UHD 630 recovery?

During the install of my Nvidia 1070 Ti GPU I followed advice to delete (not disable) UHD to prevent conflicts. Now I'm experiencing intermittent freezes/crashes (causes restarts) and want to recover the UHD 630 to identify if the GPU is causing the issue.


I looked under Display Adapters, tried Add Legacy Hardware but only get the option for Microsoft Basic Display Adapter (no acpi support) and it has the error "This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31)". I also checked Other devices for "unknown" but nothing. All that I have are the Nvidia 1070 Ti drivers installed, next to last update (new update reporting big bugs, so I'll wait on that).


When I go to Downloads for Intel® UHD Graphics 630 I can't run the tool to automatically update drivers (it just fails, no reason given, won't even download) and the only options for drivers is the Intel® Graphics - Windows® 10 DCH Drivers. This one makes me nervous: "Installing this Intel generic graphics driver will overwrite your computer manufacturer (OEM) customized driver. OEM drivers are handpicked and include customized features and solutions to platform-specific issues. The generic Intel driver provides users the latest and greatest feature enhancements and bug fixes that OEMs may not have customized yet to address platform-specific needs. Users can check for matching OEM versions at OEM websites." This seems to have a pretty solid fail rate for users.


Is there another way I can recover my UHD drivers without overwriting OEM?


I have an HP 880-109 Omen Desktop, an Intel i5-8400 cpu and am running Windows 10 64 bit, version 1909 (I have yet to update to 20H2).
