Intel Reinstalls Old Graphics Driver

[TLePa]

I have an 2nd Gen Intel i5 processor, and Intel HD 3000 graphics card, with the 9.17.10.3517 driver version. I noticed my graphics driver was very out of date, and so I tried to install the newest version. After downloading the installer, it displays the newest graphics driver as the one to be installed, but when the installation log comes up, it says "Version: 9.17.10.3517", rather than the driver I want to install. Even when I uninstall my old driver, it still installs it. What is the problem?

Hello TechnicLePanther,

For this kind of behavior it will be necessary to install the Graphics driver manually. Please download the zip.

Before installing this driver, I suggest you to uninstall all previous Graphics drivers http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/sb/CS-034574.htm Graphics Drivers — Uninstalling the Intel® Graphics Driver and Intel Display/HDMI Audio Driver

Then, manually install the latest Graphics driver version 3517

This is the procedure you need to follow if you are using Windows 7 http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/sb/CS-033915.htm Graphics Drivers — How to Manually Install a Driver in Microsoft Windows 7*

This is the procedure you need to follow if you are using Windows 8 and 8.1 http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/sb/CS-033916.htm Desktop graphics drivers — How to Manually Install a Driver in Microsoft Windows 8* or Windows 8.1*

If the issue persisted, you will need to install the drivers provided by your system manufacture. Please remember that we offer generic drivers and sometimes OEM systems does not allow the installation of them.
