Graphics Issue on HP Envy HD 4600

[MR8]

I recently purchased a hp laptop HP ENVY 15t Windows 8.1, 8GB RAM with 4th generation Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4710HQ Quad Core Processor + Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600.

And tried to play game Far Cry 1 which require minimum

- Pentium 4

- CPU Speed: 2GHz

- RAM: 512MB

- Video Card: DirectX 9.0 compliant video card with 64MB RAM

I installed and found the Graphics is not upto the mark as the indoor is seen clearly but the outdoor I get blind / blank, for eg I could not see the blue water in ocean instead I get plain white in its place..

Please help what the best I need to do.

Hi Mahes

What version of the Intel HD graphics driver is installed on your system?

Also, Do you have the http://www.ubi.com/US/downloads/Info.aspx?dlId=691 latest game patches installed for Far Cry?

The latest Intel HD Graphics drivers are available here:

32-bit: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=24349 http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=24349

Hi Robert,

Thanks for your swift reply...

My PC is 64bit.

I tried to update the Intel Graphics Driver from the above link but it doesn't support my PC. Then I browse Intel website and found the latest version for my PC is

Driver Version: 15.36.3.64.3907 and tried to install the same.

But even after installation my driver version remains as 10.18.10.3907

I guess whether my hardware doesn't support latest version, is that right or provide me the right solution to install latest version...

did you use the "have disk" installation instructions?
