14 DAY TRIAL // Microsoft released Internet Explorer 10 for Windows 7 last week, promising to offer the same great performance of the default Windows 8 browser to users still running the most popular operating system in the entire world.
Some consumers, however, complain that IE 10 doesn’t install and displays an uncanny “Internet Explorer needs an update” error message, even though it’s downloaded from Microsoft.
According to an official post published by the Redmond-based technology giant, it’s all because your computer is using a hybrid video card, so you can’t install IE10 for the time being. Microsoft is currently working with computer manufacturers to address this issue and release a workaround.
The following computers are affected by the issue: Dell Inspiron N4120, Dell Inspiron N5110, Dell Vostro 3350, HP Pavilion DV6, HP Pavilion DV7, HP Pavilion G6, HP Pavilion G7, HP ProBook 4530s, Lenovo G770, Lenovo Ideapad G570 (20079), Lenovo ThinkPad E420 (1141PW8), Sony VPCCA15FW, Sony VPCCA17FL, Sony VPCCB2S1E, Sony VPCCB45FG,Sony VPCCB4Q1E, Sony VPCCB4S1R.
