The Driver will install now and bypass the validated computer error.

In my case it was in a folder called Graphics.Ĩ. Now browse to the “.inf” file in the driver you just unzipped. Click “Browse my computer for driver software” then click “Let me pick from a list of available drivers on my computer”.ħ. Then I opened up device manager and found my Intel video device.ģ. First I downloaded the zip version of the driver from Intel and unzipped it into a folder.Ģ. I ended up forcing the install of the official driver and that fixed all my problems with OpenGL and the Display Link dock. So I assume this problem and fix applies to all of them but I may be wrong. Other companies like StarTech also make docks with the DisplayLink internals and they all seem to use the same drivers.

How to Fix the DisplayLink Dockīefore we start, let it be noted that I am using a Dell DisplayLink dock. It would seem that HP was trying to lock me out of using official Intel drivers? But I refused to give up. Please obtain the appropriate driver from the computer manufacturer.” “The driver being installed is not validated for this computer. I downloaded the driver and attempted to install. So I went to the Intel website and noticed there was a new driver for this month that HP and Windows did not have. So I ran it on another computer to make sure I was not crazy and it worked fine.Īfter holding my face in my hands for a while I started looking around and noticed the driver I got from the HP website was older than the one Windows updates installed. My program was crashing on the line of code that starts up OpenGL “wglCreateContext()”. I could not even catch the crash with a try/catch block in C++. I also went to the DisplayLink website and updated the dock driver. So, I updated all my drivers and made sure Windows was all the way up to date. Some blamed the Nvidia driver and some blamed the Intel driver. Some said it was a Windows 10 update that broke it. I looked around and found all kinds of theories. I ran into this before with my old laptop and the trick was to just keep the laptop lid open and then for whatever reason OpenGL would work on the monitors connected to the dock.īut with this new laptop that was not working. It was kind of weird because the program would run and report it was using OpenGL 4, but nothing would show on the screen. I have a new HP laptop and I have been trying to do some OpenGL programming on it, but I keep running into a problem were my programs will not start up OpenGL when my laptop is docked with a DisplayLink dock.
