Win 10 Graphic Driver

[Deleted member 2913]

When I did clean install of Win 10...I used Intel Graphic Driver of my previous Win 7 system. My laptop is HP so I downloaded the graphic driver from HP for my laptop model.
When I was installing graphic driver Win 10 mentioned the graphic driver installed on the system is newer to the driver you are installing. I guess it was Win 10 included graphic driver. I continued installing my graphic driver.
I am occasionally getting graphic driver not responded & recovered on Win 10.
Should I uninstall my graphic driver & let Windows Updates to update the graphic driver that it mentioned was newer than mine?
Or should I install the latest graphic driver from Intel website?

When installing latest graphic driver should I uninstall the installed driver or it will be upgraded?

Any other driver I should download the latest version from the manufacturer itself & install for Win 10?

I always prefer to download from the manufactures website way before letting microsoft find one for me, and i always do a clean install of the driver.

If Intel has a Win10 driver, I would run that (or if hp actually has a Win10 driver); otherwise, I'd let Win10 update it (I have on my laptop; it's using the Windows Update Intel driver).

I definitely would not run the Win7 driver.

GWX mentioned my system Win 7 is completely compatible so I used all the drivers on the system & no probs except this occasional graphic driver prob.

So if I uninstall my graphic driver Windows Updates will install the graphic driver?

Uninstalled my graphic driver. Micrsoft basic driver was there & everything was looking big. Windows Updates found & installed updated driver & things are fine now.

That just means your hardware is compatible, not the drivers you have installed. Drivers interface the OS to the hardware; hence, new OS, new drivers.

Well that's primarily depends, better check for the latest version on manufacturer website and let refresh the Windows Update if it can see something new, because drivers should be done properly on manual process.

Its hard for me to find correct graphic driver on manufacturer site as there are so many drivers.

When I select Win 10 64 Bits in the drop down menu above the page is not loading i.e circle/loading keeps spinning.

During boot black screen appears for few secs before logon screen...could this be coz of graphic driver?
I am running Windows Defender...no third party security software.

It seems Everyone is getting the Black Screen with the Cursor error. Let me know if you come across a Solution for this Problem.

I thought the prob is here only.
Good to know its a universal prob & hope would be fixed soon by MS.

For my driver, I went onto Nvidia site, entered all the right details in the drop downs, chose Windows 10, made sure my card was listed (it was), downloaded the file and made it do a clean install.

When I tried to uninstall the driver (from device manager as it wasn't listed in installed programs), it just reinstalled itself. I can see what people mean by WIndows Update conflicting with Nvidia. Installing the driver from Nvidia increased the reliability of Windows a far sum. Windows 10 is still bugged. I have had no problems yet but a family member had a broken windows store. Had to manually repair it myself.

If Windows Update continue to install drivers automatically, at some point I'd imagine a conflict that might wreck the system. Ex: no long booting or just a black screen

Try the automatic checker from Intel to see if the driver can be recognized, but if still not working then manual update is your only choice.

Weird, it does that for me when I select "Driver" (left box) only. Just select Win10 on the right side and it will work (there are only four total downloads for "all")

The automatic checker won't work if you're being smart proactive and downloading drivers prior to OS (re)install. Plus, I don't like automatic things for stuff that break when it's wrong (and it will be wrong since 100% bug free isn't always the case).

I think those drivers are not for my laptop model.

normally if you have installed the nvidia driver from WinUpdate , the Nvidia icon notifies you that a new version is present and redirect you to it.

They are video drivers, not laptop drivers.
Customised video hardware is en passant but if you do have laptop-specific video vendor ID hardware, the driver won't install and will instead tell you that it can't find compatible hardware.

The below was my previous driver that was giving prob on Win 10 i.e was getting graphic driver not responded & recovered.
Intel Mobile Intel 4 Series Express Chipset Family (HP)

I uninstalled my driver & then device manager - display adapter showed "Microsoft basic display adapter" & Windows Updates updated to---
Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM 1.1)

This is working fine.

I think will go with this as getting the latest correct driver is little confusing for me.
