Intel GMA 4500MHD Windows 8.1 driver

Hi guys,

I just installed Win 8.1 and I'm having a problem finding a driver for my graphic card.

Right now I have the standard Win 8.1 driver installed, that came with the Win Setup:

The only driver I could find is this one:

https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=23639 https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=23639

but it doesn't have my 4500 listed.

The only real reason why I need an Intel driver is cause I need the "Intel Graphics and Media Control Panel"

I also found this workaround:

but it clearly states that it doesn't work on Windows 8.1

Thanks in advance!

Hello fuyao,

Let me help you with this.

Based on the image you have posted your computer uses a Mobile Intel® 4 Series Express Chipset and this is the reason why the driver you tried is not working. The driver above is for the latest graphics controller Intel® HD 4600 and ivy Bridge products.

You can get the latest driver for your system at the following link:

https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=22167 https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=22167

This driver is for Windows 7. I regret to inform you that the latest drivers for the graphics controller in your system are for Windows 7 only.

You can try this driver but we do not guarantee it will work. In case it fails, my best recommendation is to contact the Computer Manufacture for them to provide the driver for your unit.

Hi fuyao,

Thanks for the link http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/faq/id-1656437/install-intel-display-drivers-windows.html http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/faq/id-1656437/install-intel-display-drivers-windows.html

It work on my Windows 8.1 x64

When I try with two file display drivers download from Intel site, doesn't work.

When I try with Intel Graphics Media Accelerator HD, v.8.15.10.2104_R269261.exe (for Dell Ins N4030), work ok.

My result:

Good luck 4 u!
