SOLVED: minix neo z83-4 graphics driver (external USB boot)

For anyone with this issue. Here are the steps that I followed:
1. I disconnected the HDMI cable
2. Used TightVNC to remotely access the computer (had this set up already)
3. With the HDMI cable, disconnected, I installed the Intel(R) HD Graphics Driver for MINIX - NEO Z83-4
- version: 20.19.15.4624,2017-03-08
- I had tried to install this when the HDMI cable was connected and kept getting the error that this driver was not compatible (which I knew it was).

That is it - it installed, I restarted the computer and I have the correct graphics driver.

I hope that helps someone.

The original issue:

I am running this computer from a bootable USB

However, the monitor driver will not update from "Generic PnP Monitor"

1. I have downloaded the drivers from this forum, and tried to update them (one by one)
2. The drivers (that I downloaded from these forums) are difficult to navigate (I don't know which folder is for which component). I need to find the graphics driver so that I can force an update.

Is there a guide to this download? If not, which folder is the driver in (it is not in the Graphics folder):

Thank you!

p.s. I think that this issue is caused by a HDMI issue (not recognizing my monitor). I can't get sound through HDMI, only through bluetooth. Anyone resolve this issue (I think that it will help resolve the monitor issue).
