How to? Video driver update, MacAir 2011. (Cim City video error)

Hi...
Can't play Sim City on my Mac Air mid 2011 OSX 10.7.5 with Intel HD 3000 graphics due to green stripes over the game screen.
Anybody know how to update the driver?
I tried Intel's automatic detection service, but it failed.
Any ideas?

>a nice NVidia card... Please help Adobe!
1a - what is the model nVidia card, and what is your driver version?
1b - for instance, I have a GTX 285 and driver 296.10
2a - aside from the occassional Adobe employee, this is a user to user forum, not Adobe suport
2b - how to contact Adobe...

Intel HD video driver update forced antialiasing problem

X220, Windows 7 x64. After video driver update from version 8.15.10.2769 to 9.17.10.2843 I noticed the text is blurry because some kind of antialiasing has been applied. I use Windows Classic theme and have ClearType turned off. The kind of anti-aliasing was different than the one used in Windows. I had to revert back to driver version 8.15.10.2769 to get rid of that.
I haven't found any setting in Intel video advanced settings to disable it. Note that I'm talking about anti-aliasing in 2D mode, not 3D games. It seems as some kind of subpixel antialising has been applied by the driver
Attached screenshot not a very good quality but the difference is noticeable:

Hello,
I am not sure if this will make a difference or not, but have you tried enabling ClearType and using the ClearType Tuner (filename: CTTUNE.EXE) to see if you can come up with a setting that you like?

Time for a Video Driver Update -- 'M' Series

As you all may know (I'll re-state it here for those that do not) nVidia forces the user to go to their manufacturer (in this case Apple) for all graphic driver updates for the mobile 'M' graphic chips in laptops or lower end boxes.
What I am searching/looking for from Apple is a MUCH needed graphic driver update. And please... do not suggest that I browse through laptopvideo2go.com as I want APPLE to release an official graphic driver update.
I am running into an issue where many of the newer games I attempt to play under Bootcamp refuse to run or highly advise updating the graphic drivers because of known issues/problems.
When visiting the nVidia website (support section) I find that the newest release on thier drivers refuse to install because they must SPECIFICALLY come from Apple (in the case of my MBP).
So... Apple, how about showing us some loving and updating the nVidia drivers. This would be MUCH appreciated.

Hi Xoraji,
It's not just Apple, that's a common practice for many laptop manufacturers. For example, my work laptop is a Gateway with an ATI chip and I can't use the latest Catalyst drivers from ATI's site, instead I have to use whatever drivers Gateway makes available, which haven't been updated in over 2 years.
I have a four years old Toshiba Notebook, for which the last ATI Graphics Driver Update from Toshiba was three years back.
I have used a modded ATI Driver package since then and no problem with it.
Luckily for me I don't have to rely on latest drivers, since the Notebook is only used for Business apps.
I agree with you, available video drivers need to be updated much more frequently than what is currently offered. I think 167.44 was the latest Nvidia driver officially released by Apple and that's pretty old by now.
Right about that.

Video driver update prob

HP Pavillion p6610t pc. Intel g41 chipset, Intel graphics media accelerator x4500 [vga].
I need driver update for gaming. Per Intel support, my driver is customized and cannot be updated. Additionally a generic driver would cause issues. I will purchase a new card if that is my only option. Help.

I believe 250W is the norm for HP consumer PC's without discrete video cards.
Maybe they put in a 300W P/S when you get an add on card.
Here is a link to a very good card which folks say work in PC's with as low as 220W.

How to uninstall driver update

Previous to and on the day of October 13, I successfully scanned 35mm slides until the Epson driver update 2.18 was installed in the background. While the scanner produces regular images, it no longer scans transparencies. How can I rollback the driver so I can the previously successful older driver?

It may be possible, but you will need to know what files make up the driver software and where they are installed. I'm afraid I can't help you. Now, if you visit Epson you may be able to download the previous driver.

Intel Video driver update

I am going to download a multimedia editing software that I am buying from an online store. They adviced to check if I need to update my Intel video driver, among other things. I went to Toshiba Site, and I don't see any video drivers updates available there. I then went to Intel, and there is one. My question is: Is it necessary to download this update from Intel?
The driver I have now is version: 10.18. 10 3345. The one in Intel is
Version: 15.33.32.64.4061 (Latest) Date: 01/08/2015
Toshiba Satellite P845t- S4305 laptop
Windows 8.1
IE 11
Computer is 1 year old.
Thank you

Is it necessary to download this update from Intel?
I certainly can't answer that. But I do have some comments.
It's usually best to stick with the drivers that OEMs offer for laptops. That's because laptop makers sometimes tweak the chips and drivers. So the device maker's driver no longer works right. For that reason, I never permit Windows Update to change any drivers.
If you do get the newer driver from the Intel site, it will likely refuse to install, with a message something like..
The driver being installed is not validated for this computer. Please obtain the appropriate driver from the computer’s manufacturer. Setup will exit.
That doesn't necessarily mean it won't work - or even be better. It just means Intel doesn't want to be responsible for any troubles you may have.
They in fact offer a workaround here (scroll down).

ATI Mobility Radeon X1300 video driver update

I updated my video driver using the Lenovo update. The updated driver, 8.533.3.1-081110a-075168 79d177ww.exe is causing me to have extremely slow response time that I didn't experience previously. I am running with XP Professional (SP2). Is there a way to go to a back-level driver? Even typing this note is painfully slow. I have the latest BIOS and Presentation Manager.

you could also download the Omega ATI catalyst driver, which works just as great and have some more features.

"Critical" Video driver update corrupted video driver T400

I have a T400 type 6475 - P9U running windows Ultimate. This morning I noticed I had a message in the Thinkvantage Toolbox. The system had run a scan and determined that there were updates needed. Unfortunately I downloaded the two critical updates. One of them related the the video drivers. The installation hung with an error about ATI drivers not being present. I powered off and rebooted. Now the drivers are corrupted, can't access my second monitor, and the best resolution is 800 x 600. I tried to re-run the update and I get an access denied error, even if it is run as administrator. Lenovo support is no help, the warranty expired last November.
Any suggestions appreciated. I can download the ATI Catalyst Suite from Cnet, but I thought I would check in here first.
Thanks,
Brian

Hi lofquist
According to Detailed Specification of 6475-P9U, your laptop does not have ATI GPU, probably something wrong with the ThinkVantage System Update. I am not too sure, you can confirmed it in the Device Manager.
Only some T400 ships with dual display adapters. If your T400 has ATI adapters, you would probably see switchable graphics options in Lenovo Power Manager. The purpose of both integrated and discrete display adapters is to achieve both battery life and performance. When you need more battery life, you could switch to Intel integrated GPU. When you need more performance, you could switch to ATI discrete GPU.
Hope this answers your question.

Video driver won't load in windows xp Error message 39

Video driver update?? when???

is lenovo planning to release any video update?! last gpu update was at
07 Nov 2011
i try to play now diablo 3 open beta with lenovo drivers and it aint working i have to download the drivers from nvidia to make it work...
its really weird that lenovo simply abandons the gpu drivers...

What W series machine do you have and what video? It is interesting that you have had no problems using the 296 drivers. Both the 295 and 296 drivers series have been problematic for me on my w520. When I try to use those drivers (to include the latest 296.35) I start having power problems. My machine will go to sleep after about three minutes on it's own regardless of no idle timers being set in the power settings. The 301.24 beta, 296.35, and 295.37 drivers do this. When I use the 285.62 and Lenovo's drivers the problem does not appear. I have a ticket open with Nvidia and they are still testing. Due to other issues (that could be related) I also have a ticket open with Lenovo to just go ahead and replace the motherboard next week. I still would not mind to hear about anyone else using 295 or 296 release series Nvidia drivers and their experiences.My machine is a w520, Quadro 2000M, 16gb and Win 7 x64 Ult.Thanks

Catalyst Control Center crashes with new video driver update

Hi Folks,
I just updated to the newest rev of the ATI driver (April 28, 2009). Now, catalyst control center crashes at startup, opening a dialog box that says, "catalyst control center monitoring program has encountered a problem and needs to close".
Has anyone else run into this? Any ideas on how to fix it?
Thanks,

[Solved.]Possible GUI/Video Driver update break?

Yesterday, I did a Update/Upgrade like usual and everything seemed fine. After a reboot, GUI (XFCE) seemed slightly broken.
By "slightly" I mean, only one virtual desktop was available instead of the four I had set, and compositing wasn't working,
leading me to believe that something driver related was changed. I installed NVIDIA and NVIDIA-UTILS over my nouveau driver as stated in wiki (my card is Geforce 6200 agp). I was also in the process of tweaking my .xinitrc on unrelated problem and tried some settings with that but no help. I changed .xinitrc back to the way it was, but now I am stuck with SLiM login prompt that doesn't allow login, and TTY's seem to frozen on the output from loading the OS, not allowing me to fix from terminal.
Question 1: are the two problems related?
Question 2: was there recently a nouveau breaking update recently?
any ideas or directions on things to try are greatly appreciated, I am currently at work and unable to get to the arch
machine, so I am unable to post any output, just looking for some insight.
