@Squall Leonhart:
Simple reason: Nobody (except you) gave me the info, that a newer version is available, and nobody gave me the link to the related package.

you're right, there is no differences in the system binaries or inf files, this is quite shady, i'll post on station drivers that the driver isn't legit.

Well this is the results for the first time installed this drivers on my X99 Deluxe2

ASMedia USB 3.0+3.1 Drivers v1.16.43.1 WHQL are disastrous. In my config stated in my signature, this happenned:
- On Win7 x64, no devices were detected if plugged in Asmedia ports. I started to wonder if the ports were fried.
- On Server2003 x86 (used as a workstation, in place of XP), it gave BSOD during installation, and after restart the devices had an exclamation mark (!) and said they couldn't start.

Of course I installed the correct drivers for the OS.
I reverted to version 1.16.41.3 and all is functioning normally.
Maybe they are tested only for newer platforms.

Same here I have rampage IV extreme X79 and only 1.16.41.3 Asmedia Drivers are working.They install OK but don't work.

Installed/working ok on my Z97-K.
Only........ I went from 180MB/sec naar 150MB/sec ???

How can ??!

@Fernando
Due to the reported problem with v1.16.43.1 I have tried to come back to v1.16.42.1 via DPINST64.
The operation is accepted without any error, but checking the Device Manager i see always v1.16.43.1 is installed.
So, DPINST method is valid for upgrading and not for downgrading a driver ?

@Fernando,
GREAT, the "downgrade" works fine for this ASMEDIA USB driver. Perfect.

@Fernando
Looking at Ccleaner after ASMEDIA driver, downgrade via DPinst, I observe the Registry information does remain identical as before 'downgrade'.
Do I have missed something ?

@Fernando,
After the 'downgrade' operation using DPinst64 method (including DPinst.xml file) some v1.16.43.1 driver traces does remain.
However v1.16.42.1 is properly installed (when looking at Windows Device Mngr).
Ccleaner displays these traces.
When uninstall these traces using Ccleaner, in fact all the just downgraded v1.16.42.1 driver is also cleaned and replaced with native MS for ASMEDIA USB 3.x driver.
So, to get a clean ASMEDIA USB 3.x driver situation I have to re-install via DPinst64 method the v1.16.42.1 pure driver.
