I don't have direct experience with your setup, but many years running Cakewalk on Intel, and lately Intel/NVidia combo systems, has led me to a few conclusions of late. does anyone have advice on this Intel graphics driver update and how it might help or hurt the running of CbB? They seem to promote it for gaming performance.Īll I really care about is have a stable Cakewalk environment!


Intel hasn't provided much clarity re the purpose of the DCH driver and the ARC utility. They just keep asking me for more info, and it's starting to feel like I'm doing their QA testing. It's gotten bad enough that I have a support ticket open with Intel, which they've been working for about 2 weeks, with no resolution yet. All of this failed. And THEN the Windows Update utility came along and "updated" the Intel driver to an older version than I started with. I tried several times to install the update using Intel utilities and when that failed, I used Intel instructions from Intel Support to "manually" install it. Now lately Intel has been trying to push a graphics update "Intel® Graphics DCH Driver for Windows® 10 & Windows 11" which includes an ARC management utility. The system is almost all Intel - CPU, Graphics, Intel Driver & Support Assistant, and there is also an NVidia graphics chipset. I have a 5 month old Intel NUC 11 Enthusiast mini-PC.
