Hi,

I purchased a pre-owned workstation with an i7-6700, 8gb ddr4 and onboard Intel 530. I updated the graphics driver to the newest version on Intel's site and suffer memory leaks (currently running BI5). The wiki references Driver Version 15.45.18.4664 which doesn't appear to be available to download on Intel's site.

Does anyone know off hand which driver is available to download that doesn't cause a memory leak or of another way to download the above driver?

Thanks.
 
Please tell us this was before you installed anything and not after you got it all up and running and then decided "hey my system is working, let me update a driver" LOL.

For future reference, if it is working, don't fix what ain't broke. Disable Windows updates.

Unless something is wacky, when you open up Device Manager, you should be able to select the driver and select properties and rollback to the previous version (mine doesn't show the option available as I haven't updated the driver):

I was having non-memory leak issues that prompted me to update the driver (e.g. problems viewing videos online). The memory leak was not at all on my radar when I updated the driver. Prior to posting here, I did rollback the graphics driver but the memory leak persists; see below:

I have now disabled Windows updates. Thanks

I think Looney had an i7-6700 that was wasn't happy being a BI machine. some were ok, some were troubled. Not sure if the drivers fix all the issues with that chip.

Yep, never solved the issue with that machine. It's been replaced with an EliteDesk G4 i5-8500 and running just fine.

I have the mis-behaving machine here at home, and when I get the urge, I'm want to dig into it to see what was causing the problem.
 
I've got an i7-6700K running BI in demo mode with SenseAI and never had a problem with it, even when it ran full BI and all my cameras. I had the luxury of not using Intel video though and relied on NVidia when it was the main machine and now a cheap Radeon when its an experimental use machine.
