Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 950

Question

I have a Dimension E510 with an Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 950 video card.  I need to download the driver for this video card.  When I go to the download site for my system, there are 7 different drivers listed and none mention the Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 950!  How do I find the correct driver?

Dale Nihiser · Answer

its not a video card at all. Video in integrated onto the motherboard.

Your driver is here:

**edit** newer release here:

Dale,   Thanks!    Dell told me to use R103466.exe.  You recommended R126542.exe.  How do I determine which is correct for my Dell DM051 (Dimension E510)?  The one you recommeded is newer.  I am just trying to figure out how I would go about finding the correct driver in the future.    Thanks again! Sky Dancer

The only real reason I can see is your bios version must be A01 or less. The link I provided you in my previous post recommends bios version A05.

Version A07 was released in Jan 2007:

**Disclaimer** If you're not confident enough to update your bios, then don't.

Good Luck

Dale

Dale,   I first loaded the one that Dell suggested.  The I loaded the newer on that you recommended.  They both seem to work OK, so I am currently using the new one you suggested.    Thanks!!

Dale,   I found an executable file in my backup in a Dell folder called 'Driver Reset.exe'  Is this a file I could have used to load all of the drivers I needed after my re-formatting?    Good to know for future problems!   Sky Dancer
