The Intel® Chipset Software Installation Utility was developed for updating Windows* Operating Systems with the Plug and Play feature on Intel chipsets. The Intel Chipset Software Installation Utility is not required or compatible with Operating Systems without the Plug and Play feature, such as Windows NT* 4.0. This utility allows the operating system to correctly identify the Intel chipset components and properly configure the system. The Intel Chipset Software Installation Utility installs specific Windows INF files. The INF files inform the operating system how to properly configure the chipset for specific functionality, such as AGP, USB, Core PCI, and ISA PnP services. For more details about the specific INF files that are updated, please refer to the readme.txt file that is included with the Intel Chipset Software Installation Utility for Intel chipsets. These Release Notes outline the new features and key changes of this software since the last release. Additional information regarding troubleshooting, software sightings, and bug fixes is also included here. |
