Re: X201: Windows 10 Version 1511 10586 freezes (mainly on videos), youtube not working, etc.

After update at Version 1511 of Windows 10 I run into problems: windows was freezing. At the beginning for not reason at all but afterwards I've noticed that it was freezing during this video autoplay in facebook for example.

Other symptoms were that youtube was not functioning, in any of the browsers. Best results were in Chrome but also there the sound was not functioning.

 

Googling it did not helped so I've tried somehow to solve it without a clean install (**bleep** Microsoft way...)

and I've found the solution: I've reinstalled the video driver. I've took the one for Windows 7 from lenovo support site, set in in compatibility mode and reinstall it.

 

This seems to solve the problem and I've wanted to share it with you.

 

Laptop in case is an x201 but an update on a T410 is in progress and I will make the checks for the symptoms and if they are the same I will try this one on. Will let you know if there are any updates.

L.E. T410 does not seem to show the same symptoms. It seems the update was installed correctly.

Probably I am the only one experiencing this on my X201 MTM 3680, but the latest install of Windows 10 Version 1607 for x64-based Systems (KB3188128) generated the same problem.

 

Same solution: installation of video drivers for Win7: Intel HD Driver (integrated)

 

works like a charm...

Nice post and thanks for sharing with us. And I upgraded to Windows 10 a few months ago, and it worked so well at first. But suddenly, I got problems with playing YouTube videos. Not all YouTube, but just a few that can't play. I've tried to change a browser, update browser, clear browser's data......But not working. Luckily, I finally find a tutorial and it saved me out of this trouble. Just wanna share with you in case someone else may meet the similar problems.
