Getting error 0x800F0244 during Windows Update when it wants to update my Intel HD Graphics Driver on my computer which runs an NVidia driver for my discreet GTX 750 card. I have updated the driver from a driver found on the Intel website, here However, WU still wants to install this driver after checking for updates. Error 0x800F0244 is listed on Microsoft Website as - SPAPI_E_SIGNATURE_OSATTRIBUTE_MISMATCH <br>- 0x800F0244 The software was tested for compliance with Windows Logo requirements on a different version of Windows, and may not be compatible with this version. I have already cleared the SoftwareDistribution folder at least twice, the update will not go away. I have since hidden it. BTW, I have a 3rd generation (Ivy Bridge) i5-3570K processor on this machine. I have 2 other machines with Intel processors (a Sandy Bridge Celeron with no discreet graphics, and a Haswell Refresh Pentium G3258 with a Radeon HD 7750 discreet card) all running Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit, and I haven't seen this update yet for those. Edit: same update appeared for my Celeron machine as well. I hid that too.

Do you guys think Windows will fix this on the next update? I might just wait it out.

Hi Uttam Yadav, The deed is done, check your messages. Crysta

Do you guys think Windows will fix this on the next update? I might just wait it out. I don't believe the driver update is for Intel HD Graphics 3000 Graphics Controller on W 8.1 Pro, so I am not expecting a fix. I believe the hidden update will disappear, eventually. Now if Intel is really rolling out and update for my Graphic Controller on my Motherboard then I will see it on their site. Until then I am not worrying about it. Besides I don't trust drivers for 3rd party hardware FROM MS WU. They have screwed up to many times!!! Crysta

I also have a HP Probook 4530s running on Win8.1 Pro x64. Did you get switchable graphics working properly (or at all, playing nice with Intel)?
