Nuc8i7 graphics driver issue

[derfuchs98]

Seit einem automatischen Update des Graphiktreibers bekomme ich unschöne Graphikfehler auf meiner Nuc8i7beh mit Iris655.

OS: Win 10 nach update auf Win 11 unverändert

Treiber: GFX-Win10_Win11-30.0.101.1191

Können Sie mir weiterhelfen, bzw. eine Downloadadresse für einen Legacy-Treiber nennen?

Vielen Dank und viele Grüße

Jürgen

Latest release is 30.0.101.1660; give it a try. You can download the install package from here: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/19344/intel-graphics-windows-dch-drivers.html.

Hope this helps,

Seems to work!

Thank you very much.

Strange thing, however, the driver 101.1191 is marked as latest version on intels download page

LOL! No, not so strange. 1191 is the last release of the driver that was formally tested with the listed NUC models. Until such time as they formally validate another driver release with these NUCs, the release number listed and downloadable here will not change. Now, this does not mean that later releases will not work with these NUC models (and, in fact, in most cases they will work just fine); it simply means that they haven't been formally validated with these NUC models. The NUC team's rule is: If they haven't been formally tested, they cannot be listed.

LOL!!! It remains strange to me. The last release shows quite an obvious graphics issue, wich simply can't be overlooked, the untested driver does not. Someone should think of a new relase of the test protocol.

@derfuchs98did you uninstall the previous version first, or did you directly install the latest 30.0.101.1660?

Thank you

I just installed the new version. No further issued yet.

I had the exact same issues as you - in KODI though.

I couldn't fined a newer driver and had to do a System Restore to go back.

I have since updated to the later version and it seems fine.

No uninstallation necessary.

I just played a video and had the graphical glitches again.  Looks like Windows has 'updated' the driver again and reverted to the .1191 version, even though it's older than the one that was installed.

The Driver Support Assistant is happy enough with the 1160 driver - maybe you should let M$ know?

I guess Intel really need to either pull this driver - or make the newer one 'official'?

Hey SJW211,

I had the same the other day. You can prevent Windows  from automatically downloading driver udates e.g. here:  https://www.minitool.com/news/enable-disable-automatic-driver-updates-windows-11.html

I succeeded with Way 2. gpedit.msc 

Good luck!!

[SJW211]

Yes, I did it with gpedit too - which simply appears to add the ExcludeWUDriversInQualityUpdate key.

I guess my point is though, Windows wouldn't do it if the driver was either pulled or superseded.
