On the Intel site I'm struggling to find what the latest driver version is for certain chipsets. From a system info tool I have several PCs (laptops) with the following reported graphics:

  • Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family
  • Intel(R) Q35 Express Chipset Family
  • Intel(R) Q45/Q43 Express Chipset

All use the same driver igxprd32.dll at version 6.14.0010.4xxx (last 3 digits vary). All PCs are XP 32 bit.

I am not certain but I think these are all using the same basic chipset. More than likely the drivers were never updated so I wondered what version might be relevant.

Any help on tracking down the latest driver version (I just need the number, so I can see how out of date they are) and figuring out which chips these cards are would be great.

Is it possible to get a history of when different versions were released so I can see how old the current drivers are?

If they are laptops you can't be guaranteed the drivers from intel won't cause problems. It's always best to use the OEM (e.g. Dell, Lenove, HP) driver website/utility

  • I've read this at multiple hardware vendor sites and would agree with their "supported configurations" stance. In production, however, we've consolidated our drivers for more than 15 models, 5 vendors, using the hardware manufacturer's drivers instead of OEM, without issue. In particular, for wifi cards, this came at the suggestion of the AP vendor and site survey consultants. – jscott Jan 05 '11 at 13:43
