If “extra quality” means latest Windows 10 version, you’re out of luck without switching to the Microsoft Basic Adapter.

Would you like a step-by-step guide to force-install the last Intel driver on Windows 10?

Here’s a long-feature style breakdown to help you get the right driver and understand your options.


The i3-380M lacks hardware decoding for H.265 (HEVC) or VP9 (YouTube). To get extra quality streaming without overheating your CPU:

This reduces stutter in 1080p video playback dramatically.

If Windows Update fails or you want to force the installation of the specific Intel driver, this is the method most technicians use.
