Skyrim: SE texture glitches for Baytrail Mobile

Dear Intel,

I am having a problem in Skyrim Special Edition where some textures of things like hair are gray, and blue. I know this problem has been fixed before but only in a driver update for newer generation intel hd graphics. That is a problem for me because I have a Celeron N2840 with 3rd Generation Intel HD Graphics Mobile (baytrail). I have tried updating to the new drivers (.4885) but the problem persists. So I ask if you can please release the fix for my version of intel hd graphics because I really want to be able to play Skyrim on my laptop.

Hoping for the best,

E.A

Hello SuperCy

 

 

Thank you for joining the Intel® community.

 

 

Have you tried a clean installation of the Intel® graphics driver? See the steps below.

 

 

Please provide me with a video of the error that you are having.

 

 

Clean installation steps:

 

 

First, you will have to download theIntel® HD Graphics for Intel Atom® Processor Z3700 Series driver version on the following https://downloadmirror.intel.com/27417/a08/win64_15.33.46.4885.zip https://downloadmirror.intel.com/27417/a08/win64_15.33.46.4885.zip, once the driver is downloaded please make sure that the unit is not connected to the internet during the uninstall/install driver to avoid any automatic update, and follow these steps to uninstall the graphics drivers:

 

  1. On the keyboard, press WinLogo key + R, then type in devmgmt.msc
  2. Expand the Display Adapters section.
  3. Find the Intel® Graphics Driver. The driver can also be called the Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator Driver (Intel® GMA Driver).
  4. Right-click the Intel Graphics Driver and select Uninstall.
  5. Select the checkbox Delete the driver software for this device.
  6. Reboot the computer after the uninstall process has finished.

 

Repeat this steps until you get to the Microsoft basic display adapter.

 

 

Once the reboot is completed, please follow these steps in order to update the graphics driver:
  1. Use the .zip file downloaded previously.
  2. Unzip the file to a designated location or folder.
  3. Right-click on the Windows Start icon and open Device Manager.
  4. Click "Yes" when prompted for permission from User Account Control.
  5. Expand the Display adapters section.
  6. Right-click the Intel® graphics entry and select Update Driver Software.
  7. Click "Browse my computer for driver software".
  8. Click "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer".
  9. Click "Have Disk".
  10. Click "Browse".
  11. Access the designated location or folder, and access a folder called "Graphics".
  12. Select the file called "igdlh64" or "igdlh".
  13. Click Open, then click OK, and finally click "Next". Drivers are now being installed.
  14. Reboot your computer.
  15. And let me know if you have any issues during the installation.

Hope this helps.

 

 

Regards,

 

Leonardo C.

I tried that but it didn't work. I don't think using the exe will make a difference but tomorrow I will try the zip.

Hello SuperCy

 

 

Thank you for the information and for sharing/reporting these Textures glitching with Skyrim on Baytrail (15.33). allow me to share with you that since this is very old platform it is extremely unlikely that we'll take this bug, please bear in mind that we cannot promise any particular outcome, you could also consider the new 7th Generation platforms for the optimum performance with the latest games.

 

 

Best Regards,

 

Leonardo C.
