Intel HD Graphics 4600 Driver [15.40]

I am using Windows 10 x64 Laptop. And using Intel Driver & Support Assistant, I updated my onboard Intel HD Graphics 4600 Driver [15.40] to version 15.40.41.5058. Downloaded file is win64_15.40.41.5058.exe, dated Sep 18, 2018. So I'm sure I downloaded the right file.

 

However after installing, Intel Driver & Support Assistant keep displaying message "Update available". I tried re-downloaded and re-installed 3 times. Even the last time using a clean install (ie: I uninstall the driver and restart my laptop, before I re-installed again). And still IDSA keep displaying message "Update available", even though it still suggests the same version as the one currently installed.

 

On top of that. I also experience occassional crash while playing games. And yes I checked everything and I'm sure the Intel onboard Graphics caused the crashes, maybe because of a incompatibility wih the latest Windows 10 build 1809.

 

I also read the yellow message "Intel will be supplying Windows DCH Drivers for its products beginning in November" on the top of Intel Driver & Support Assistant website.

 

So all I want is to confirm if the 4600 driver is indeed still incompatible with current Windows 10 (since the dated latest driver is older than the Windows latest build), and whether Intel is still working on newer driver for it (the DCH Driver).

 

Thank you for your attention and support.
