Yes , very good ! I followed your instructions and lot of my system-drivers went from 10.1.1.32 to your latest ; 10.1.1.27 , although you might think 10.1.1.32 is latest !

I find it sometimes very hard to understand the numbers of these Intel-drivers . Your 10.1.1.27 is from 26 June and 10.1.1.32 is from 16 June ............
A driver-updater ( Dumo ) is telling me all the time I should use Intel 10.1.2.19 , instead of 10.1.1.27 .......now who is right ??

Yes, the way Intel gives their version numbers and dates to the so-named "Intel Chipset Drivers" (they are no real drivers) is very strange and often even absolutely misleading.

You cannot always trust the Device Manager or any "Driver Updater" regarding the exact age of a certain driver. They both just look into the related INF file and show the date, which is layed down there.
Consequence: The shown "driver" date can be manipulated easily and is not always the date, when a specific driver (*.SYS file) or the related *.INF file has been effectively compiled by the chipset manufacturer.

Ok , Fernando, but still dont know which driver is right , 10.1.2.19 or 10.1.1.27 ?
10.1.2.19 is way older then 10.1.1.27 ,is all I know .

Please, have a look at this picture , maybe you have some suggestions for improvements for this Win10 x64-system .|addpics|91v-2-15ab.jpg|/addpics|

It depends on the chipset. The v10.1.1.xx line has been designed for "normal" Intel Chipsets (6-/7-/8-/9-/100-Series), whereas the v10.1.2.xx line primarily supports "Enterprise Edition" chipsets (e.g. X79/X99).
If you want to get the latest Intel Chipset INF files for your special system, you should just take my new "All-in-One Set". So there is no need anymore to care for the correct driverpack.

Yes , I did already and it chanced almost all system-drivers to 10.1.1.27 , so I guess these are the best drivers I can get untill now. Right ??
Dumo is setting me "on the wrong legg" ,by saying 10.1.2.19 is best ! ( see the picture.please )

Can you discover some improvements for this sytem ?

Yes, the files, which are within my "AIO Set", are the latest (and probably best).

The users, who install any newer Intel Chipset INF files, should not expect an improvement of the performance or stability, because these so-named "drivers" are simple text files and no real drivers with a hex code.
The only important thing is, that the OS gets the correct information about how to handle the related Intel Chipset devices. For details please read the infos, which I have layed down within the start post of this thread.

This is the thread about the Intel Chipset "Drivers" and nothing else. Please read the start post and follow my advices.
Regarding the other questions regarding the Intel MEI and RST please read the start posts of the related threads and post there, if you mean, that your questions have not yet been answered

The Intel USB Controllers need a real driver, but not any Intel Chipset Device INF file.
What means, that your USB ports "have not been installed"? Do they not work? Are their related USB Controllers not shown within the Device Manager?

Only the very old Intel Chipset Device Software packages up to v9 contained special INF files for the Intel IDE and USB Controllers, but these INF files
1. never had any function and
2. gave the devices misleading names, which let the users believe, that the related Controller is using an Intel driver, although it was the generic MS one.
