Long story short, doing a favor to a friend I used TeamViewer to download and install update drivers for a Intel 965 Express chipset for the VGA, which was working fine after that, but I thought that going from drivers of 2006 to 2010 might give my friend better performance if not compatibility with some games she plays.
But after the reboot when the drivers finished installed, there was two "intel vga's" on the device manager with the yellow exclamation mark.
I tried everything imaginable (with the limitation of accessing remotely and that the user at the other end has zero knowledge of any of this) to make it work to no avail, absolutely nothing worked. I tried at least 6 different drivers, every other component still works perfectly.
I triple-checked via Aida64 the chipet and so forth, still nothing.
Even tried programs like "Slimdrivers" but that also failed.
The "Auto detect" from Intel's webpage also failed.
Formatting is not really an option since my friend can't pull it off and the "System Restore" failed to fix the problem aswell.
The end result is a extremely angry off friend with a laptop that has the compatibility-safemode drivers of Win XP.
I don't know what else to try, hence I humble request assistance.
