I have a Gateway NV79 laptop with Inel HD graphics driver and it keeps crashing if I open Youtube or any other application with flash player, I replaced original hard drive with new one as old one corrupted coz of too many reboots, I restored factory settings in new hard drive and no other application installed other than vendor apps and I tried different versions of Intel HD drivers as Intel support suggested, but nothing seems to fix the issue. If I uninstall the driver then system stays stable, but display isn't good and the max resolution I have is 1024x768. I came across so many other forums and found that I can't install any other display drivers like nvidia as graphics card is built-in. Has anyone come across this issue and fixed it? This is really killing me, and I don't want to buy another new laptop as I am waiting for Windows 8 release. Any help is really appreciated.
Thanks,
Sathish

Hi there!
According to your computer specifications, your system comes with switchable graphics. This means you have Intel graphics and ATI graphics as integrated video. I regret to inform you that the Intel graphics drivers do not work for systems with switchable graphics. Intel recommends loading drivers directly from Gateway.
For additional information, refer to link below:
