My system was stable since October last year. Yesterday, for some weird reason, I decided to update the driver while generally updating Windows. It's just what I usually do with all hardware and machines every couple of months.
But I forgot that Intel drivers are apparently ridiculously unstable (nothing has crashed my machines more regularly). My machine has crashed 3 times since that update yesterday.
Unfortunately, I don't know which driver version I was running before - I don't have the old driver install file and no System Restore Point.
Does Windows maybe log driver versions somewhere?
If not - is there a specific driver version that's supposed to be particularly stable?

Windows stores copies of old drivers at
c:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\igdlh64.inf_amd64_*\
These drivers are listed including date stamp if you select update driver in device manager.
Otherwise goto https://downloadcenter.intel.com/product/88351/Intel-HD-Graphics-510 Downloads for Intel® HD Graphics 510
Hit show more and check the date stamps there.

Huh... that's odd... in that list, I only have:
20.19.15.4474
20.19.15.4501
21.20.16.4860
But Windows Update says it installed this one two days ago:
21.20.16.4565
Anyway... I'll try out the two 20.19.15.XXXX versions and hope that one of the two is the one that was stable.
Thank you very much already!
