The solution was using an XP 32bit driver, which seemingly can do PAE. I can’t believe it, but I got Win7 to work on a Intel HD 3000 graphics (i3 Sandy Bridge) with this PAE patch. I believe even in not a bug, but a deliberate restriction.Īnd so is this link ( ) Forum Intel can sit and wait that Intel will fix this pseudo “bug”.īuy a Graphic Card (not Intel) to user with Windows PAE kernel. Based on the Intel driver for Windows XP, or modify it to be accepted by Windows Vista/7/8 or modify the Intel driver for Vista/7/8. Unfortunately if you try to install the XP driver ain the Windows Vista/7/8 the system informs that “the computer does not meet the requirements”. I also read that a user who probably did an upgrade from Windows XP to Seven, did a rollback of a Intel HD Windows 7 driver to a XP driver version and has worked fine (Windows PAE kernel driver Intel HD XP). This is very clear because Intel has partnered with and is a partner in developing drivers for GNU / Linux systems that have 32-bit PAE kernel and there is no limitation in the intel graphic driver nor crashes. S.Īnd these crashes doesn’t happen with Nvidia and AMD/ATI drivers. Intel is a partner of Microsoft in many things and not offended things decided it will not fix the bug in their driver (HD 000) which gives a beautiful crash every time you use a PAE kernel versions in a 32-bit no Server Windows O. The reason is not known and there are several assumptions and rumors. Microsoft has put a restriction of 4 Gb memory on all 32-bit versions of their operating systems from Vista, except for the Server versions (2003, 20). The goal is to update WINDOWS to let it understand the driver signature.Well, I have dug deeply the internet and from what we have found the following problems:

The reason we found is a problem of Windows Update (preventing to admit recently signed drivers).ġ- You may de-install this drivers and REBOOT.Ģ- You may update WINDOWS 7 with Control Panel / Windows Updateģ- If your Windows Update does not work (stuck), you may follow this solution: A recent hardware or software change might have installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged, or that might be malicious software from an unknown source. 'Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device.

The message given in the Device Manager for the disabled Driver is:

Even if forcing the Setup program to run in administrator mode. In rare cases, and especially with Windows 7 圆4, we got the installation issue where virtual audio driver are installed but disabled because a digital signature problem.
