    Hi nirmal murugan,

    I'm Hendrix, here to help with your query on the Microsoft Q&A forums.

    Apologies for any inconvenience you are experiencing. I am happy to help you today.


    Here are the suggested troubleshooting steps for you to follow

    Step 1: Check Device Status

    • Open Device Manager (press Win + X → select Device Manager).
    • Expand Display adapters.
    • Right-click your display adapter → Properties → check for any error codes.
    • If you see a yellow triangle or error code, note it for reference.

    Step 2: Uninstall and Reinstall the Driver

    • In Device Manager, right-click your display adapter → Uninstall device.
    • Check Delete the driver software for this device → click Uninstall.
    • Restart your PC.
    • After reboot, go back to Device Manager → right-click the adapter → Update driver → Search automatically for drivers.

    Step 3: Get the Latest Driver from the Manufacturer

    Hi ,

    Well, the driver update is failing. It's quite possible that the driver is already installed and hasn't been identified yet, or that the driver version isn't for your device but is from the same processor line.

    You can ignore it, and over time, the driver will disappear, or you can try installing the version manually.

    What is your PC configuration or laptop model?

    Thanks

    Hi ,

    Here's the latest driver download.

    https://downloadmirror.intel.com/862321/gfx_win_101.6989.exe

    What might also be happening is that Windows Update is trying to install a version older than your current one. If it reports that the latest version is installed, it simply ignores it and disappears from the Windows Update list.

    Give feedback if the information was useful or not.

    Thanks
