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?

Hello, I been having off and on BSOD issue and I was advided to possibly update my video driver via this site to the latest. The problem is that when I try to update it keep telling me that my laptop does not meet the minimum requirement and it would abort the update.However, I dont get why it wouldn't meet minimum requirement and it doesn't note anywhere within readme file what is the minimum requirement to install this latest video driver. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

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).

Intel HD Graphics Driver Update

I have an HP Pavillion g7 Notebook with Radeon HD 6470M graphics. I was prompted to udate the graphics driver through HP assistant. I have downloaded it 3 times and each time it will not install. When it gets to the install part it gives me a warning that my internet security is shut off and then gives me an installation failure. If I go to the AMD website to get the update it says I have to do it through the manufacturer of my laptop. Anyone know why I cannot install this update?
This question was solved.

Hi:
You should ignore any Microsoft updates or ANY update (from HP, Microsoft or AMD) for the Intel video in your PC.
The only driver you can install in your notebook is the AMD driver from your notebook's support and driver page, which also installs the Intel video driver.
The problem is happening because these auto updates don't know that you have switchable graphics and it is detecting an older version of the Intel video driver and wants to install a newer version.
The problem is the AMD driver on your PC's support and driver page only supports the older Intel video driver and trying to install it will either not work or will mess up your video.
Nor can you use any driver directly from AMD. None of those have the Intel driver needed for the switchable graphics to work.
So, you can hide the update, ignore the update, whatever setting you need to select to not see or install it.
If you see an HP update specifically for the AMD/Intel switchable graphics in your notebook, you can install that.

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.

ThinkPad 8 - Intel HD Graphics driver update ?

The only video driver provided is http://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/pccbbs/mobiles/gtha02ww.txt version 10.18.10.3408 by Jan 2014. Intel offers generic driver https://downloadcenter.intel.com/search?keyword=Intel%C2%AE+HD+Graphics+for+Intel%C2%AE+Atom%E2%84%A2+Processor+Z3700+Series version 10.18.10.4176 but the installation fails with error message that the device uses a customized OEM driver and can not be updated. Is there any Lenovo updated driver ? I got few BSODs GRAPHICS_DRIVER_TDR_TIMEOUT recently related to the driver.

It looks like Intel released a new update (4226) just a couple of days ago, I took a look at the igdlh.inf changes and it looks to be very close to the Lenovo configuration, so I'm giving it a try with good success so far. No stability issues and power consumption might be just a tiny bit improved (.1W or so less?) Differences appear to be:- New TiledDisplay internal setting, enabled by default- TrayIcon enabled by default (easily turned off)- Diagnostics tab disabled in igfxcui (non-issue)- Additional game workarounds for Halo2, etc. Halo on the TP8!? :-) Use device manager to install just the igdlh.inf in the Graphics\ directory of the Intel zip, no need for the other stuff. 64-bit: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/downloads/eula/24973/Intel-HD-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-7-8-8-1-64-bit?httpDown=http%3A%2F%2Fdownloadmirror.intel.com%2F24973%2Fa08%2Fwin64_153336.zip 32-bit: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/downloads/eula/24972/Intel-HD-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-7-8-8-1-32-bit?httpDown=http%3A%2F%2Fdownloadmirror.intel.com%2F24972%2Fa08%2Fwin32_153336.zip

Video Driver Update

My HP G5370uk has Intel HD Graphics driver version 8.15.10.2119. Because the driver is so old, I cannot update to Windows 7 SP1 because there is an interaction with Windows Live Mail. Is there a newer driver available or a workaround that will allow me to update Windows 7?

I'll start at the beginning
I run windows 7 and want to update to IE10 or 11 but there is no option on windows update so I tried to find out why, turns out you have to have SP1 installed first but again there is no option on windows update.
I checked microsoft website and eventually found that because my graphics driver is old it does not support some of the updates to various microsoft products including livemail, but not limited to that, therefore I am not given the option to get SP1 unless/until I upgrade the driver.
I tried several different methods to update the driver but after checking with intel their systems tell me that because the driver is an oem to HP and they have modified it I must get an update from HP only they dont seem to have one available.
Having trawled through several forums I have found 2 other users who have had the same problem, the only way both of them managed to solve it was to install a new graphics card!
Update:
Finally found this and will give it a try http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-Operating-Systems-Software-Recovery/Intel-Graphics-driver-stopp...

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.

T500 Video Driver Update Questions.

2242CTO, W7 Pro-64, Mobile Intel 4 Series Express Chipset with v8.15.10.1855 driver. I have started to see what looks like display corruption while using Office Excel 2003. Restarting system appears to fix the corruption problem for a while but it eventually reappears after using Excel for a period of time. Has anyone upgraded from this initial release of 7xd808ww.exe (21 Oct 2009) driver? What version did you upgrade to? TIA for you help.
Bob Helms

No. My corruption involves toggling between 2 Excel spreadsheets. When it occurs the gridlines surrounding the active cell(s) are painted incorrectly on the display. In some cases I can toggle back and forth several times and the gridlines suddenly are painted correctly. I have also noticed my email client (Thunderbird) exhibiting a jerky motion while displaying my inbox. This only occurs after swapping into Thunderbird from another app. This jerky display happens very quickly and then disappears. My heavy Excel usage started only recently and the problem may have been here since I upgraded to W7 last December. Seeing that the driver has been updated I was hoping someone else my have already upgraded for whatever reasons and I was looking for feedback before I upgraded. Thanks.
