Custom Driver : Intel HD Graphics & ATI Combo (Alpha) - by nIGHTmAYOR

according to laptop support page they do list an old downloadable driver for intel for windows 7 , weather this is related to there being several variants of that laptop or this laptop has switchable graphics i may just suggest you reset the bios and see if things change , if yes you may be able to apply step 2 , if not then apply step 4 and call it today , you are still better off being on the high performance gpu .

Out of curiosity can you take a snap shot from Settings > System > Display. Scroll down and click the “Graphics Settings” ?

 

Old Drivers

It is generally NOT important to replace old drivers.

Generally, you should only install a new driver if

1. You know that the new driver will fix a specific problem you're having with the old driver
   
   OR
   
2. You know that the new driver will add a feature or functionality that you need (or want) to have.

In order of preference, you should get drivers from

1. Your computer's manufacturer (especially important for laptops)
2. The manufacturer of the specific hardware item
3. Windows Update (as a last resort, if 1 and 2 aren't available)

And you should uninstall whatever program is causing those "messages."

 

Laptop driver/reformat question

This is excellent advice. Writing down the list of installed devices prior to re-formatting will save you a lot of heartache. With that list, you won't have to try to figure out exactly which wireless card or web cam driver you need since there will likely be several to choose from.
