Intel GMA 3600 and GMA 3650 Drivers for Windows XP/Vista/7/8

Intel GMA3600 and GMA3650 is based on PowerVR SGX545, the difference is GMA3600 clocked at 400Mhz and GMA3650 at 600MHz compare to PowerVR which clocked at 200MHz. We can say that GMA3600 and GMA3650 is not really an Intel GPU but a rebadged PowerVR SGX545.

GMA3600 : Mostly found in the Intel Atom N2600 processor and Atom D2500 models.
GMA3650 : Mostly found in found in Atom N2800, Atom D2550, Atom D2500, Atom D2600 and D2700 Models.

Intel Originally claimed both GPUs support DirectX 10.1 but due to driver issues it only support DirectX 9.0c. This is not a big problem to discuss, because the GPUs itself cannot handle DirectX 10 games very well. Here is simple summary from Windows Experience Index:

Graphic: Desktop Performance for Windows Aero : 5.6
Gaming Graphic : 3D Business and Gaming Graphics : 3.2


Drivers For GMA 3600 and GMA 3650

I think it is important to list out all support available on one page, sadly I didn't found any solution for windows XP 64-bit. If you know or have information about it, do let me know in the comment section below.

Requirement:

• The software should be installed on system with at least 1GB of system memory (RAM). 
• Intel® Atom™ D2500, Intel® Atom™ D2550, Intel® Atom™ D2700
  Intel® Atom™ N2100, Intel® Atom™ N2600, and Intel® Atom™ N2800
• Intel Graphic Media Accelerator 3600 Series (GMA3600 and GMA3650) 

Windows XP Drivers 32-bit

I found a driver posted by someone on the internet which worked with XP. I believe he/she already modded the drivers so that it is compatible with GMA3600. (more info below)

Intel Graphic Media Accelerator for windows XP 32-bit
Version 1.15.0.3278, 2.05MB
Download (Update on march 2021)

*You need to register (free) to download the files. I do not upload the file, just found it on the internet. If you dound other download link, share it with others.

You must Install it Manually : (example with picture here)
1. Extract the driver file, remember the extraction folder location. For this tutorial let just extract it to desktop. (you will need winrar or 7zip software to extract it)
2. Open device manager by click start - run - and type devmgmt.msc
3. Right lick on the IGMA 3600 (with yellow mark) and select update driver.
4. Select " no, not this time"and select "advance, install from a list of specific location".
5. Select don;t search I will choose the driver to install.
6. Click Have disk (also uncheck "show compatible hardware if that option available").
7. Click Browse and Point to the driver we extract earlier on the desktop.
8. Select the iegd.inf or iegd, OK and proceed with on screen installation.
9. Reboot after installation finish.

If you know about moded thingy then it is not hard to understand. Base on the driver version, it is originally  for Atom™ N2000/D2000 Series Embedded Media and Graphics Driver. When I look at the inf file changes was made in several part and worth to point out here is at the Localizable Strings section.

Windows 8 32-bit :
Since Intel does not plan to provide updates for this GPU anymore. We can only use Windows 7 drivers which show slight improvement over standard VGA graphic driver which automatically installed by Windows 8.
If resulting in error you need to troubleshoot compatibility (right click on the driver and select troubleshoot compatibility) and set to windows 7.


Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 64-bit Drivers:

---

Currently Intel and your notebook manufacture site doesn't provide any support for 64-bit. The only drivers that most people use is:

GFX_Vista_Win7_64_8.15.8.1050_Beta5.exe

You can google it for download link because currently the file hosted on the original server no longer exist.

if you google GFX_Vista_Win7_64_8.15.8.1050 it is still available on intel website, I cannot provide the link because Intel always changes their URL.


Just install directly and reboot.

How to enable Metro UI  in Windows 8/8.1

---

Either you manage to install Windows 7 drivers in Windows 8, or stay with the standard Graphic adapter you can enable the Metro UI by editing the Registry Value. This tutorial seems quite advance for non tech-savvy but believe me it is easy, here is the tutorial with pictures : http://laptop-driver.blogspot.com/2014/04/how-to-enable-metro-ui-in-windows-8-and.html

(Disclaimer :
This tutorial is for educational purpose only, I don not own the files and it is belong to the respected owner, permission to use any of the the files is your own responsibility.)

Older Intel Graphic Installation (XPDM) For Windows 7

There are 2 types of Intel graphics for Windows 7 which is WDDM and XPDM. WDDM drivers or Windows Display Driver Model display 3D graphical user experience and support aero. On the other hand Windows XP Driver Model (XPDM) only delivers interface that resembles Windows XP and do not support aero feature with other limited functionality. The XPDM drivers available for the following older Intel Graphics:

Mobile Intel® 915GM/GMS, 910GML Express Chipset Family
Intel® 82915G/82910GL Express Chipset Family
Intel® 82865G Graphics Controller
Intel® 82852/82855 Graphics Controller
Intel® 82845G Graphics Controller
Intel® 82815 Graphics Controller Intel® 82810 Graphics Controller

The graphics above is categorize as  XPDM while WDDM only available from Intel 945 Express Chipset Family and Above.

Does XPDM Drivers Work With Windows 7?
It will not work, by default Windows 7 will only install Standard VGA drivers which provide basic display. The most common problem is user will not be able to get the maximum resolution and poor gaming performance.

Installing Older Intel Graphic In Windows 7.
There are several Method to install older graphic driver in windows 7. There are no one click setup method. You are require to perform several steps to install it. There are several method you can use to install it. I already wrote the instructions with picture for certain graphic drivers, you can also use the same method and drivers to install you older Intel graphic in Windows 7:

Mobile Intel® 915GM/GMS, 910GML : Tutorial Link
Intel® 82852/82855 Graphics Controller : Tutorial Link
Intel® 82845G Graphics Controller : Tutorial Link

There will be not further development/support for this model which means Intel will not continue to develop new drivers for this graphics either for XPDM or WDDM.

Intel 82830M Graphics Drivers Installation For Windows 7

There is no driver for Windows 7 released by Intel or any other 3rd party website. So, in this post I will show how to install Intel(R) 82830M driver in Windows 7.

Before start:
- If you already have any Intel Graphic extreme system tray installed,  uninstall it first.
- If you success install the driver using the method I describe below, but the driver uninstall itself after restart, disable your internet connection during the whole installation process. 
- the driver in this tutorial is from Fujitsu, you are responsible to comply with the T&C if you are using this driver for other model. The best way is to download the driver released by Intel on any website that distribute the driver. Since the download link changes, I'm unable to provide one from Intel, I only have the link from Fujitsu and Nec Versa website.

1. Download Intel driver version 6.14.10.3741, you can Google it or use the driver below:

Intel 830M/845 Graphic Drivers
File Name :ST4110,ST4120,ST4121_VIDEO_INTEL_V6.14.10.3741_XP.exe
Version 6.14.10.3741
File Size : 5MB
Description: This driver design for Intel 82830M and 82845.
Download Link From Fujitsu:Download (exe)
Download Link From Nec Versa : Download (zip)

The driver already tested on one of the Dell Machine and worked

2. Extract the driver we downloaded earlier. For this tutorial I make folder in desktop and name it as Intel and extract the driver in that folder. If you use the driver from Fujitsu, you need Winrar software to extract the driver file. Remember the path of the extracted driver folder, we will need it later.

3. Open device manager by click start and type DEVMGMT.MSC and press enter.

2. Look for Video Controller Marked with yellow, right click on it and select update driver:

3. Select Browse my computer for Driver software.

4. Click Browse and Point to the driver folder we extracted earlier.

---

 It is important to select the right folder so it will found the driver inf file.
Note that the driver inf  file (file that required for driver installation) is in Win2000 folder, so it is better to browse to that folder. In this example I extracted the driver file on a folder on desktop so the location will be: c:\User\YouComputerName\Desktop\Inte\ST4110,St4120.ST4121_VIDEO_INTEL_V6.14.10.3741-XP
(look at the picture below).

---

5. After clicking next, the installation will begin and will take few minutes to finish. Don't worry if it take too long, it is normal. After installation finish reboot your system. If it prompt to reboot, please do so.

6. After reboot, you wait until you see a pop up message "new hardware found" or "Installing device software" or similar, just click on it.

7. Wait until the round circle gone (installation finish). reboot once again. (Force reboot if windows prompt something)

8. Wait until  you see a pop-up like in step 6 and click on it.

9. Another installation will take place. Reboot once again util installation finish and reboot once again. (at first it will only show "Intel(R) 82830M Graphic Controller, but latr you will see it will install all driver component needed as you see in the picture below). One driver will not installed (see picture) but ignore it.

Now your graphic should be listed on device manager as Intel(R) 82830M Graphics Controller and this means you are successfully installed the graphic drivers.

Additional Notes:
1. What to do if the driver uninstall itself after reboot?
-Turn off Internet, try different driver version or try with your original windows XP Driver.

2. Is there any other method to install this driver, yes, there are different method availble for example you cn read it here:
http://laptop-driver.blogspot.com/2014/08/intel-82865g82845g-windows-7-drivers.html

Do let me know the results along with your notebook model, your feedback could help others.

 My recommendation base on priority:

a. Latest windows 7 driver from Intel.
Download Link -Intel Mobile 4 series
Download Link - Intel HD Graphics

b. Your original windows 7 drivers. (Download your laptop from manufacture site.)

c. Test with driver version i listed on driver version.

d. Try to use different version you can get.

3. Right click and select properties - compatibility - run this program in compatibility mode for "windows 7" , the tick run this program as administrator. Apply then OK.

4. After that run the setup to install and do not reboot yet, first change windows updates setting to "Check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them". Reboot after Installation.

If failed, you may try with different version or move on by installing the mod driver below.

ATI Mobility Radeon X1350 Windows 7 Drivers

INSTALLING USING WINDOWS UPDATE.
Base on my experience installing windows 7 on Acer Aspire 4920G which use ATI Radeon X1350. Windows automatically install the drivers along windows 7 installation. After check for windows updates, windows also have a new updates for the cards and it is more stable.

INSTALLING USING ATI MOBILITY MODDER.
You can also use ati mobility modder which is available at http://www.hardwareheaven.com/modtool.php .  I have a very long history with this site and it is one of the best site to get drivers or updates which is not available neither on manufacture nor official support site.

TESTING DRIVERS.
For performance, I myself love to test with different driver version. You can try Original vista drivers for example for HP 531use sp40783.exe.
To install you need to extract the driver and set the setup compatibility to windows vista. You can also install manually using device manager. I have a good result installing vista drivers for V3000 model compare using the latest drivers form nvidia.

ATI Radeon HD5470 HD5450 Windows 7 Driver

There are issues for this driver especially for certain model such as HP G62 and Compaq presario CQ32.

Most people will get the latest catalyst driver instead of using the driver provided by the laptop/computer manufacture.

Latest Catalyst (on feb 2012) : 12.12 win 7/vista 32 and 64-bit : Download

Generally here is the most stable catalyst driver version i found so far:

Ati catalyst version 11.2
ATI Catalyst Version 10.12


1. Compaq/HP Model:
The driver provided by compaq/HP is sp50231.exe
But direct installation normally don;t give a max resolution (case for HP G62) so you need to upgrade the BIOS version to  F28-F29, install Intel HD 3000 (swicthable graphic) and turn off power play in CCC. ( not recommended to use this driver )

2. Acer Model
VGA_AMD_8.741.1.5000_W7x86W7x64_A.zip : Download
Support : Radeon HD 5470  Radeon HD 6370M
This driver only applicable for acer (4738G etc) and Acer didn't allow to use with non-acer product.
