I would like to upgrade to Vista SP1 using windows update, but it will not
provide me that option. From microsoft's documentation, I believe one issue
that windows update might have is that the Intel display driver file
igdkmd32.sys on my system is not at an acceptable version. I would like to
upgrade it, but am not sure how to go about it. I have looked in the Device
Manager but really am not sure what device needs to have its driver updated
to get a newer version of igdkmd32.sys. Thanks for any assistance.

You should update your chipset drivers. That driver is part of the
motherboard. Your best bet is to visit your computer manufacturer's website
to find the drivers.

Hi Gary,

You would get the updated driver from the device manufacturer, Intel in this
case.

Intel's download center:

Re: blue screen

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Solved for Dell Notebooks with Intel mobile graphics

Problems with IGDKMD32.sys / IGDKMD.sys / dxgkrnl.sys / dxmms1.sys BSOD etc etc

Go to the fresh installed Intel mobile driver settings, go to Intel power settings and
disable:

-All Power Feature settings.
-Set the slider to Custom Power Savings (Windows will take care of it)

That's All.

It solved all my IGDKMD32.sys BSOD problems.

Have a nice day

Bye
