Windows 10: Unable to Play Fortinet Game and Getting an Graphics Driver Error.

My hp pavilion p6610f does not have a pcie graphics card. It is using integrated graphics. It does have a pcie card slot and a option in the bios to use it. When playing fortnite I get this error.

Graphics Driver blocking game

Hi Kristine,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

I understand that you are unable to play the Fallout 4 on HP Stream. We will assist you to resolve the issue.

This issue may arise when the graphics card is not compatible to play the particular game.

Since this game has high end graphics and this game may not be compatible with the device. The minimum specs required to play this game is 8 GB of RAM and 2 GB of graphics card (NVIDIA GTX 550 Ti 2GB/AMD Radeon HD 7870 2GB or equivalent).

I would also suggest you to reply with the exact error message that you receive.

Hope the information helps. Let us know if you need further assistance. We will be happy to help.

Thank you.
