* 1. OVERVIEW
************************************************************
The Intel(R) Chipset Device Software installs Windows*
INF files to the target system. These files outline to
the operating system how to configure the Intel(R) chipset
components in order to ensure that the following feature
functions properly:
- Identification of Intel(R) Chipset Components in
the Device Manager
- Modern Standby requires that 0 devices report
problems (no yellow bangs in Device Manager)
This software can be installed in three modes: Interactive,
Silent and Unattended Preload. Interactive Mode requires
user input during installation; Silent Mode and Unattended
Preload do not.
This software is DCHU compliant
D - compliant
C - compliant, due to not implemented
H - compliant, due to no UI components
U - compliant
This software also offers a set of command line switches,
which provide additional installation choices. Refer to
Section 4 for detailed descriptions of these switches.
Note: Intel(R) Chipset Device Software uses an unusual date
for the devices it is targeting. The date 07/18/1968 is
symbolic - Intel was founded that day. The reason this
date is used is to lower the rank of Intel(R) Chipset Device
Software.
This is necessary because it's a supporting utility that
should not overwrite any other drivers. Updating Intel(R)
Chipset Device Software is not needed - do not worry if you
don't have the latest version.
************************************************************
* 2. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
************************************************************
1. It is mandatory that the Intel(R) Chipset Device Software
be installed onto the target system prior to the
installation of other drivers.
2. Please refer to the Release Notes to view the list of
chipsets that the software included with this distribution
package is designed to operate with.
3. One of the following operating systems must be
fully installed and running on the system
before installing this software:
Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2 x64
Microsoft Windows 10 (Refer Release Notes for details.)
Microsoft Windows 10 x64
Microsoft Windows* Server 2016 x64
Microsoft Windows* Server 2019 x64
This software is designed for the latest Service packs
releases of above operating systems.
To verify which operating system has been installed onto
the target system, follow the steps below:
a. Click on Start.
b. Select Settings.
