Hi
Model Satellite L850-Y3110(PSKFWG-00F00C)
my laptop specs are i73630QM with 8gb DDR3 Ramand Raedon HD7670M 2Gb graphics in 64 bit Windows 10 pro.When i purchased it was installed with Win8.1 afterwards i manuallyt upgraded it to Win10.Everything was fine graphics is also ok.

From toshiba's website i found that my laptop is not up-gradable to Windows10. Anyway i have upgraded and there is no going back.
So my drivers are now auto updated with windows.

But to find drivers from my OEM's website i checked all toshiba's websites.But most of them does not recognize my model except this website.
In this site also i am not getting any drivers of Windows8.1.Only drivers of Windows 7 is available.

1)I would like to know where i can get these drivers.(Win 8.1)?

Please check with my model number before replying because i have spent many days for this.Again toshiba-india website provides only bios update drivers for my version.
2)So i would like to know whether other L850 model's drivers are compatible with my lap?

Now i will come to actual problem.
From intel's website i am aware that my laptop is having inbuilt graphics intel HD4000.
3)So where is it?
But nowhere in my laptop i can see this display adaptor.I looked into bios also to see whether it is disabled in bios.
And i found that there is no tab in bios regarding display/graphics.

I tried all latest drivers from intel for HD4000 and drivers from AMD for Redon7670M.
Everytime intel's setup driver installation fails.Add device method results in not working intel HD adaptor in control panel.

4)How can i enable(if present) the inbuilt graphics intel HD4000?

Why i want this?
WiDi/Miracast is supported with IntelHD4000(Projecting to another screen)
Mutiple displays are possible.
Quick sync can be enabled.Which helps fast encoding of videos
Switchable graphics can be enabled.

Some advised me to try modded bios .
but it may result in bricking your device.From these website i found that for my model someone has enabled inbuilt graphics options in bios using modded bios.As this file is no longer available for download i am here.

I am calling all guru's attention to solve my problem
 
Just let windows update search for the latest driver for Intel HD 4000.
Please note that HD 4000 is not officially supported for windows 10.(It is running in compatibility mode for windows 8.1 you can check this on Intel's website)
 


Thanks for replying
As i said i can't see intel HD4000 in my device manager.So in windows update it is not giving any drivers for this.
But after adding the device using "ADD HARDWARE" device.It is getting updates but fails to install the driver.
tells me to retry
 


Yeah i tried that ; no changes.If i get any bios update from Toshiba that may help.I think toshiba is not addressing this issue.Modded bios may help that may also brick my computer
 
It seems that toshiba did not release any driver for windows 8, 8.1 or 10 for your model.
Only windows 7 driver is available.

You can return to windows 7 here
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows7
Download according to your version e.g home premium, professional or ultimate
Make sure you have the product key and download all windows 7 drivers and put it in a USB drive.
It sucks really to see that a laptop that is just 2-3 years old does not support the latest OS.
We should blame the manufacturer for this.
 


ohhh its so bad .
i would like to use win10
