SETUP [-b] [-overwrite][-nolic]
[-l{lang_value}] [-s] [-f2 {path\LogFile}]
[–nowinsat]

GRAPHICS INSTALL CUSTOM SWITCHES

-b Forces a system reboot after the
installation completes.In non-silent mode, the
absence of this switch will prompt the user to
reboot. In silent mode, the absence of this
switch forces the Setup.exe to complete
without rebooting (the user must manually
reboot to conclude the installation process).

-overwrite Installs the graphics driver
regardless of the version of previously
installed driver. In non-silent mode, the
absence of this switch will prompt the user to
confirm overwrite of a newer Intel(R) Graphics
Media Accelerator driver. In silent mode, the
absence of this switch means that the
installation will abort any attempts to
regress the revision of the Intel Graphics
Media Accelerator driver.

-nolic Suppresses the display of the license
agreement screen. In non-silent mode, the
absence of this switch will only prompt the
user to view and accept the license agreement.
The functionality of this switch is
automatically included during silent
installations.

-l{lang_value} The switch specifies the
language used for the Graphics Install
user interface. The absence of this switch
will cause the installation to utilize the
language of the OS as its default. Hexadecimal
values for the supported languages can be
found in the localized langauage abbreviations
section of this readme.

-s Run in silent mode. The absence of this
switch causes the install to be performed in
verbose mode.

-f2<path\logfile> Specifies an alternate
location and name of the log file created by a
silent install. By default, the log file is
created and stored during a silent install in
the windows temp directory as IntelGFX.log
(<WINDIR>\Temp\IntelGFX.log).

- nowinsat This switch turns off the automatic
support for updating/obtaining the WinSAT* DWM
score on Windows Vista* during installation.
In non-silent mode, the absence of this switch
will enable automatic support for updating the
WinSAT* score, but allow the option to disable
this support with a user accessible checkbox
shown within the IGDI dialog screen. In silent
mode, the absence of this switch forces an
automatic run of WinSAT and will enable the
Windows* Aero* desktop theme (if supported).
