Installing drivers Lenovo no? Yoga 2 Pro - video drivers for DX 11 games

So, I use a Yoga 2 Pro. I love this laptop / Tablet what you want to call it, but the biggest problem I always seem to have is related to video games. I realize this isn't a game system, but it would be nice to play some.

The game I'm most interested in playing is civilaztion 5. CIV 5 joined in the tactile controls game great and works great as a game of Tablet. However, because screen super high resolution of the Yoga 2 Pro, I am unable to run the game in full resolution. The best compromise is 1600 x 900. The issue is that launch the game with the forces of active controls touch game live x 11 mode. Direct X 11 mode, running at a resolution not standard messes with scaling of display. So I find myself with a small box centered in the middle of the screen surrounded by black bars, instead of the lowest resolution, the scale of the display.

There is a work around, which is to introduce the resolution 1920 x 1080 via the Panel of control intel everything first before running the game, but it is a pain.

This seems to be a driver problem, but lenovo does not seem to care never update of drivers as the latest drivers that seem to all come from October or November. I tried to install the intel drivers directly from Intel (which should work fine), but lenovo clearly has some block put in place to prevent the installation of unauthorized drivers.

So if anyone knows a solution to my problem or a way to install these drivers, that would be great, thanks!

Go to Device Manager, display driver and from there uninstall the driver currently installed. You will then be able to install the new Intel display driver. :-)

May need to restart before and after...

Not sure if the latest drivers will solve the problem you have.

It is not a problem to switch to a different resolution, it of just a few clicks, but to change the scale display so requires you to close the session, which is a chore. If the game does not need to change the display scale you use a resolution of 3200 x 1800 so you can just temporarily change resolution each time you play the game...

  • How do I install drivers for printers supplΘmentaires

    I would like to know how to install drivers for printers supplΘmentaires 32 bit for my HP Deskjet F380 all-in-one connected to my windows 7 pro 64-bit desktop computer so that I can print from a laptop which is a 32-bit Ubuntu system. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Curt

    I got the answer to my own question. You don't have to install additional drivers for your windows 7 computer pro to be able to print to it from an Ubuntu machine. All you have to do is on the windows computer to which the printer is connected, is to go into devices and printers. Then right clock on the printer you want to print from the machine Ubuntu and left click on Preferences of printer in the pop-. Can find the ports the printer tab and left click, then search for bidirectional printing and clear the check box next to it and keep. Then, you should be able to print from e machine Ubuntu to the printer. At least I am able to. I hope it works for you.

  • How to install drivers for Mac under vmware?

    Hello the VMWare community! I would like to ask, if there is a way I can use my mac on Vmware drivers? My CPU is good in Vmware, but I would use my AMD Radeon rather than Vmware SVGA graphics. Is anyway to do this? I heard that you can use your Mac OS x disk to install the drivers in Vmware.

    You can not install the drivers for the host GPU in the guest operating system as the guest operating system does not directly see it.  So if the operating system does not see the device then install drivers for a device in the operating system can't see would be a waste of time and in some cases the drivers wouldn't install when even if it can detect the device!  So, we're stuck with the supplied VMware graphics adapter.  Now other things like the iSight camera that a different story and you can use the iSight Boot Camp driver in a Virtual Machine.

  • Cannot install drivers for HD Audio win 7 64 Pro Windows default for generic HD driver

    Hi all

    I pray that someone can enlighten me as to how to install the correct audio drivers HD in Win 7 Pro instead of generics.

    The motherboard is an Asus Rampage Extreme and the sound card is a PCIe that accompanies the Board of Directors. The manual calls what it a 'card SupremeFX X - Fi' my system is a dual boot with XP on another partition, the sound works fine, XP, with all the extras, I need.

    If I go to Device Manager and remove the existing driver, and then when I try to install the ones I want, I get a message saying ' cannot find a device supported on this machine. "and the installation program quits.

    Of course when I reboot 7 wants to reinstall what he thinks is right. I'm at square one!

    Once the proper drivers are installed, I can then install the Creative Sound Launcher located in the Tools menu. It gives me a graphic equalizer, a Crystallizer and many other controls for the sound card. I can install these items listed, but none of them will any work without the correct driver.
    They have simply open and refuse to work saying "Device supported by this application is not found on this computer."

    I need a way to install the Asus / drivers Creative instead of the 7 seems to think are "correct."

    Nowhere for the MB manual called the card its a 'creative', but it is quite possible that the software package that comes with it has creative name on it in the world.

    A search of the site Creative shows no drivers for a card with the name that I mentioned above.

    Asus forum do not know more so here!

    Thank you all in advance!

    The dual boot is your problem. Why do you always need XP?

    And you're going to have things the wrong way!

    You need specific drivers XP on this partition and specific drivers W7 on that partition.
    See you soon,.
    Jerry

    HI Jerry,

    Thanks for the reply. I don't know how I mislead you with my ad. I said that the sound is FINE under XP it's W7 who "was" that is rampant in me.

    I eventually found the drivers from the Asus site and program utility that controls the different things like the EQ and others. Note that some of them were not in the right directory and I would have never thought to look under the heading where they have resided!

    I use XP because I have so much software that doesn't work on 7. I am also on disability and can't afford to start replacing and material. At the moment the dual boot is a solution very, I see using a virtual machine in W7.

    Problem solved, I had needed was someone to Asus who has understood my dilemma.

    See you soon

  • I'm building a Windows98SE virtual machine on a host OS to Windows XP Home using Virtual PC SP1 (with the fix for XP home). Do I need to install drivers for the emulated hardware?

    As I understand it, all hardware is emulated (that is, it 'sees' that which is emulated, not the physical hardware in my computer: sound card, motherboard, etc.), correct?  Here's my question: do I need to install the motherboard drivers, video drivers, or the audio drivers for the emulated stuff.  In other words, even if I have an Athlon XP 3000 + processor on an ASUS motherboard, do I need to install the drivers from the motherboard with the chipset emulated by Virtual PC?

    You have no need track down all the drivers.  They are installed automatically.

    You should be happy that they're fail because generally, it is never a good idea to accept installation hardware (audio, video, network), drivers offered by Windows Update.

    If you look on this error page:

    https://support.Microsoft.com/en-us/help/10164/i-got-an-error-code-from-Windows-Update

    It is said:

    If you receive Windows Update error 0 x 80070103 while installing updates, you might be trying to install a driver is already installed on your computer or a driver that might be less compatible that you have already installed.

    Microsoft does not know what are the best drivers for your system and you should only get updated hardware driver of your WWW site of system manufacturers and only when you know that the update may solve a particular problem.

    There are many topics where people blindly install all the updates that are available from MS, then the find something on their system which suddenly ceased to behave (audio, video, network).

    If you see these hardware driver update offered by Windows Update, that is better right click and hide them so never see again you them.

    You can read this topic where I described how to keep MS you offer hardware driver updates in the first place:

  • Satellite A500-13F: can I install drivers for ATI page?

    Hello

    I have the Satellite A500-13F with graphics ATI Radeon HD 4650.
    Can I install drivers from ATI downloaded from their site? I ask because theres a note on downloading the page saying as follows:

    Following books are not supported in this version: *.
    *...*
    * Computers laptop Toshiba (Please check with your mobile phone OEM for support of the drivers for these books) *.
    ...

    What does that mean? Do I have to install these drivers, will they work?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Still, you must download the drivers from the Toshiba driver page because they are pre-tested. Talk to the graphics driver, it is modified and a protection against overheating. So, I'm not advice you to use the ATI drivers. You can use them, but at your own risk.
