I am using the latest version of Windows 8.1 on my desktop computer. Once in a while I get this popup that gives me the "Display driver stopped responding and has recovered" error:
I recently went to the Intel site and downloaded and installed an update to their driver, but that didn't help.
Shall I be concerned about this error? And is there any way to fix it?
PS. I checked the Windows Event Log for any errors and there's only one warning in the system log that says this:
