It will say it's up to date because as far as it is concerned it is, yet my driver is newer than yours is 12/31/2014. Like I said because yours is being treated as a "generic" intel family card it's using it as a generic intel family card.  Mine is treated as exactly what it is, so it uses all of it's features...  Best guess because of your computer being made by HP, it is going for the generic version instead of the specific.  As I told you in the previous post you cannot automatically update, you must manually search for a driver for the video card you have.

 

Took me two seconds to search manually for these:

https://downloadcent...d=Intel HD 4400

 

Read very closely in the previous post and I told you that you'd have to manually search, not rely on windows to tell you if it's up to date or not.

Sorry I didn't read that part. I'll try it out right now. Okay I tried both of them and it said that the processor does not support it so maybe they might really might be up to date

I searched for your specific processor and GPU unit, so those drivers are what are supposed to work for it, my best guess since you have an HP pc, it requires HP-specific drivers.. That'd mean you're outta luck, the driver page I gave you is for the proper processor and GPU, if it is incompatible it is either because the hardware is a different typeset or because yours uses special drivers that arent supported by intel through their service online.. Means HP has to supply your drivers and ultimately that'd mean you get less frequent/less useful updates to them.

 

Even still I searched from your DX diag on HP's site since apparently thats what you'll have to work with, and I'd guess there is a newer driver there.. Idk your exact model of Envy, but I searched and found newer graphics drivers for some of the envys (2015)

Find your exact model and look there.. Either way HP uses custom drivers so you're getting stuck with whatever their drivers have with them, not exactly the original OEM from intel.

Okay thx. Just to let you know is that my HP is an HP ENVY x360 TOUCHSMART. It can turn to tent mode, tablet mode, notebook mode but the keyboard you can take it off. Core i5

 

 

Here I just found this:

That information was already in the Directx Diag regarding that it is an x360... you need to know the exact model which is usually found on the serial number to the machine, all makes of computers have several models within the same line-up because of different configurations, just because you have a Dell XPS 15 does not mean it's exactly the same as all other XPS 15's.   Find the exact model of your computer and search on the link I provided for your exact computer.

 

Ultimately though as I've already stated in your case, it makes use of HP's driver set, not intel's.  Because of this your drivers are more "generic" and do not get all the features/benefits of drivers for your specific card.  I am aware of what your video card is, but DX is not, Direct X is treating your video card as a Generic Intel Graphics chipset, and since that is what most games, including em4 use to process the graphical features of the game, there ya go. Your only hope is that somewhere in the HP updates on that site that I've provided the link to there is a graphical update for your specific specs that changes that, if it doesnt you're going to be stuck with the problems you have.  Yet another reason to love HP.

 

Secondly, your computer is one of those that tries to be an "all-in-one", being lightweight, having the ability to be a tablet and not an actual computer comes at a cost, welcome to the cost.... It's trying to do so many things that ultimately it isnt great at any one thing, instead mediocre at every single trick that it can do, compared to the devices out there that are purpose built to fill all the roles yours wants to claim it can do.  Chances are it won't be possible to fix your graphical problems because of how your machine was engineered by HP, I've already explained why that is several times now, and the only possible solution lies in updating manually through the manuf. website's pool of resources if they've got one that works for yours in particular, if not, because the way HP uses their own sourced intel drivers instead of the most current up-to-date Intel packages available, you get more generic drivers than someone who has just the Intel chipset they bought themselves or from another manuf. that just uses the default oem driver package.

So I go into my editor to find cars not in game but I wanted to know how to enable them. Any help is appreciated, Thanks-Corsair

Hello.
If you have white boxes at the car menu 360`C thing.
I may have the answer to that, i went in on my nvidia control panel and changed EM4 to high performance not global or intregret settings. 

I have intel I7-4810HQ with Nvidia GTX880M 4 GB if wondering. :)

 

Sorry for my maybe bad English. ;)

 

regards latex224.
