How can I get around "the driver being installed is not validated for this computer"?

Since, my computer presents me with "The driver being installed is not validated for this computer", and Lenovo hasnt updated their drivers since 2017 and send me back to intel, and intel no longer lets me download a zip file of the driver, im basically screwed and can't update my drivers. Is that a reasonable assumption?

Tell us about the computer (model, processor) and what graphics, and what operating system.

its better , download the drivers from Lenovo support site of your model , and install it

But if you want to try to install the generic driver made by intel , then the latest driver from intel and then

 

extract the downloaded .exe file using 7-zip software , and then go to device manager

 

follow the instructions on this intel website

Raju, do not step on threads that are being addressed by someone else.

 

And, your "answer" is not appropriate until we learn what the customer has.
