IE10 fails to install on HP laptop running Win 7 Ultimate 32 bit
Hi, I've tried various things to try to get IE10 to install:
Ran SFC /scannow - ok
Ran the SUR check - ok
Checked the prerequisites list - some say 'already installed' - some say 'not applicable to your system' (which means...? And yes, I did use the x86 versions.
Tried the troubleshooter.
Tried and failed to uninstall IE9.
Noted IE10 listed in Control Panel features. But IE9 is installed and runs.
Discovered reports that IE10 will not install on a range of laptops equipped with 'hybrid graphics cards'.
Internet Explorer 10 bug blamed on hybrid graphics | bit-tech.net
Internet Explorer 10 does not install on PCs with hybrid video cards
These require updated graphics drivers.
I updated my graphics driver, taking the risk that a generic laptop driver might or might not work.
IE10 still didn't install. (Could be the driver isn't yet updated for IE10..but how does one know?).
What happens?
IE10 fails from the standalone installer first:
'Downloading required updates' (which updates?) - progress bar to about 80%.
Then 'Internet Explorer did not finish installing'.
The log file shows an apparent failure to download sthg, but I can download this manually from the URL shown in the log file.
Details posted here: (I'm dal987) including the log file.

- where a number are experiencing the same thing.
Naturally it fails via Windows Update too. Unexpected error, 9c59 (which a number of people have experienced).
Ideas welcome.. thanks!
