    How do I force update my Graphics Driver?


    I recently downloaded the latest version of the Intel HD Family Graphics but when I attempt to install it I get the following messages:

    On the .exe installation: 'Your computer does not meet the minimum requirements." and "Your system is not supported".

    On the .zip: 'Your driver is up to date.' However it's v8...

    I've read somewhere that you can 'force update it' or are there any better options?
    If not, how can I force update?

    Did you perhaps download a x64 version of the driver instead of x86, or vice versa?

    Please fill in your system specs

    System Info - See Your System Specs

    It may be a better option to download the driver form your motherboard site

    Go into Device Manager>Display Adapter>Update Driver.If you get a message telling you the drivers are uptodate,then leave alone.
