Unable to update Graphics Driver ? Windows 8.1 crashing my damn system !

[LScou]

Upgrading to windows 8.1 Was the worst thing that ever happened to me but ofc Microsoft has to force us to try this new filed technology , Disguarding the fact everybody's Computer is different . Every since i had to upgrade to windows 8.1 it's literally been one problem after another . Well i need to update my drivers and CAN'T . I blame this on Windows 8.1 update . Anyways , I came here and used the Intel Drivers Utility . I was going to download it but got DC , My internet is poor . When i came back to try again it said

The file that you are trying to download has either been moved, renamed or archived . This sucked for me . It kept saying that over and over so i tried looking for the drivers myself and i thought i had found it but the download said " the driver being installed is not validated " Ect . I tried again and got the same error message . I desparately need to update my drivers MY LAPTOP G.C is Crashing because of STUPID windows 8.1 update . PLEASE Help

My Graphics say i have " Intel(R) HD Graphics 4000 " Thats it . Nothing more .

And when i tried to update it from the Device manager it said the driver was already up to date which is NOT TRUE . The current Version is 10.18.10.3308 .

Please PLEASE help me . It would be a REAL shame if i had to partition for a reset back to windows 8 and lose ALL my data !

Hi Momosaki, let me give you some options:

• Please uninstall Intel® HD Graphics driver. http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/sb/CS-034574.htm Graphics Drivers — Uninstalling the Intel® Graphics Driver and Intel Display/HDMI Audio Driver
• Install Intel® HD Graphics driver.
  • https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=24346&lang=eng&ProdId=3712 15.33.30.3958 (32-bit)
  • https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=24329&lang=eng&ProdId=3712 15.33.30.64.3958 (64-bit)
  • https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=23884 15.33.22.3621 (32-bit)
  • https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=23885&lang=eng&ProdId=3712 15.33.22.64.3621 (64-bit)
• If the driver does not install by running the exe file you can always try the manual installation method with the zip file. http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/sb/CS-033916.htm Desktop graphics drivers — How to Manually Install a Driver in Microsoft Windows 8* or Windows 8.1*
• You may also try to get the latest driver directly from the http://www.intel.com/support/oems.htm system manufacturer since Intel provides generic drivers that may not work with some computer models due to customization from the manufacturer; therefore, we strongly recommend getting the drivers and software from the computer manufacturer as they have tested them with your system.

I tried installing the Exe and got the same message as i stated previously ,

the driver being installed is not validated . And it wasn't possible to update it with the Zip-file either

because it then said " Windows has determined your drivers are at their best " . Which is BS cause its NOT .

When i tried to unistall it ... idk what happened . It like it installed itself back PLEASE HELP. My Mal is such

a fail so i can't access drivers there.

1. Reboot your computer.

2. Carefully follow the "Have Disk" method to update your driver.
