Cannot launch CS:GO

[hyperanx]

I have tried multiple forums, and tried multiple solutions but I think it's Window's problem.

CS was working completely fine on computer. After a new windows update yesterday which took about 30 minutes, I can't play CS anymore. The update updated my GUI (made it a bit better looking, apart from that, no changes). The problem is that when I press 'play' CS, the application launches (I can see it in the task manager) and the screen blacks out for about a second. Then nothing happens. The application is also not visible on the task bar.

Some things that might be helpful:
My CPU is 64 bit.
I disabled firewall.
I already uninstalled the windows update (it did not change my GUI back).
I have done 2 clean re-installs of both Steam and CS.

• Update for Windows 10 Version 1607 for x64-based Systems (KB3211320) // This was the update

Thank you for your time, this is extremely urgent.
If you need any screenshots, I'm happy to provide.

Go to Update and Security-->Recovery and roll back to previous build--to good old 1511.

The bonus is this also removes the advertising on the lock screen in 1607

What is the full processor model?

 

[u2desire420]

If it is a Skylake or better processor than you can use the driver available at Guru3D http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/intel-hd-graphics-driver-download-4590.html I would 1st use the Display driver uninstaller from http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html to uninstall the old drivers.

That doesn't tell me what Generation the processor is or anything for that matter. Download CPU-Z http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/cpu-z.html and run it and it will say what the processor is.

OK the driver you need is available here http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/graphics-drivers/graphics-for-4th-generation-intel-processors/intel-hd-graphics-4400.html you will want the 2nd one in the list for Windows 10 64bit. Hopefully that will solve your problem.

What I think happened is Windows downloaded a generic driver from Windows Update and those drivers are crap.

That is odd because your processor is i5-4310u which is definitely listed under "This download is valid for the product(s) listed below." What is the make and model of your computer? Should say on a sticker on the bottom of laptop. I assume it is a laptop since the processor is a mobile processor. Check manufacturers support page for the model of your laptop and download the display driver from them.

Bring up Device Manager by doing the following "Press Windows+X to open the menu, and choose Device Manager on it." and check under display adapters and make sure your GPU is definitely the Intel® HD Graphics 4400.

Thanks for the help so far! I will try to reinstall the driver tommorow

You can try rolling back the driver under Device Manager the screen shot you uploaded is where you do this just select the Driver tab and choose Roll Back Driver.
Hopefully in the mean time someone else has a solution to why the Intel installer won't allow you to install the drivers you downloaded. You could try Intel's Driver update utility from http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/detect.html?iid=dc_iduu
