Well , that's a damn good reason to get back to Vista ! I will send you the link to get Vista drivers .

For the future , I'm guessing Texas has plenty of shops with affordable external storage solutions , so just buy an external HDD , USB stick or whatever you desire and copy your drivers/files there . Better to have at least two backups. Or just burn them onto a DVD (worst case scenario).

Guru 3d got them. Try use these to win10. I cannot say if works on win10 (since got personal ban to windows 8 and newer) but on win7 and hd4000 works no issues.

There are multiple drivers for that GPU on Microsoft Update Catalog/Windows Update, so unless your Windows installation is fubared, one of them should have been installed automatically.

The update procedure can be triggered manually from Device Manager->your graphics card's (display adapter) properties window->Driver tab.

I got new pc and drivers wasnt compatible with old windows 10 (build 1607)

so i changed the ini and remove the signature file and install it in test mode / disable driver signature

and everything is working well

The drivers at that link appear for me, showing XP to Win 10.
