Yes, I tried to uninstall the driver builtin in win10 upgrade process and "find new hardware" but it didn't work.
I also tried to force the installation of w7 driver (from advanced boot options).
Now I can't restore W8 (I'm over 10 days from upgrade) and W10 does not work properly....

@Fernando

I think it as the last chance...
The notebook is property of my customer that has upgraded... and he want to use his notebook as soon as possible.
Thanks for your help.

Hello :) Here are my system specs: Windows 7 x64 and Asus X99-A II which has three different chipsets responsible for USB 3.0/3.1 control:
- Intel X99 (USB 3.0)
- ASMedia ASM1074 (USB 3.0)
- ASMedia ASM1142 (USB 3.1)

On my mainboard's website there are two files under USB section to download for Windows 7:
- Intel USB 3.0 Controller Driver 4.0.2.42
- ASMedia USB 3.1/3.0 Driver 1.16.33.1 (marked as beta version)
There is one additional file but it is only listed for Windows 10:
- ASMedia USB 3.1/3.0 Driver 1.16.35.1

On Intel website I've found something named as "Intel USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller Driver for Intel® 8/9/100 Series and Intel® C220/C610 Chipset Family" - and the only version is 5.0.4.43. link: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/downloa...-Chipset-Family

I couldn't find any ASMedia drivers official download on their website. :(

On this forum I can see some "similar named" drivers:
a) Intel USB 3.0/3.1 eXtensible Host Controller Driver 5.0.4.43 (It is probably the same I mentioned above?)
b) Intel USB 3.0/3.1 Hub Driver 5.0.4.43
c) Intel USB 3.0/3.1 Host Controller Switch Driver 5.0.4.43
d) ASMedia USB 3.0/3.1 Drivers 1.16.49.1

Question 1: Should I install Intel USB 3.0/3.1 Driver 5.0.4.43 instead of 4.0.2.42 (listed on my mainboard's website) or is this something different?

Question 2: How can I tell which one of the three Intel USB 3.0/3.1 Drivers (a, b or c) is needed on my system? Or maybe I need all of them?

Question 3: Is latest ASMedia USB 3.0/3.1 Driver 1.16.49.1 safe to use on my system or should I use ASUS "official" 1.16.33.1 beta / 1.16.35.1?

Question 4: Does ASMedia USB file contain drivers for both ASM1074 and ASM1142 chipsets or do I need something else to install as well?

Question 5: Am I right that Windows 7 x64 is always natively supported so I do not need any of these modded drivers?

First post. Hi!
Only here to sh*tpost about the cert bug with driver version 5.0.3.43 (windows was unable to start after reboot)
Version 5.0.3.42 installed just fine.
Thanks for the drivers though.

Btw. is it possible to modify the driver so that the usb 3.1 roothub do not show up in "safely eject device".
I've tested a tweak in the registry that will remove the roothub.
\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_15B6&SUBSYS_11112222&REV_00\6&1ced4a4e&0&001000E0
(Asus Z170-Pro motherboard)
And here there is a DWORD called "Capabilities". If I set the value to "0" (original value "4") the device do not show up! (why should it anyways?!)
This tweak doesn't work after reboot as the value changes back to default "4".

@Fernando: Thank you for your answers. :)

ad.3. I think I will just install latest one (1.16.49.1) as this increase in version numbering (vs 1.16.33.1 beta / 1.16.35.1) is not so significant to expect any big changes inside package such as "backward incompatibility" with my X99 chipset (and these previous versions "worked fine" with it).

Got an Asrock Fatality Itx/ac mobo which is an AM4 ryzen mini itx board and theres a weird issue where it connects/reconnects my usb stick. Tried the AMD Zepellin 3.0/3.1 drivers from the first post but dpinstall says something about not being the right drivers. Any idea which are the appropriate ones

Sorry for the delay did not have access to the computer until today. Heres what i got

Forgot to answer your question. Win 10 Enterprise Creators Update (1703) is what i'm running. But those drivers will not install. Any suggestions

Trying to install the VIA 64-bit drivers (VEN_1106&DEV_3483&CC_0C0330) but I get "The best drivers for your device are already installed" when trying to update via Device Manager. Is installing the software package the only way?

Also tried the "Have Disk" method but it doesn't work ("...not compatible software driver").

Hello,

i have a very annoying problem since i switched from Windows 7 to Windows 10 (x64). When i first start my pc and plug in a usb 3 device, the speed is very low. On USB2-Level or below. After i do a reboot, the speed for alls usb devices is normal. i found out this problem have some other people too but no really solution. Because there are no USB3-Drivers for Windows 10 from Intel, i just tried to install the latest possible for USB2 for my chipset (Intel H77).

So i installed the "Intel(R) 7 Series/C216 Chipset family USB Enhanced Host Controller - 1E26" Version 9.3.0.1030.

But for the USB3-Controller only avaiable ist the "Intel(R) USB 3.0 eXtensible-Hostcontroller - 1.0 (Microsoft)". So this driver is from MS.

Now i found this forum and the modified drivers you offer. is it correct i would have to install the "pure 64bit Intel USB 3.0 Drivers v1.0.10.255 mod+signed (with DPInst option)"? Could installing theses divers solve my problem?
