Intel DSA says I need a graphics driver but it is already installed. WHY?

[sankarmukh]

Hi,

Task Manager says:
Driver Version:32.0.101.6881

Date: 6/4/2025

But, Intel DSA says with a popup that I need to udate Intel Iris Xe Graphics Driver.
But it is the same as above that is already installed.

I already refreshed etc. but it always thinks that I need that driver.

Why?

Ignore what IDSA says.  what is your processor model number?

Hi,
The processor is:

12th Gen IntelCore i7-1255U.

Thank you.

This is the latest driver for your processor graphics:

Hi, 
I kow that I have the latest driver for processor graphics. But, iDSA keeps saying that I need to install that.
I also saw that you wrote to ignore iDSA.

That is exactly the point, why iDSA would generate wrong pop-up saying that it needs to be updated.

Maybe I should ask CoPilot!!

Sure, go ahead and ask copilot.  Or, you can take my advice, as I am familiar with this worthless product since its beginning.

What was your advice? It was that I ignore what iDSA says. 
Anyway, maybe some real intel guy knows the answer.
Thanks anyway.

[AlHill]

Yep, Intel knows the real answer just as I do, but they are in too deep to abandon IDSA.

So, my advice is to ignore/not use IDSA, or to tell IDSA to ignore the graphics driver.

So, it is a "secret with pinky promise" between you and Intel. Got it.
