Hi I have an Intel G3258 but for some reason it isn't recognising the HD graphics, I'm currently running Vista and can't find a driver for Vista????

I assume the driver is my problem, any help please?
 
Solution
The CPU supports HD gfx but the mobo would have to have onboard video like this one.

Which says Integrated Graphics Processor- Intel® HD Graphics support on the ASUS site. Yours doesnt say that

So you cant use the Intel drivers because there is no onboard video on yours.

Whatever videocard you've installed you install whatever drivers for it

The Mobo has no onboard graphics, it's the Intel G3258 Haswell chip that has the onboard HD graphics, running from an H81M-P33 so it "should" be fine.

The Message about operating system Delroy was because I tried to install the Win7 drivers as recommended above but got that message.

I assume it must be Vista as there appears to be no relevant driver.
