Acer Aspire E1-572G VGA Driver Unable to install

Hello. I have installed intel's driver detection tool and it informed me that I have a custom driver installed by the manufacturer. Acer site scanned my pc and found new driver VGA 10.18.15.4248, which i downloaded but upon installation tells me is the wrong driver for my pc. I have upgraded(haha) from win8.1 to 10, not sure if this is part of the problem. This driver was released 7/15. I ran windows driver updater and it tells me the driver I have, the only one btw, is current. I have tried to contact both Acer and Intel and get no answers. Any help would be great as I have had problems gaming online.

Hi,
Welcome to the forums, have you tried version 10.18.10,3355 which is 8.1 driver.

Thank you for your timely reply. I downloaded and got message "this device does not meet the minimum requirements..."
Any other ideas?

Have you tried uninstalling the driver from Device manager and let windows install the driver? If not give it a try, go to device manager, expand the Display adapter, right click HD4400,Properties, go to driver tab and click uninstall then reboot and let windows install the driver.

I have iObits ASC and i went into system information and guess what. I already have the latest driver installed. (10.18.15.4248). Why both Acer and Intel's apps were telling me that I needed to update my driver instead of telling me I was up to date is beyond me. Oddly enough Window's diagnostics told me that I did have the most current driver.... funny.

Well, thank you for all your help brummy. Cheers.

You are welcome, I'm glad that you got it sorted, I know that Acer don't pay too much attention to drivers, anyway, all the best.
