Can't find name of the Intel ICD OpenGl driver

I am routinely unable to launch an application (Gephi 0.9.1 - Gephi - The Open Graph Viz Platform) on my new ASUS K501U i7-6500 laptop, with Intel 520 and NVIDIA GTX960M video adapters. I have the most recent adapters of each of the display adapters and have run all Windows
10 updates (as of 13APR2017). I have checked Intel's website, but they are redirecting me to Windows, as this is assessed to be an OS issue. Everytime I launch, I get the error: "Can't find name of the Intel ICD OpenGl driver"... I have to open the task manager
to kill the entire process.

I have tried nearly everything to resolve the issue, but no avail. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

 

[ICD Driver] Opengl team email answering "Denied"

Hi,

I'm currently working on a ICD driver for Windows on QEMU. Like described in the documentation, to get an access to the ICD dek kit, we must send an email to the openGL dev team.

The email is : *** Email address is removed for privacy ***

Email is public and here:

https://docs.microsoft.com/fr-fr/wi...pport-to-the-opengl-installable-client-driver

on the line : "contact the L: OpenGL Issues team."

Unfortunately, this email reply with a beautiful "Denied" (550)

Anyway, is there a way to contact this team ? Get some informations about the ICD dev kit ?

Cheers !

Update OpenGL Driver Manually

Due to the fact that OpenGL driver is embedded with the Intel graphics card, the time you feel like finding the driver on your own, you just need to get the latest graphics driver.

Here for different display card, be it AMD, Intel, and NVIDIA card, you are supposed to their individual official site.

Here take the example of updating Intel ICD OpenGL driver as an example. Of course, it is accessible to download AMD OpenGL or NVIDIA OpenGL driver on AMD or NVIDIA site.

Navigate to Intel official site.

https://downloadcenter.intel.com/

On Intel site, click Graphics driver.

Choose your Intel model and then Filter by Drivers, Windows 10 64 bit. You need to enter your Windows type, like Windows 10 32-bit,

Follow the on-screen instructions to finish installing the Intel HD graphics driver.

On the basis of that, you will have also updated Intel ICD OpenGL driver for Windows 10.

Update OpenGL Driver in Device Manager

Otherwise, it makes sense to get the OpenGL driver from the graphics driver within Windows 10. That is to say, you can attempt to let Windows device manager find the driver you need.

Open Device Manager.

Expand Display adapters and then right click the graphics driver to Update driver. Here your display card may be AMD, Intel, or NVIDIA or any other ones with different brands

Try to Search automatically for the updated driver software.

If possible, the Device Manager will locate the latest graphics driver for you. You can install it on Windows 10 in the hope that the OpenGL driver can be updated.
