Installing the Intel^® Embedded Media and Graphics Driver on Microsoft Windows

You can install and uninstall the Intel^® Embedded Media and Graphics Driver on a Microsoft Windows system by using the setup.exe program located in the IEMGD_HEAD_Windows\Utilities folder. The following procedure shows how to install the Intel^® Embedded Media and Graphics Driver. Uninstalling the Current Version of the Driver provides instructions for uninstalling the current version of the Intel^® Embedded Media and Graphics Driver.

Silent Installation

Intel^® Embedded Media and Graphics Driver supports silent installation through an option in setup.exe. With command line installation, add the parameter “/s” (case insensitive), for example setup.exe /s at the command prompt. When this option is used, the installation does not display any messages or splash screen except the warning messages about Intel^® EMGD not being WHQL compliant. After the silent installation, a message box prompts the user to reboot the system.

Note: To disable the Windows WHQL compliance warning messages, use the Windows System Properties -> Hardware -> Driver Signing -> Ignore option.

To allow silent installation with an automatic reboot but without the reboot dialog box stopping the installation, use the option “/r” following the setup.exe command, for example, setup.exe /r. When the driver installation completes, the system will automatically reboot without any prompts.

To allow silent installation without the reboot dialog box stopping the installation, use the option “/nr” following the setup.exe command, for example, setup.exe /nr. This will allow you to do any additional installation or other steps before rebooting. Your install process or the end user will be responsible to do their own reboot without being prompted that a reboot is necessary.
