Updating Intel chipset driver

Quick question. I'm wanting to up date the chipset drivers for my P31-DS3L as i used the drivers from the cd for quickness sake. Am i right in guessing you don't need to uninstall anything? Just grab the latest driver and install?

Thx

Aye just install the latest 9.0.x drivers over the current ones.

Thx Cob. Do you have a link? I download the latest drivers from Gigabyte and it's 8.3.1.1011 2008/02/15.

v9 doesn't seem to be approved for non Intel boards yet, so the one on the Gigabyte site would be the better choice atm.

That is more recent than the current file on Intel's website then:

One more question. What does INFHelp.exe do? :confused:

I double clicked it just to see and it rebooted my PC.

Intel v9.0.0.1007 P45 Driver (works on older chipsets)

Infhelp.exe - probably reboots your PC I would imagine like you found it. I would assume it would run it after the inf setup has completed.

Yeah I installed those earlier, had no fatal errors or BSODs or the like on my P5K-E so they get my approval
