Hi everyone,
I'm hoping I can find some answers here. I have an HP Omen which has the i7-4710HQ processor. Every now and then, the graphics display driver will crash with Windows explicitly advising me that the driver is for Windows. I also occasionally experience weird intermittent hangs. Well, I decided to do some research and see if the drivers needed updating - as per HP's website, there is no Windows 10 update from them to offer. However, support on the Intel Website says a different story. However, when I try to update the graphics driver using the new driver provided by Intel, I experience an error that essentially explains that since HP has customized the driver before, the installer is unable to install itself on top; even simply uninstalling the driver and trying to install the new one produces an error.
Has anyone else experienced the weird issues with crashes/hangs on a computer upgraded from Windows 8? How were they able to remedy this? Thanks for your help in advance.

Hello, AxelRoldos:
Have you tested with the manual installation of the driver?

OEMs are entitled to block the installation of third party drivers into their systems, since apparently Windows 10* is not supported on your product, you can contact them (if the previous recommendation doesn't work) and request another installation method that can allow you to test our generic drivers.
Generic drivers available as of now: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/25848/Intel-Beta-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-7-8-1-10-15-40-?v=t https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/25848/Intel-Beta-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-7-8-1-10-15-40-?v=t
I look forward to your outcome with this.
Regards,
Esteban C
