I am trying to install "VGA_Intel_10.18.10.3304_W81x64_A" but I get the following message:

"This system does not meet the minimum requirements to install the software."

All other drivers were installed successfully.

 

Any tips?

    When I was using the preview version, I remember having to reinstall Acer's display driver to make it work. Strangely, having just updated to the official version, Windows installed Intel's 10.18.10.3316 driver and all seems to be working perfectly, including brightness control. The only hiccup that I encountered was blurry fonts in Device Manager, which was solved by changing font scaling size to 100% then back to the 125% I was using.

     

    With all of the problems that I experienced with the preview version, I was expecting more trouble with this upgrade.

     

    My suggestion would be to have it auto search for driver online and it should give you the same driver that I'm using now. Not quite sure whether or not this makes a difference, but I upgrade to 8.1 from the Acer's Windows and not the general Windows 8.

    After auto search: Driver software for your device is updated.
    I still have version 9.17.10.2667 but the newest is 10.18.10.3304?

    Try the generic Intel one provided by Windows. I'm not sure why that latest drivers won't install...

    I have the same problem. Just updated to Windows 8.1.

    On Windows 8 I was running 9.17.10.2867 intel driver. After Windows update I had to reinstall it manually as there was some conflict in Device Manager.

    Today downloaded new driver from Acer site but same error on install:

     

    "This system does not meet the minimum requirements to install the software."

     

    I guess we have to wait for corrected one...

    For now I'm staying with 2867 which seems to work fine.

    Well, this is semi fix I would say. The link you provided is 15.31.17.64.3257 version of intel driver which is for windows 8.

    For windows 8.1 it should be 15.33.5.64.3316 I think

     

    https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=23323&lang=eng&OSVersion=Windows%208.1%2C%2064-bit*&DownloadType=Drivers

     

    Anyway if Acer is customizing drivers for their equipment then downloads from their site should work. We should not look for ourselves which driver will work and which will not.

    It's not because I've seen 8.1. It's because it's newer. If you did not try others do not claim that something is the best. By semi I meant work around. Topic is driver for windows 8.1. So of course other driver will work but that is not the point here. And finally when you write maybe you should check your spelling.

    What I do not understand is why Acer delivers us a driver that does not work!!!

    Breathe man. I have old version of driver that was working under W8 and it is still working as designed. So there is more than one that will work.

    And spelling, well that is just rude and shows disrespect to all the others here. No more comment.

    How u cant understand ..  it's simple .. they just dont bother.. or they have time.. look on drivers page ..  there is soft since 2012...  only wifi and bluetooth been updatwd and u know what ? those drivers arent latest .. one guy here gaveme link and i installed latest ones.. 

    i never go to acer website for downloading drivers .. i have special program for it .. just because you have acer product u think u have to go find drivers ONLY on their website? nooo man .. since w700p iconia is full windows version u have to think like u have desktop u made by your self .. and go DIRECTLY step by step to manufacturers websites of each device what is in your tablet.. or have one of many softwares which will automatically finds all missing or out of date drivers for your OS and computer... that is how I do it ... ciao

    Exactly my point. If it is not working it should not be posted.
