Hi dlsayremn,

As has been pointed out throughout these newsgroups by several people,
myself included, you should not download and install any hardware updates
from Microsoft for anything but hardware manufactured by them. Instead,
obtain all hardware driver updates from the hardware manufacurer, in your
case Intel. From your post, I assume that you are talking about the graphics
driver, so I enclose links to the current drivers from Intel. Select 32-bit
or 64-bit as appropriate.
