yes, use the latest 10.1.1.7

then d/l and install the latest intel engine (MEI) management driver.

i thought driver and software are different ?

is that similiar to the driver update ?

nope, not the chipset, the MEI can be updated, but not wise.

so i should install the software first.

then download MEI using the software or download manually ?
