problem Intel® 915GM - angustaver - 20 December 20
hi, maybe someone can help me i have an old toshiba laptop with Mobile Intel® 915GM chipset it is a kind of XPDM driver
so it can't work with windows 8 and windows 10.
the graphics chipset just slows down the laptop, it can't be installed, and microsoft's standard display driver doesn't improve things.
I can't find an Intel® 915GM driver (WDDM)
does anyone have a solution?

Anyway goodluck. Its hard with old laptops. I have an old Acer and had to use Vista drivers to make it work in Win 7 and 8.
