Updating Intel HD Graphics 3000 caused lower framerates in certain games

[LArci]

I have a Pavilion dv7-6b77dx with an Intel HD Graphics 3000, I decided to update the driver to the last one available (Version: 15.28.24.64.4229 Date: 06/05/2015).

After that, games started to have lower framerate than usual. I used to play League of Legends with "High" graphical settings at +50 fps and now I had to lower the graphics to "Medium" to have 60 fps and it stills drops to 30 when there's too much going on screen. Heroes of the Storm runs at an annoying 15-30 fps normally, and drops drastically when there's pretty much anything on screen, and I have everything set to the lowest.

How can I go back to my previous driver? I went to the properties of the graphics card and the "Roll Back Driver" option is grayed out.

Hello kizuxtheo;

Thank you for your enquiry. First let me ask what OS are you running with your Pavilion system.

Also have your check with HP for any issues regarding with the system.

Also the lower frame rate could be caused by different options. Example, antivirus, HDD performance or any monitoring software that can cause the usage of memory or HDD access.

But for Roll back could be gray out by any of the HP Utilities or the lost of the previous driver libraries that can be erase by disk cleaner or HDD space safe.

You can check the HP web site http://support.hp.com/us-en/product/HP-Pavilion-dv7-Entertainment-Notebook-PC-series/5145684/model/5193752/drivers/ http://support.hp.com/us-en/product/HP-Pavilion-dv7-Entertainment-Notebook-PC-series/5145684/model/5193752/drivers/

for previous drivers.
