Intel® Chipset Software Installation Utility
Installation Order - When Should I Install the Intel® Chipset Software Installation Utility?
The Intel® Chipset Software Installation Utility files inform the operating system how to properly configure the chipset for specific functionality, such as AGP, USB, Core PCI, and ISA PnP services. In order to be able to install any chipset-related drivers (e.g. graphics, IDE, etc.), your operating system must first be able to recognize your chipset.
If your chipset was released after the operating system you are using was released, then it is likely that your operating system is not able to natively detect your chipset. Refer to the "
Determining if the Intel Chipset Software Installation is required" page to determine if your operating system requires installation of the Intel Chipset Software Installation Utility for your particular chipset. If it does, immediately after installing your operating system (but before installing any chipset-related device drivers), it is necessary to install the Intel Chipset Software Installation Utility. Once the Intel Chipset Software Installation Utility has been installed, all of your remaining Intel chipset-related device drivers should install correctly."
