try this link to identify the required driver. www.Intel.com/Drivers
Your Laptop model can be found on the HP support UK site. I'm assuming your running Windows Seven 32 bit if not select the OS Win 7 64bit.
Software & Driver Downloads HP G70-120EM Notebook PC - HP technical support (United Kingdom - English)
Under Graphics it lists either the Nvidia Geforce 9200M GE driver or the Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family Graphics. Which others have already provided for you while I was uploading the Nvidia 9200M GE driver.
If the intel 4 Series chipset Graphics driver isn't the one your laptop has, you might want to try the Nvidia driver.
So here is the Nvidia 9200M GE driver. Dated 09/25/2009 Version 8.15.11.8644A 176.65mb
I have uploaded the driver form the site to RapidShare, Scanned it with MSE (no virus found) and you can download it and save it to your desktop by clicking on the link I've provided.
You will have to choose the Free download and wait for the timer to run down before you will be able to download the file. Here's the link to the driver.

You should now have the driver for your graphics be it the Intel 4 series or the Nvidia.
Just for future issues, when you first register you should always take the time to include all your system specs as well as fill in your location as your model was found on the HP UK site. This will only make it easier for members to find and help you resolve your problem.
Also please post back and let us know if your problem is now resolved and which driver you used so it can help out others that may be looking for answers for the same problem.
Thanks. Fabe
If it is an nVidia card then it's more than likely the 9200M GS as that's their notebook series

Wasn't knocking ya mate, funnily enough I was going by the nVidia site...Hmmm this could get messy (several different downloads)
I hear ya no offence taken.
If i'm wrong I'm wrong were all just trying to help.
And yes it could get very messy. Fabe
This is something I think I need clarity on. I see it happen a lot on here, which leads to my own confusion. When a person is shopping for a laptop, one of the many considerations is the video. Why? Because if you don't need a dedicated graphics card (based on your intended use), you pick one with onboard video to save money and battery life. I'd easily put that decision in the top five questions a person answers when choosing a laptop. Given this, it confuses me why someone wouldn't know if they had the Nvidia (more expensive) or Intel (cheaper) video in the laptop.
I'm asking this honestly, and not to bash anyone, but are people just picking computers off the shelf based on price, and not looking into the specs?
I think the AVERAGE computer user just selects a computer based on their needs and price point sensitivity. I do not think they look to see what the subsystems are. If it turns on and works for them it is good enough. Later on if they have a problem that is when the issue of what is in the laptop occurs. IMHO anyway
