Saitek support tell me that I need chipset drivers for my mobo, but I need help with what to install.

Do I just need the bottom one, Intel Chipset Driver?

If you're having problems finding out what you need for a device just double click it, select the details tab, select hardware ids from the dropdown box and copy the first line of text (if there's more then one line) and paste it into your search engine of choice which should tell you want it is so you can get the correct drivers.

You should have gotten the drivers directly from intel since they would have the most recent drivers, and you should have downloaded the top item as it is the latest and most likely includes all the drivers.
 
Thanks for that great tip, it lead me to this page I have an Asus Z87-A board with a i54670k CPU, I tried the 4th Gen driver but it gave me an error saying "my machine does not fit the minimum requirements". I then found this, and installed ok but I still get an error.

If you've filtered down by motherboard model and windows version, then you need all of the drivers listed.
I made this mistake and ended up going round in circles for a while.
