Graphics Driver Update fails to install!

Hi,

This is slowly driving me insane.

VAIO Update tells me an update is available but the Update fails to install.

''Graphics Driver (Intel) 64bit - 8.15.10.2040

What is this?
This is an updated graphics driver.

What does it fix?
This update improves HDMI compatibility.

Manual installation steps

Exit all running programs.
Download this update and save it to your hard drive.
Double-click EP0000219982.exe to run it.
Wait until the installation is finished, and reboot the VAIO.''

Every time I start my Laptop, the update is waiting for me to shutdown/restart so it can install. It NEVER installs. I've turned off (unchecked) the notification but still it shows up. I managed to download the installer from an online Sony Site but even then it would not install.

Thanks,

Dan

Me too, today, on a VPCM13M1E.

Annoying as it is, I'd rather keep clicking close than try anything which requires setting a restore point.

My previous Sony laptop had a basic early-version graphics driver and Sony's software blocked all attempts to update it. Plenty of well intended suggestions failed.

The solution is for Sony to stop lumbering their reliable hardware with irritating bloatware.
