So, I know this is an ongoing issue, I've seen many complain about in the past, but I can not get the chipset drivers to install on my new Ryzen desktop. I had this issue in the past on both my 970m and llano based laptop.
So, my PC is a Dell with a x370 board. I reinstalled a fresh copy of Windows direct from the Microsoft creation tool. Installed the drivers provided on Dells site. Video card and the majority of everything installed fine. Computer works, but all the chipset devices have Microsoft branded drivers in device manager.
So, I downloaded both the video package and the chipset package off of the AMD site. They both appear the same each time I run them. I go to custom install and it's the same 4 devices it sees every time.
So, I tried to manually install some things. Under the "IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers" I had 2 listings for "Standard SATA AHCI Controller". The top one installed "AMD SATA Controller" when I manually pointed it to the AMD directory folder. The second one refused to install even though I once again pointed it to the AMD driver directory folder.
Why does the AMD installer blunder everything? If there is no way to get the installer to detect the chipset properly how do I find out what all devices in device manager need an AMD driver manually installed?
