Have you done what I suggested?
My apologies for the delay. I had a bit of trouble determining which devices to attempt to update.
Intel(R) 8 Series/C220 Chipset Family SATA AHCI Controller: Successfully updated
Realtek High Definition Audio: Successfully updated
Intel(R) USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller: Already up to date (v 2.5.0.19)
This was completed while following XP ROCKS's tips.
Intel(R) Management Engine Interface: Already up to date (v 9.0.0.1287)
I am unsure as to why this driver didn't update. The folder Intel_MEI-Win7-8_8-1_VER95141724 is unzipped.
Other concerns:
Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller displays an error (Code 31) "Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device."
