    I'll keep this short and simple because I've been up for 19 hours trying to figure this out, but I ultimately failed and decided to visit you guys. Most of my games on my laptop, I'm assuming, require this particular driver. If anyone has this exact driver and knows how to help, please tell me. If you don't, do your best to inform me. The driver is: Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family.
    And fun for me, Code 12 has taken a tole on this specific driver. Before, I could play anything I want to. But since this driver has been screwing up on me, I can't run any games I would like to. I don't have sufficient resources apparently, so I cannot get this device to work. And I don't want to take my chances by turning off a device that I would actually need, because I'm starting to go a little crazy. Can I get any help here?

    Well I tried all of that. My driver isn't broken. In fact, it's fully functional. And it's fully up to date. I have a driver scanner that does its work every time I log in. I just need to know if there is any way or form that I can provide resources for my driver without taking out anything that's significant to my computer. If there is any easier way I can do that, tell me. Thanks.

    We here at MG's do not really approve of driver scanners as they can create more driver "issues" than they say they can resolve.
    I would uninstall the driver finder software and would look only at geniune resources for your drivers.
    if you wish to have any more advice on this please post back and i will assist in helping you to fix it.:major

    I'm using Auslogics and Winzip both, along with the standard run of the mill auto updater installed onto the computer. I looked up and saw Auslogics was a pretty good bit of software. It worked perfectly fine for me. Sorry if anything is just complicated, I just don't exactly understand what I can do about Code 12.

    Hi,
    I still believe this issue is caused by a conflicting driver that was installed by the driverfinding software!!! Do you have a restore point that was made before the issue arrised?? if so I would advise to do a system restore and see how things run from there!! if your not experiencing the code12 error .. then i would seriously consider removing the updater software.

    I have a restore point, but I've already system restored. I know for a fact it's code 12. I think I'm just going to reset my BIOS from my jumper and go back to factory settings, build up from there.

    HI

    Are you going to completely re-install Windows from scratch? if so install your chipset driver first and reboot, then install the other drivers you need and look in Device Manager for any yellow ! marks as they will alert you to missing drivers.
