Successful driver install?

[Rebop]

I have a Lenovo Laptop with HD620 card and Nvidia Card (chips?). Somewhere along the line, Lenovo or maybe Windows updated the Intel driver and I had the runaway RAM usage of DWM. Found the solution and downloaded .1191 driver and installed. At the end of the install the screen went to colored hash, no buttons. But I rebooted and all looked fine and the new Graphics Command Center (?) was installed.

Recently I developed a known issue (but no known solution) for an external monitor to go black when in the Develop Module of Lightroom. Says cannot find signal. Some people report updating drivers to help. So I started looking at all graphics drivers.

I found the attached log which makes me wonder id the driver installed successfully and would love to have this interpreted for me. Also, under device manager, driver eventsI have a message or two of concern. These may have been at the time of install but might provide clues:

Thanks!

HI Carlos. I was pretty specific. Started with Lenovo driver update which had the runaway DWM issue. I told the story.

Now the issue is Lightroom can have the external monitor go black with no signal only in the Develop module and only in Lightroom. So before I focus on the NVIDIA Optimus driver., where I "think" the fault lies, I want to be sure THIS driver is properly functioning.

Id di fdownload the Intel Driver Assist uitility today and felt it very system invasive and uninstalled it which left a bit it did not remove in unistall. So would prefer not to download another  utility.

Did you look at my file attached? See if this new attachment left over from Intel DSA answers what you need to confirm this driver is installed and working properly. You can see above why I am not totally sure.

Thanks.

Thanks.

Hi @Rebop, 

Thank you for your posts. Based on the information, yes, the .1191 driver was properly installed. 

 On the other hand, did IGCC open properly or did it generate the report when trying to open it? 

Best regards,

Thanks. I agree. And IGCC dopes open properly. Odd.

All this, btw, trying to sleuth and solve a problem:

Lenovo laptop with ultradock connected to Dell monitor via mDP.

ONLY in Lightroom and ONLY in the develop module it wil have the monitor go black and sometimes complain there is no signal on the mDP port. Either using the Intel Integrated or NVIDIA GPU.

No other activity, program or even Lighroom module causes this.

I cannot find the solution. Dock firmware up to date. Monitor drivers and both video drivers up to date. Its driving me a little mad 🙂

Thnks for the help, Carlos.

Hi @Rebop, 

Thank you for your post. This is an idea that can guide you in the right direction, on computers with 2 graphics cards we always recommend using the original equipment manufacturer drivers (OEM) since they improve our generic drivers to work better with your configuration. One thing to keep in mind is they might be older than the ones we offer, but based on your issue, it might be worth trying the OEM drivers for both cards. The drivers should be offered on Lenovo's website.

 If this does not change anything, another good idea would be to report this to Adobe to see if there is anything they need to fix on this module. 

 I'm happy to help, if you need anything let us know.

Perhaps I was not clear above, Carlos:

I have a Lenovo Laptop with HD620 card and Nvidia Card (chips?). Somewhere along the line, Lenovo or maybe Windows updated the Intel driver and I had the runaway RAM usage of DWM. Found the solution and downloaded .1191 driver and installed. At the end of the install the screen went to colored hash, no buttons. But I rebooted and all looked fine and the new Graphics Command Center (?) was installed.

The latest Intel driver at Lenovo is both OLD and FLAWED, which is why I went to Intel in the first place!

Adobe is aware. They have no solution.

It only seems to happen with an mDP connection...

Hi @Rebop,

 Thank you for your post. I completely understand, these are just some recommendations that I wanted to share. It will be good to also check with Lenovo and see if they have any other driver to offer, since you were having issues with the last one they put out.

 For now, are there any other questions for me?
