Unable to update Intel HD 4000 driver to 15.33.30.64.3958

Hi i recently downgraded to "windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit", I have an Acer E1-571 and have had a lot of issues with driver's.

As I am sure some of you other Acer users there driver support is awful and i had to download drivers from else where. I have noticed an issue tho, for some reason i cannot install the driver version "15.33.30.64.3958" it says it installs but when I check driver version it is "10.18.10.4061", although this driver version is not the worse i still really need to upgrade to 15.33.30.64" as its more stable and will provide better performance.

I hope someone is able to help em as is a very annoying problem

Many Thanks

Dexter

Hi Dexter, you are actually trying to downgrade from "4061" to "3958".

You may want to take a look into the release dates for the driver versions and if you still need to use "3958" I recommend you uninstalling the version your computer is currently using.
