I have been trying to update my video card on my laptop in order to play a
Big Fish Game, but it will fail to update. My card is: Mobile Intel(R) 945
GM Express Chipset Family. I don't know why it failed to update. Can't find
an answer anywhere. Anyone else have any suggestions? Thanks.

If you are trying to update drivers, are you sure you have the correct Vista
drivers for your graphics chip?
In general, you are much better off obtaining drivers directly, then
installing them manually, rather than relying on Windows Update for drivers.
Also, please quote any error message you receive during the failed update.

You also may want to read this:

It appears there may be issues with the latest Intel drivers.

Hi there,

If your hardware works fine: leave it be working fine and never take driver
updates from windows update unless they are driver(s) for a microsoft
device, if not go to the manufacturers website that is IF an update is
NEEDED because the hardware is not working well.

Best regards,
Michel Denie
