 1803, Redstone 4). -Uninstall both the Intel and Nvidia graphics drivers. (Instructions shared on posts above) Install the Intel UHD Graphics 630 P630 Driver (link below): https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/27199/Intel-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-15-47-?product=126790 Install the nVIDIA Graphics Driver (link below): https://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/product-support/product/xps-15-9570-laptop/drivers -Also please check with the monitor manufacturer for any firmware or driver updates. Support for XPS 15 9570 > Drivers & downloads https://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/product-support/servicetag/2yqlpq2/drivers I hope the above recommendation helps.

Hello Alex M, Thank you for contacting our Intel (r) Support. In this case the driver that you need to install depends on the system that you own and the graphic controller in it. We have posted different driver versions on this forum for different purposes, are you looking for an particular/specific driver? Please let me know so I can look for the exact version that you are searching for. Regards, Diego Sanchez Campos. Intel (R)Customer Support Technician Under Contract to Intel (R) Corporation

Why would I do that?? I swear, you post some of the most useless answers. What does contacting my laptop's manufacturer have to do with the last few comments? Nothing.

I just wanted to get a link for the driver version mentioned above by Glasz. Since it's Intel's driver you should be able to provide a source to download it.

Yes, I was asking about a link to this driver:

23.20.16.4973

(As GSlaz posted about.)

[Diego_S_Intel]

Hello Alex Thank you for your response In this case this version of drivers belong to Dell* as part of their OEM driver package. Here is the direct download: https://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/04/drivers/driversdetails?driverid=j5pt2 Computer manufacturers might have changed the features, incorporated customizations, or made other changes to the graphics driver software or software packaging. To avoid potential installation incompatibilities with hybrids systems such as the one that you own, we recommend that you check first with your computer manufacturer in order to use / troubleshoot the driver software provided by them.

I left this thread waiting to try a new driver.

Today I've installed the latest available driver from Intel website

Driver Date : 11-Apr-19

Driver Version : 26.20.100.6709

When I right click on desktop, I have NO Intel graphics controls settings.

When I install and try to run Intel Graphics Control Panel from Windows Store I get the same old error:

"Intel Graphics Driver is not available. Check the driver status and then launch the application."

Excuse me but nothing is working, same now and same before.

Is anyone at Intel trying to fix the problem or is it going to get ignored forever?

The only thing that's working is the new MS Store app "Intel Graphics Command Center" (which looks cool BTW), BUT it doesn't have any option to change Color Saturation, it has only Brightness and Contrast in the "Display Tab \ Color" section.

So.. months after fighting with this problem, still everything broken, even more because now I can't change saturation anymore.

Hello GSlaz, Thank you for your response. If you are still having issues we recommend the following however, we cannot confirm it will work with your system since we do not support Dell computers as (shared before) -Windows Updates should be up to date for the current version installed (Build 17134, 1803, Redstone 4) in order to uodate to the latest drivers (OEM or Intel) Your computer is running under hybrid graphics, mainly controlled by the Nvidia Graphic portion, which somehow is not allowing you to interact with your control panel and options unless you rollback the driver as you reported. Since all Computer manufacturer's drivers are customized and our generic drivers are only going to work for general purposes, contacting the manufacturer again and asking for a higher level of support or a manger is the best step to take. I hope this helps. Diego S. Intel (R) Customer Support Technician Under Contract to Intel (R) Corporation
