Command And Conquer 3 Tib wars and Kanes Wrath wont work on Intel graphics 5500

[ddevo1]

whenever i try to play either of these two games, they crash and i an error message pops up saying "exception in exception handler"now, i've done the whole ask windows for support and they said it's a graphical issue not the OS's issue so they told me to go ask my graphics card manufacturer. I also asked around on Steam and people there said to download the Intel Beta graphics driver, which i've also tried and my computer tells me that my graphics card is up to date and no update is needed...so now im right stuck, any help getting these games to work would be awesome.

Hello Devtron:

In order to better assist you, we just need to verify a few details: What is the model of the processor? What is the model of the motherboard? If this is a laptop, what is the model of the laptop? Which Windows version are you using? Since the PC is works with Intel graphics 5500, on the following link you will find the latest version of the graphics driver for that controller, not sure if you tried this driver already, please un-install the current graphics driver from device manager, and install the following: Driver 4501: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/26228/Intel-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-10-and-Windows-7-8-1-15-40-?product=86210 https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/26228/Intel-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-10-and-Windows-7-8-1-15-40-?product=86210 If the problem remains after installing the driver above, then you can try this Beta driver, it is 4539: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/26347/Intel-Beta-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-10-and-Windows-7-8-1-15-40-?product=86210 https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/26347/Intel-Beta-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-10-and-Windows-7-8-1-15-40-?product=86210 Any questions, please let me know.

having trouble finding info about the motherboard, in the cmd promt menu i type in "wmic baseboard get product,Manufacturer,version,serialnumber" and it just displays "Board vender name 1 Board product name 1 Board serial number" so i might be doing something wrong there.

the info i provided above, is that enough? im not the most tech savvy so i hope that's what you needed.

when it comes to deleting my driver and installing the ones you provided above, out of the two i seem to have on my laptop, which one do i delete??

Hello Devtron:

Thank you very much for that information. In regard to your question, the one that you need to delete is the one that says Intel® Graphics 5500, by right clicking on it and select un-installed. Also, since the laptop is using switchable graphics, that means it has the Intel graphics and AMD graphics, please follow the instructions on the file attached to this thread, and let us know the results. Any questions, please let me know. Alberto

hey alberto

i've successfully reinstalled my AMD drivers even though i have no idea how they got deleted when all i did was delete the Intel 5500 graphics driver.

also the beta driver you keep linking me is either non existent or in a different place,below is a capture of what I get when clicking the link.

Hello Devtron:

Let me apologize for any inconvenience. After you re-install the AMD driver, is the problem still present or the games are working fine now? Here is the link again for the Beta driver 4539, there are some updates being done in our web site, so, if this link does not work for you, please let me know. Please install the driver manually: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/26347/Intel-Beta-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-10-and-Windows-7-8-1-15-40-?product=86210 https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/26347/Intel-Beta-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-10-and-Windows-7-8-1-15-40-?product=86210 Any questions, please let me know.

Hello Devtron:

Thank you very much for providing that information. Now we will try to replicate the issue and also we will start an investigation in order to try to find a possible solution for this problem. As soon as I get any updates or results, I will post all the details on this thread. Any questions, please let me know. Alberto

Hello Devtron:

According to the graphics report, the driver installed is the 4474, so, please un-install that driver manually and re-install the 4539 driver again, then get the graphics report when the driver gets installed. Also, attached to this post you will find some instructions that will help us narrow the problem, we had reports where this problem gets fixed installing the 4539 beta driver. Any questions, please let me know. Alberto

Hello Devtron:

I just wanted to check if you saw the information posted previously in regard to the installation of driver 4539, once you install that driver please provide the graphics report so we can start the investigation on this matter? Any questions, please let me know. Alberto
