video card update in Vista

September 9, 2007

I have been trying to update my video card on my laptop in order to play a

Big Fish Game, but it will fail to update. My card is: Mobile Intel® 945

GM Express Chipset Family. I don't know why it failed to update. Can't find

an answer anywhere. Anyone else have any suggestions? Thanks.

If you are trying to update drivers, are you sure you have the correct Vista

drivers for your graphics chip?

In general, you are much better off obtaining drivers directly, then

installing them manually, rather than relying on Windows Update for drivers.

Also, please quote any error message you receive during the failed update.

It appears there may be issues with the latest Intel drivers.

Hi there,

If your hardware works fine: leave it be working fine and never take driver

updates from windows update unless they are driver(s) for a microsoft

device, if not go to the manufacturers website that is IF an update is

NEEDED because the hardware is not working well.

Best regards,
