Requesting Driver download: igdkmd64.sys

Looking for Driver Download: igdkmd64.sys 

Hey Folks, I am looking for a particular driver, and it's driving me mad looking for it,
I have a Dell Optiplex 9020 tower: Windows 11 pro, 8GB, Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4570 CPU @ 3.20GHz 3.20 GHz,  1TB SSD, x64-based processor (Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600).
Can somebody please point me in the correct direction and tell/ show me what to do?

The particular driver(s) is: Igdkmd64.sys (published name: oem39.inf). This particular driver is related to the Intel HD Graphics Drivers for Windows(R), I have gone through every process imaginable and I just want a safe way to properly install said driver, can someone please help?
It has to do with the Memory Integrity of my PC - which is at this moment switched off.
I am able to use my PC fine, but just want to sort this issue out, this Driver has been switched off for a few months and now I need it fixed.

I have gone to Dell - and they're telling me that they do not have that particular driver for Windows 11 on the Optiplex 9020.
I have updated many drivers on my PC and still no fix. I am dubious about going any further without correct guidance, I do not want to "Brick" my PC, it is still fairly new and I am still paying it off, the last thing I want to do is damage it in any way.

Please reply with details.

Thanks

The i5-4570 is not supported by W1, thus your graphics are not supported by W11.

Hi Al, thanks for getting in touch - How can I proceed now then?, how do you suggest I move forward?, what can I do?, any help is welcome, thanks

Your processor (and graphics) are simply not supported by W11.   For you to get to W11, you had to apply a hack.  Microsoft warns that you may experience problems doing this.

What to do?  If you want to run W11, get a system with a supported processor.   Or, go back to W10.

You can run W11 on 8th gen and later processors, however I would recommend an 11th gen or later, only because of Intel's graphic driver position.

You may try some video card (nvidia, e.g.).
