Hi @Legacy21,

Welcome to the HP Support Forums! It is a great place to find the help you need, from other users, HP experts, and other support personnel. I understand you are having an issue with installing a video driver update. I will be glad to help you.


Please post the full product number of your computer. See the following, if you need help with that information.
