Dell Inspiron N7010, intel HD: need help sorting driver / HDCP / HDMI
gang I'm having trouble helping someone with this N7010 model Inspiron.
what chipset does the non-ATI model[s] have and can you guys direct me to the best Video driver to use for the model? having lots of issues getting Sync'd to HDTV or other external monitors over HDMI...
very stubborn about loading drivers from intel so the path, I think, is to completely eradicate the Dell driver stack, uninstall the device, use Win7 x64 Device Manager to install from a folder that we would pull from Intel's Zip wad.
but which? tried several and failed. part of the issue is nailing down exactly which chipset/proc/HD version is in play... the topline description of the driver packages at Intel Download center don't tell one whether its Generation 1 or 2 or now 3 necessarily so we only find out at the unpacking stage via the notes.
sheesh.... this shouldn't be this difficult
