TIPS :

If you want to manage the drivers (remove old/unused drivers for example) that you have in your Windows DriverStore
Use Driver Store Explorer (Right click on "Rapr.exe" > Run as administrator).

If you want better interrupts delivery latency
Enable MSI (Message Signaled-based Interrupts) mode on all your supported devices (see the column "supported modes") with
MSI Mode Utility (Right click on "MSI_Mode_Utility_v3.exe" > Run as administrator).

Still not sure about the status of these drivers. For example, why do they not make it onto the ASUS official MB support page? Just curious.

ASUS is failing to update their official drivers for their motherboards. Their Armory Crate is broke (at least for me). Their ezupdate doesn't keep my E490-E Gaming mobo updated. ASUS officially published BIOS doesn't work without Intel's latest ME (a mysterious Intel thing we must trust if we aren't AMD equipped). I don't trust ASUS officially released items entirely, my mobo simply doesn't work if I go by what ASUS officially publishes. I trust MoKiChU's announcements, they have always resolved issues when I come here looking for solutions.

I followed the instruction for how to clean out old drivers with RAPR and then reinstalled the Chipset drivers etc.
However I now have an "outdated" watchdog driver.

ASUS ROG MAXIMUS XI CODE, Z390.

Just use the ASMedia USB Drivers built-in with Windows.

Thanks again, until now I've always been pleasantly surprised by everything you do, the wifi driver behaves magnificently with the WRT1900ACS V2 with the software from OpenWrt OpenWrt SNAPSHOT r20410!

Hello MoKiChU

Thanks for this excellent thread!

Would you please tell me what drivers I need for my Asus TUF Gaming Z690 Plus Wifi D4?

(I built my system back in April and downloaded the relevant software from the Asus support page, but the info there hasn't been updated and I'm unsure what I need now. By the way, I am still on the 1304 bios. I will probably update to 1504 soon)

Thank you
