#FRESH INSTALL WINDOWS 7 X64 DRIVERS DRIVER#

Immediately after Windows 7 ењ†4 setup network driver is not installed. !!!ДЄs of now I use PROWin7_64_18.3.exe downloaded from Intel website.

So I didn't want to install anything from Asus CD in my final OS setup and decided to use drivers from Intel website as much as I could. The fact that this utility is even needed tells you 2 things: a) enough people want to get rid of AI Suite that such utility had to be written and b) uninstaller for AI Suite doesn't work properly. Also Google 'Asus com service memory leak' and look at Asus forum - there they publish semi-official 'Asus AI Suite removal utility'. On my subsequent test OS setup I got it installed but I didn't do anything special and don't know what 'the fix' turned out to be. AI Suite just wouldn't install when I tried it first time - it seemed the installer process was running but application window just wasn't visible (this is a known problem often mentioned on forums starting about 2 years ago and Asus still hasn't fixed it).

I am somewhat skeptical about the quality of Asus software after owning Asus RT-N66U router (see my review for it: ) and giving a try to Asus AI Suite. Yes, it will add about an hour to Window updates installation. Use original Windows 7 DVD without integrated SP1 instead if you can. See this for the fix (it is a known issue): Reason is that SP1 was not correctly integrated and you will be receiving this error in Event Log after each boot:Дetails - Event filter with query 'SELECT * FROM _InstanceModificationEvent WITHIN 60 WHERE TargetInstance ISA 'Win32_Processor'ДЄND TargetInstance.LoadPercentage > 99' could not be reactivated in namespace '//./root/CIMV2' because of error 0x80041003.Д®vents cannot be delivered through this filter until the problem is corrected. This post is a result of about 4 test OS installs and about a week worth of tinkering with different drivers and Asus AI Suite.Д¬onnect your mouse/keyboard to USB 2 ports on the front of your case (this motherboard doesn't have USB 2 ports on board) because Windows 7 doesn't have built-in USB 3 drivers on DVD and Windows 7 setup won't recognize it when connected to USB 3 ports. All software and driver issues I needed to fix were found in that view at one point or another. If after each boot you have something new here it is worth investigating. Thankfully, Microsoft provides a useful Custom View in Event Log called 'Administrative Events' that shows you all errors/warnings from all Windows Logs.

The guide on how to do this is here: Д®verything below applies to Windows 7 ењ†4ДЄs this was my first build I wanted to make sure all components work perfectly together (or as close to that as can realistically be achieved).

NOTE THAT IT IS POSSIBLE TO FORCE WINDOWS 8 NETWORK DRIVERS TO INSTALL UNDER WINDOWS SERVER 2012. To be safe I would follow this for all other drivers as well. Intel explicitly warns you about it in README file (but who reads these, right?) for USB 3 drivers, which makes sense - while driver is installed the device is connected and disconnected and setup program is running from that drive - not a good idea. !!! DO NOT INSTALL ANY DRIVERS FROM USB FLASH DRIVE - COPY INSTALLERS TO THE HARD DRIVE AND INSTALL FROM THERE !!! UPDATE YOUR BIOS BEFORE PROCEEDING!!! You can do this before installing the OS.
