    You only had Version 9, so anything past that is progress.

    Confirm the processor info to get the older driver from Info. It shows how here: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support...

    Here is how to find older drivers on Intel website:

    Here are the supported operating sytems for older Intel GPU's:

    This should help you find the best possible driver for what you have, and make the decision if necessary whether to stay with Windows 11 or go back to 10.

    Keep me posted on your progress as I will be here to help until the case is resolved.

    Wow. I was looking at the specs for Lenovo X202E here, are they not it?

    https://www.cnet.com/reviews/asus-vivobook-x202...

    It may have different specs in your region. Try running Speccy to see if it reveals the exact GPU model:

    Sometimes for hard to find drivers I'll install DriverMax for it's two free drivers a day. It's the most reliable driver finder which searches by the hardware ID in it's huge driver database. Set a System Restore point first. You don't need to buy it, uninstall it when you're done: https://www.drivermax.com/
