Stop Launching Intel Graphic and Media Control Panel in Every Boot Up

Just restore my Lenovo ThinkPad T410i to factory setting and update everything. The Intel Graphic and Media Control Panel jump out asking for setting every time boot up. It seems I am not the only one.

I try to use msconfig.exe to see if it loads gfxui.exe (Intel Graphic and Media Control Panel) automatically but get nothing. It’s no available in registry, either.

The only solution is to download the official driver from Lenovo. According to your model, you will be redirect to a page. Look for “Display and Video Graphics” section and download the latest Intel HD Graphic (Integrated) Driver for your operation system.

After install the driver from Lenovo, the Intel Graphic and Media Control Panel won’t bother me again.
