New Beta Driver won't install

Hello, fellow Intel users! I just got an account here, and I have a problem. I have been having problems with games like Swtor and WoW freezing and crashing. Someone on the Swtor forums recommended I install the new Beta driver to try to fix it, but I cannot get in installed. I know there is a ZIP file, but when I press "extract" and it does its job, but nothing happens. It doesn't get installed. He said he didn't know what the problem was, I have an Intel 4600..

I have been having the same issues. Every time I go to install the drivers, it only installs and http://www.traininginsholinganallur.in/hadoop-training-in-chennai.html HDMI audio driver, and AMD Install Manager, and AMD Gaming Evolved App.I cant get any sort of Radeon Settings or CCC type program to install anymore. I have tried everything listed above.Same problem for me on a 6870HD, version 15.11 installed and keeps saying there's an update (15.11).

For me, it just puts the beta file in, without actually installing anything. I need this driver to play games without freezing. Anyone know how to fix this?

Thank you for the instructions. You linked an outdated beta driver by accident, but I got the new one installed. The only problem is, Swtor has some issues, but that is probably just a fault with the game.

Hello, Masterofcards:

Sorry about that link sent incorrectly, I changed the link to the latest beta version available as of 3/4/2016.

But indeed I am glad you were able to get them installed and working.

Have you checked with their communities or forum support?

If you require any further information or support, feel free to contact the Intel Communities again.

Regards,

The person I'm talking too said it might be one of the known issues with Intel Drivers. "Game may exit if quality settings are set to high on Hitman Absolution* on 4th/5th Generation Intel Core Processors" That's my problem with Swtor. I also have an issue where many characters have black eyes. he suggested that it might be a problem with my video card, and Star Wars: The Old Republic brings it out. Do you have any insight on that?

I don't understand a lot of what it's asking for. Is there a way to quickly find this information about my computer?
