Issue installing NVIDIA GeForce 820M drivers for Windows 7 64-bit

I recently bought an HP 15-022TX notebook (with NVIDIA GeForce 820M card). I installed Windows 7 Pro 64-bit from DreamSpark and downloaded the driver for the card from here.
Now when I run the setup, it gives the following error -

Now, as far as I checked, HP website does not have any drivers for this laptop.
So I headed over to Intel Download Center and used the
Intel® Driver Update Utility. But it seems Internet Explorer crashes every time I start the utility (tried this with Windows 7 Pro 32/64-bit, Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit).

Now I wanted to determine my Intel Graphics driver so here's the output of 'Right click on desktop' -> 'Screen resolution' -> Advanced settings' -

So how do I determine which driver to download from the Intel Download Center? In 'Find by Category', I looked in 'Graphics' -> 'Laptop graphics drivers' but none of the drivers listed seem to help.

PS - Ironically, I could find help for installing the driver for Ubuntu much faster.

Any help would be appreciated!
 
I need a couple things here. I either need the exact model number of the laptop as the one you gave doesn't come up. Or I need you to go into the device manger and click the plus sign next to display adapters and list what it shows. Also would help to give me the vendor and device ID numbers for each. To do that, right click on each one and click on properties, click on the details tab, change the property to hardware ID and then give me the 4 digit vendor and device ID numbers. They look like ven_xxxx and dev_yyyy where x and y are 4 alphanumeric digits.

The exact model number would help though. Should be labeled on the bottom on a sticker.
 
Thanks johnb35 and Okedokey for your suggestions. But it seems I've resolved my problem. I downloaded SlimDrivers Free from download.com and let it scan my laptop. It automatically detected the outdated VGA driver and downloaded and installed the appropriate Intel HD Graphics driver.

Anyways thank you for your support!
