Is Intel Graphic Driver Update OK to use or stick with only OEM Driver?

[radar2000]

I have a notification that keeps popping up from Intel stating that there is a software update for Intel® Graphics - Windows® 10 DCH Drivers. But it has a warning that states...

Installing this Intel generic graphics driver will overwrite any customized driver from your Computer Manufacturer (OEM).

OEM drivers are handpicked, customized, and validated to resolve platform-specific issues, enable features and enhancements, and improve system stability. Intel’s generic graphics drivers are intended for testing, and we recommend using drivers from Hewlett-Packard (HP). Report any issues found with this driver to Intel.

I'm looking for this communities comments on whether to upgrade to this Intel graphics driver or to just stick with the current 22.20.16.4836 version that I'm using. Thoughts/recommendations would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi:

If your notebook only has the intel graphics adapter, then it would be OK to use the driver from Intel.

I wrote a knowledge base article at the link below for how to manually update the graphics driver to the latest version.

I think that Intel has just changed the driver so that you can run the exe file and you won't get any more notices that you can only use the driver from the PC manufacturer.
