Product: HP EliteBook
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

Hello, I want to install Intel HD Graphics on my Win 7 64bit but when I go to device manager I see another one called "Standard VGA Graphics Adapter". I have to uninstall this one to install the intel one. If I uninstall that will my laptop work or no? and will I be able to install intel graphics?

Hi:

 

What model elitebook do you have?

 

Sounds to me like you have one that comes with the AMD/Intel switchable graphics.

 

That would mean the only graphics driver you should install would be the AMD graphics adapter listed on your specific model's support page.

 

The AMD driver installs both the Intel and AMDS GPUs.

 

You cannot and should not install the standalone Intel graphics adapter if your notebook has the AMD/Intel switchable graphics.
