Intel 910/ 915 Video

Our group has created possibly the first WDDM Video Driver (.exe) for Intel Mobile 915- sorry no 910. Works only on Windows 7, major bugs in Windows Vista. Please Email me if you want it. Bugs once in a while (please email if you find any). This is still in its infancy, but in about a year if intel signs it, I can had it out freely (hopefully). I reserve all rights.

The BDD only comes with Windows 8 because it was modded as an extra into the OS. The WDDM 1.2 in Windows 8 only supports the WDDM 1.2 driver and nothing else. You can't install the native XPDDM onto Windows 8 because it was removed.

Also botelucian, please post the specifications of your laptop to the forum or email them to me so that I can make a laptop/ destktop specific driver. The moddded driver only works on a Dell B130 with 2.1GHZ and 2GB of ram. Please remember that these drivers don't have full support behind them other than our dev. team. Intel doesn't accept their existence and Microsoft doesn't want to sign them.

First, thank you for the great work on providing the GMA driver!

I also have an issue with the minimum specs. My company notebooks are the ultraportable Toshiba Portege/Dynabook R200, which have the ultra low voltage 1.2GHz Pentium M CPU and only 1.2GB RAM and there is no way to upgrade beyond that. We have upgraded the pathetic 1.8" HDD to an SSD. The machine is powerful enough to run anything besides modern games and I have been using it with Win7 for almost a year. Here is the detailed spec: http://cdgenp01.csd.toshiba.com/content/product/pdf_files/detailed_specs/portege_R205-S209.pdf http://cdgenp01.csd.toshiba.com/content/product/pdf_files/detailed_specs/portege_R205-S209.pdf

Is there a way to bypass the hardware check of the installer? I am sure the machine is powerful enough, but most ultra low voltage CPUs are not clocked at 1.7GHz... And so much RAM is only required for cache which is not very important with the SSD we have...

Please post some instructions on how to bypass the hardware check and install the driver.

Thank you so much!

First off, your minimum specs should be adiqute for the Windows 8 BBD driver. I am guessing that you are using the Driver that I provided and not Windows 8. If you are using my driver, then there is little hope that it would run because of your specs. Of course, if it did run, it would slow down your PC to the piont were any apps that you are running would be 10x slower. That is the difference in speed becuase the driver is STAI and not WDDM or BBD. STAI drivers don't have any 'fake video' ram. This means that the processes have to be worked through only the Intel 915 '128MB' GPU, instead of the aid from the CPU. WDDM are hardware based without any other help and can perform these processes natively. Windows BBD drivers are software based 'liar' drivers which fake the entire system's ram and capacity to 64MB and get instructions from the CPU. Everything about Aero and BBD is virtual. Then again Windows is.

If you really want to run aero- you WILL regret it. Have a drive partioned or a spare drive and install the driver. The only way to bypass it is to change the registry settings, but it might screw up some of your apps. This is only a project, so its hard to tell what might happen.

Good luck.

kuyatsushiro6 -

I just finished loading up a full release copy of Windows 8 on my Asus Eee 1000HD, only to find the 915GM isn't supported by anyone (except you). The most recent link to your driver appears to be dead. I'd love to get my hands on a copy to test with the release version of Windows 8!

Thanks!

Same here i have a Eee PC 1000HD and Windows 8 is working fine, except the Video Driver, is not working.

I am suprised Windows 8 is working so well on this 900 Mhz Netbook...

Hi

I hope you are still able to send me a copy of the drivers.

It is frustrating to know a perfectly good laptop is limited due to the lack of a proper driver.

Please email me your Win 8 drivers to

mailto:quona2004@yahoo.com quona2004@yahoo.com

Thanks your efforts are much appreciated.

I'd really appreciate if I could get my hands on this too as I have a Lenovo ThinkPad z60t. If it wasn't for intel's garbage driver support. This laptop would still be top of the line. mailto:nick8649@gmail.com nick8649@gmail.com

First off just want to send out my appreciation for undertaking a project like this, it's not an easy task.

I am a student. I am broke and I can not afford a new laptop.

Basically, I have been avoiding Windows 7 because of the lack of support

for my 915 chipset. Unfortunately the university I attend forces me to

buy into a software program. For me to 'reclaim' my software I have been

forced to re-image my laptop with windows 7 including all the software I

have been forced to purchase. I have installed the windows xp video drivers

for my 915 chipset and they work but not good enough. Video playback and

using graphics editing programs like Photoshop have become unbearable, impossible.

So, if possible, I would really appreciate trying your drivers. Please please please send them my way...

All the best,

Terry Anastasiadis
