Community,
I'm in an odd place right now; there are two different drivers that I want to install on my computer, the HP 4-1030us, for Intel's HD 4000 Graphics: version 9.17.10.2867 from DriverMax and version 15.26.12.64.2761 from Intel's website.
It sounds cut and dry, but here's the thing: when I run the installer for version 15.26.12.64.2761, I get a warning message telling me that I'm about to downgrade my graphics drivers through this installation.
I've also found a post in Intel's forums comparing version 9.17.10.2867 to some earlier versions, though version 15.26.12.64.2761 was left out. Here's the thread: http://communities.intel.com/thread/29687
So what should I do? For once, it seems like it's not a bad idea to not go with the manufacturer's links.
BTW, here's the download page for Intel's "latest" drivers: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/SearchResult.aspx?lang=eng&ProductFamily=Graphics&ProductLine=Laptop+graphics+drivers&ProductProduct=3rd+Generation+Intel%C2%AE+Core%E2%84%A2+Processors+with+Intel%C2%AE+HD+Graphics+4000%2f2500&ProdId=3498&LineId=1101&FamilyId=39
Thanks,
A.J.
