i have a laptop that has two video drivers 1 from nvidia and the other from intel was wondering if its okey to install a driver from intel's website instead of the manufacturer driver. but everytime i install it from intels website it says “The driver being installed is not validated for this computer. Please obtain the appropriate driver from the computer manufacturer.”  i know people still can install it but would it be okey to use intels driver instead since its more updated then the manufacturer

What laptop do you have, Brand and model.

 

But in most cases the drivers provided by the manufacturer of the laptop is what you want to use.

Are you having an issue with the drivers you have now?
