Updating Graphics Drivers

I have two identical Windows 7 Professional PCs which were delivered with the following item listed for each earlier this year:

Bx80623152500K Intel Core i5 2500K 4x 3.3 GHz 6MB CACHE INTEGRATED GRAPHICS

The graphucs performance varies in each machine and I have sought and cannot find, updated drivers.

Help to find updated drivers would be appreciated, and advice on how to instal them.

Is this the sensible thing to do at first ?

Hello,

The latest driver for the video controller in that processor is posted here:

http://downloadcenter.intel.com/SearchResult.aspx?lang=eng&ProductFamily=Graphics&ProductLine=Desktop+graphics+drivers&ProductProduct=2nd+Generation+Intel%C2%AE+Core%E2%84%A2+Processors+with+Intel%C2%AE+HD+Graphics+3000/2000&ProdId=3319&LineId=1100&FamilyId=39 http://downloadcenter.intel.com/SearchResult.aspx?lang=eng&ProductFamily=Graphics&ProductLine=Desktop+graphics+drivers&ProductProduct=2nd+Generation+Intel%C2%AE+Core%E2%84%A2+Processors+with+Intel%C2%AE+HD+Graphics+3000/2000&ProdId=3319&LineId=1100&FamilyId=39

 

You just need to load the exe file that is listed as the latest and this will install everything itself.

Please be aware that we provide generic drivers that have not been developed or tested specially for your system. Each motherboard, laptop or Original Equipment Manufacturer can add, remove and change features on the video controllers they implement on their systems. Therefore they provide customized drivers to support such changes. So we always recommend using the latest drivers provided directly by your motherboard or Original Equipment Manufacturer.

If during the installation of the Intel generic drivers you get this message: "driver not validated on this computer", go here for further instructions:
