Update intel 945 graphics drivrs in xp?

hi,
i have the latest mac mini, and it has 945 intel graphics.
i want to know if i can DL and use the newest driver from intel, or will that botch my mini?
obviously, i only want to use the driver on the xp side, but i think it also has video bios enhancements and so on and i did some surfing and saw some posts that made it sound like this wasn't wise.
does anyone know if i can do this or not? the driver i want to use is here:
http://downloadcenter.intel.com/filter_results.aspx?strTypes=all&ProductID=2102& OSFullName=Windows*XPProfessional&lang=eng&strOSs=44&submit=Go%21
i assume i want the first one, not the embedded one.
anyone have any exp with this? my current driver seems to be: 6.14.10.4833 (may 25 '07)

Hello mrsinatra,
So why did you buy mac mini since you want to use it with Windows XP?! You should better buy Dell mini pc or whatever (maybe AOpen mini pc). Mac mini is a MAC MINI, and its power is on MacOS do not forget this
Now seriously,
Using BootCamp you can install XP and then on your MacOS DVD you have all necessary drivers for your mac mini. You can of course download the latest drivers from Intel. However I think they are the same as the ones provided on your MacOS DVD. Personally I would not experiment with suspicious drivers, even if they are pretend to be the ones made by the manufacturer. Mac mini has one advantage over all other computers : its hardware is carefully selected to run with maximum power and robustness, so its better to trust on Apple provisioning rather than someone else.
Best regards.

    Hi p,
    If you mean software, go to the Apple menu and select Software Update.
    If you mean the actual hardware GPU, that is soldered onto the logic board and is not upgradeable.

  • Unable to update Intel HD graphics drivers on my new computer

    Hi,
    I just recently bought a desktop HP Pavilion PC with Windows 8 64-bit which includes an Intel HD Graphics card but when I try to download the latest driver for my graphics (version 15.33.18.64.3496) on Intel's site it says I need to download it from PC manufacturer.
    When I search for this update either on HPs site or using HP Support Assistant, it is not appearing so I cannot download it. This is causing me to run games in 'fair' graphics to lower the framerate and the games all say i need to update my video card.
    Please help, growing frustrated!!
    P.S. i've now upgraded to Windows 8.1 but still not resolved the issue.
    Thanks,

    Thank you for the additional information.
    I normally recommend a PSU with at least 500W.  However, 600W is better for future upgrades.  Here is a Corsair PSU that will do a good job.  Corsair makes enthusiast quality products for a good price.  It is best to measure the existing PSU to assure that the new one will fit.
    As for video cards, I like XFX, EVGA, Sapphire and PNY in that order.  I came to these preferences from being on many enthusiast/gamer forums over the years.  You should pick a video card and get the measurements.  Then, make a template the same size and to see if it will fit into the space provided.  You should add at least one inch if the card has extra power connector/s.  Normally, a card in the range of 9" to 9.5" will work fine.  Newegg is a good place to shop for cards.  Their specifications are more complete than other etailers.  It would be good if you find a card.  Post a link and I will review it for you.

    I can no longer view some youTube in full screen.I hane nto had this issue before. I did all suggested: Updated Adobe (all products) and disabled hardware acceleration. The last recommendation is to Update the Intel HD Graphics drivers and I don't know how. I know almost nothing about computers (I should say I know nothing). Is there someone who can assist me?

    The product specs page for your PC indicates it comes with a NVidia graphics adapter, not an Intel one.

  • Lenovo g570 - problems after updating intel hd graphics

    Hello!
    I think i came across a small bug. Don't know for sure which software is to blame, but i think it's the Lenovo Energy Management's  fault. 
    I bought a lenovo g570, with intel integrated graphics driver. Installed w7 64 sp1, drivers from DVD. After a while windows update popuped with intel hd graphics new driver. After installing it, the brightness indicator (the thing that pops up when u change the brightness from the keyboard) got stuck at level 2 even if the display brightness was changing.
    After 2 days i changed my mind and installed w7 32 sp1  after finding out it was a bit pointless to have it these days when lots of programs are running on 32bits. The same thing happened on this windows. The brightness indicator got stuck.
    The mind**bleep** thing (or not) is that after reverting to the old graphics driver, everything was working ok and the brightness indicator got unstucked. 

    Same here in Lenovo G 470, I have tried three times installing and rollbacking, but the problem still remains same.
    Actually before updating graphic driver if you keep your brightness indicator at 'x' level, then after updation, it will always stuck at the 'x' level, although the brightness is changing.  
    But I think it is not a serious issue if everything else is working file, So you could keep your driver updated.

  • Code 43 error after updating Intel HD graphics video card

    Hello.
    My HP Pavilion G6 laptop consists of 2 graphics cards:   1- Intel HD Graphics Family
                                                                                                              2- Radeon HD 6470M
    I opened my device manager today, and i tried to update my Intel HD Graphics . Turns out there was an update for it, and after it was done, it displayed Intel HD Graphics 3000. That was after i rebooted my computer.
    After the reboot, my Intel card updated. However I re opened the device manager, and i see that the Radeon HD 6470M has an exclamation mark on it. I opened the properties and i see a message saying: Windows has stopped this device because it reported issues(Code 43) . This occured after i updated my Intel card.
     I fixed it with system restore. But can someone tell me why this happened? The HP Support Assistan said that there is no updates available, so the device manager should determine that the Intel card is up to date.
    Any help? Thanks.
    This question was solved.

    Don't know what driver you have installed but the latest version is 8.882.2.0 Rev. released Jan 14, 2015
    You may get this driver from here should you wish.
    http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/HP-Pavilion-g6-Notebook-PC-series/5145704/model/5170...
    Instead of using system restore you may right click the driver in Device Manager and Roll back the driver, makes it easier for you.

  • Update Intel HD Graphics Driver

    I am getting the following error:

    The usual drill is to check the information about the video card driver at the web site of the manufacturer of the video card.
    If the page information matches what you have, you might want to check the Intel web site and click on "automatically detect and update drivers and software" before the do it yourself tracking the HD Graphics 4600.
    http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/support/highlights/graphics/4cp-hd4600gfx
    I suspect your card driver is up to date, but best check. Then we will go into the action of deleting the BadDrivers.txt file for Premiere
    Elements 11.
    Local Disc C
    Program Data
    Adobe
    Premiere Elements
    11.0
    and in the 11.0 Folder is the BadDrivers.txt file that you delete. Be sure to have Folder Option Show Hidden Files, Folders, and Drives active so that you can see the whole path to the BadDrivers.txt file.
    We will be watching for your results.

  • Updating Intel HD Graphics 4600

    Dear HP rep,
    I've got a new HP Envy 17t-j100. I keep getting erros from multiple programs telling me my intel graphics driver is outdated. I've tried all of the HP driver updaters, as well as installing the driver from the intel website itsel to no avail. My coworker has a computer with identical specs, yet produces significantly better quality in both picture and framerate. This makes me believe it is this graphics driver. I know you will need more information than this, but I thought it might be a generic fix seeing as this is an out of the box problem. Thanks a lot for your time!

  • X1 Carbon 3rd.gen Chrome crashes on Youtube videos after Intel HD Graphics Driver 10.18.14.42 update

    Hi!
    Chrome crashes at Youtube videos after Intel HD Graphics Driver 10.18.14.4206 update on Lenovo X1 Carbon 3rd.gen. Since the driver update yesterday, laptop starts suddenly to overheat enormously and become super-noisy as soon as I try to open a Youtube video , no matter on Youtube page, or a external provider with embded youtube video. Chrome becomes unresponsible and has to be terminated. Laptop continues to use fan at extreme level for abot 20 more seconds and then cools down. IE plays youtube videos without problem and all the other videos from Facebook i.e. are playing. Tried original and also Beta version of Chrome, which doesn't help.
    Kind regards,Daniil

    Hey guys, T450s user here. I think I found an even better workaround for this issue without having to disable hardware acceleration and lower the performance of Chrome as a whole. After long trial and error I found the that driver-related issue is generally narrowed-down to HTML5 acceleration for video playback. By installing the following Chrome Extension I was able to revert YouTube back to the old Flash-based YouTube player and now even 4K playback is absolutely stellar on my T450s running the latest .4222 driver directly from Intel's site! https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/24964/Intel-Iris-Iris-Pro-and-HD-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-7-8-8-1-64-bit This is of course by no means a fix of any kind but I think it is the best workaround that we have to this date without having to sacrifice performance in Chrome as a whole. Try it out guys! https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/disable-youtube-html5-pla/enmofgaijnbjpblfljopnpdogpldapoc?utm_source=chrome-app-launcher-info-dialog

  • Satellite C660 - Intel HD Graphics update issue

    Hello,
    sorry for my English level, I'm French
    I have an issue without solution with my Satellite C660 (for the moment i hope!) I downloaded the software google sketchup 8, dedicated to the architecture drawing, but it doesnt work, I always have a bug message informing that it is necessary to update de drivers of the graphic card (According to google support it seems that OPENGL functions should be implemented in the drivers of my laptop)
    So I have downloaded the last available drivers for the configuration I have ( Intel HD graphics for pentium, windows 7 64 bits) ;
    the link ( french website, the one for Intel is not currently available, it is an .exe document)
    http://www.touslesdrivers.com/php/constructeurs/telechargement.php?v_code=37057&v_langue=fr
    I have tried to manually update de graphic card driver with the device manager menu (graphics card > update the drivers button> manual file.exe selection ), but at the end there is no update, I only have a very quick message informing that windows has determinated that the drivers are already updated.
    Actually there is no changes on the drivers (still the same date of the pilotes 28/07/2010 in the graphics card properties) and sketchup is still out of work
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance

    Hello
    Thank you for the reply, the type of the laptop is the C660 2RG with windows 7.
    Regarding the Intel HD graphics I've tried to download it directly in Intel website but the appropriate file (name Intel HD graphics for Intel Pentium and Celeron Processors with Intel HD Graphics) is not available, when you click on itn you have a displayed screen which propose to scan you laptop in order to determinate your needs
    But even with this function you have at the end a message telling that the configuration is specifically done by the laptop builder and no action could be taken.
    To run the application Sketchup i need, the driver must support the OpenGL components (usually available in the graphics cards driver, but it seems that Toshiba configuation has been done without it)
    Thanks

  • Update graphics card Intel HD Graphics 4000 512 MB

    i would like better garphics what sould i get or what ?? 2.9 GHz Intel Core i7 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 Intel HD Graphics 4000 512 MB  OS X 10.8.4 (12E55)thats what i have

    Go to the Apple Menu > About this Mac > More information for details.
    All newer CPU's have the Intel 4000 integrated graphics, however if you got the 15" then it also has dedicated graphics and it switches to either as the need arises.
    So you have both.
    What I suspect is Apple is going to eventually go all CPU graphics as soon as the processors get strong enough as it's less expensive to produce.
    Only Windows 3D gaming towers will soon have dedicated graphics the way things are going. The MacPro hasn't be updated in ages.

  • 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.
    View Solution.

    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.

  • Intel HD Graphics 4400 driver update problem.

    Hi!
    I have an Inspiron 3537 157813. I tried to update to the recommended driver (10.18.10.3316, A02), downloaded from DELL Support, for Intel HD Graphics 4400. But it shows an error message: "The driver being installed is not validated for this computer.  Please obtain the appropriate driver from the computer manufacturer."
    What could I do?

    sorry I do not have an answer, I do have the same problem with this graphics and noticed you had no reply so I thought if I add to it we might get a response from Dell or someone in the forum. I cannot update intel 4400 it is stuck with 10.18.10.3282  (26/08/2013) it won't update to the latest iris even though it goes through the full installation without error, it's the same with any previous update since the one installed, there is always issues with either intel 4400 or AMD 8870m dedicated, any update after 2013 and the AMD is recognised as R9 M270X which it clearly isn't , it doesn't matter if I download the graphics drivers from here or from Intel website itself it just doesn't update, updated chipset and bios and all other hardware and software updates ok Intel 4400 just stays at version 10.18.10.3282, any info would be appreciated ... cheers

  • Windows Update for Intel HD Graphics 3000 gives error 80070103

    I have a Windows 7 x64 machine that has an Intel HD Graphics card. Driver details:
    Intel Corporation
    1/29/2014
    9.17.10.3347
    This month's Windows Updates shows an optional update for me to update the Intel HD Graphics card. It says released by Intel January 2015 and released by Microsoft 3/12/2015. It looks like a more up to date driver but it will not install, instead I get that
    error 80070103.
    I googled the error and it seems to indicate that the version of my driver is more recent than the version Windows Update wants to give me. I don't think that's right though, based on the dates. In the Device Manager when I click on the display adapter and
    update driver it says the driver is already the most recent version. But it's not.
    Any ideas?

    Hi popchoc,
    You may follow the suggestions provided by S.Sengupta.
    Besides, regarding error 80070103, the below is the article talking about it:
    Windows Update error 80070103
    If you receive Windows Update error 80070103 while installing updates, you might be trying to install a driver that is already installed on your computer or a driver that might be less compatible than one you already have installed. To find more information
    or to get help, try these options:
    If you want to install the latest driver for a specific device, program, or game, try manually updating the driver instead of using Windows Update. For more information, see
    Update a driver for hardware that isn't working properly.
    Go to the
    Discussions in Windows Update website to see if someone else has found a solution or to request help from other Windows users.
    Go to  the
    Microsoft Community website to try to find more information about the error code.
    Hide the update so it's not offered again.
