Hello c0br4x

All looks good, I don't see any missing drivers in that section of your device manager.

If they are optional updates, they're not critical to install. I have some optional updates that I didn't install, I don't notice any issues with them not being installed.

i was searching and found some drivers that @MoKiChU posted that are more updated jsut can see what to download but maybe i will give it a try because some driver are too old for example this one that i think is the one appearing in windows optional update  
or am i wrong and just let it be like this ?

Hi,

In order to avoid drivers conflict, I do not advise you to install the drivers from Windows Update - Optional updates if you don't know exactly what you are doing :

These (or any Intel Chipset Drivers from Windows Update - Optional updates) mustn't be installed to avoid Intel Chipset Drivers conflicts :

From Intel : 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 Intel Chipset Drivers installed from the Intel .exe installer are from this date, while the Intel Chipset Drivers installed from Windows Update - Optional updates are not from this date in your DriverStore (use Driver Store Explorer to check that in System devices category).

I you already installed it, follow this process to cleanup :

- Uninstall your current Intel Chipset Drivers package (via Start > Settings > Apps) then restart your PC.
- Launch Driver Store Explorer (Right click on "Rapr.exe" > Run as administrator) > Check the boxes of all versions of Intel drivers which .inf contains system word in the System device category.
- Check the box "Force Deletion" then click on the "Delete Driver(s)" button then restart your PC.

- Install the last Intel Chipset Drivers package from your motherboard support page (but you can find a more recent version in my thread below).

These one are fine, these are your Intel Serial IO Drivers (but you can find a more recent version in my thread below).

You need these drivers/firmware for your ASUS ROG Strix Z390-F Gaming motherboard (you don't need Intel iGPU Drivers if you disabled/don't enabled it in your BIOS) :

It's fine to update the optional updates.

The important one is the Chipset driver, everything else is pretty much optional.

I have the same motherboard and windows core isolation blocks asio.sys which also means I cannot use various programs. It's been utterly catastrophic as I'm a music producer and can no longer use my two main programs. Going on two weeks now. The computer is less than 5 y/o.

[Nate152]

My core isolation is set like this, I'm having no issues.

If you have a usb soundcard and/or ableton live...try finding your soundcard on the preferences menu because I can't.
