It is eMachine G725, and something is wierd with screen by design: on point of boot manager like grub the fn key work ok, and can be set brightness... depending on os can be either: stay at this setting, or go to max brightness. I managed to fix brightness in some linux config file, and fn key was start working in winxp after install graphics driver... but issue is that value is disrupt on shutdown... on linux it load config file while boot, and it is fixed, but on winxp on every poweron is max brightness any ask to hit fn+arrow. Here on forum I posted solution for linux. For winxp is half ok...

I look to find some simple solution to execute Fn+left arrow once at winxp startup... It might be some simple specific command aplication, or batch script, or some C code (I have C compiler, but thats it)... can anyone help with idea or solution? On internet can find some sofisticated programs that can do such things and much more, but I not interested to load it to system for that.... ... ... If you interested in what is purpose... I have some bug or so on my laptop, and on every shutdown reset backlight to maximum, just flash one moment before go off... on next boot backlights is stuck to...

To see this text more clearly, look first white attachment... (thanks badapps.net for continuous upgrading...) To do feedback to myself, maybe will be helpfull or interesting to someone... I found problem regardless connectivity and tested it to confirm... I isolate setup, only win10 machine directly connected with cable to router. Parallely with this topic, I was tested different graphics card on the same machine, not bringing just any focus of imagination to will be interference with wired ethernet network... But, it is. Graphics card cause to this particular win10 to see or not to see router!...

Thank you my friends, I just find it and it work in native 1600x900 on winxp sp2 32bit, plus brihtness control over keyboard... I just search for GL40 drivers and they contained video driver as well. https://drivers.softpedia.com/get/GR...9-for-XP.shtml I downloaded yours winxp144215.zip too, just in case but not tested. Thank you all!...

What you mean, I only look for winxp drivers... download from intel winxp_145111.exe, from some drivers site also a few, from archive.org also... but the same error. Needless to say, this winxp machine has to newer not be connected to internet, so I seek to standalone drivers, not a half products or "automatic driver detecton and spy installer...".

I am trying to find graphics driver for old laptop eMachine G725, for winxp 32bit... from data on internet, https://gadgetaz.com/Laptop/eMachines_G725--1942 it will have Intel GMA 4500MHD graphics, so I downloaded a few of them but nothing work, error say: this computer does not meet the minimum requirements for installing the software. So, please somebody help me to find bare minimum graphics driver to see non deformed screen anymore...
