Hi i just bought this new laptop about two weeks ago and updated it to windows 10. I tried to install and play a game i had on my old computer but it didn't work. After som googling I found out that others had the same problem playing on windows 10 and had dowgraded their driver version.

I have driver version 10.18.15.4256, the graphic driver is intel HD graphics 5500 and processor is intel core i5 5200U.

I tried to download and install older versions for intel hd graphics 5500 but when I try it says my computer doesn't have the minimun requirements.

So, can I have a link to older driver versions that work on my computer and a guide on how to install it?

Did you mange to go through the entire installation? Usually, the manual installation method will bypass any installation restriction.
