Something weird is going on with my drivers. Msi center says I have the lastest Realtek network driver yet Device manager says I have one from an older date. The one that MSI states says it should be the one most up to date. I did the update via MSI center because my gaming pc was been BSOD for the last week and a half randomly on Destiny 2. It says the error is related to AFD.Sys which is related to the network adapter.

    Realtek driver version numbers are "dated" --- 714 means July 14 2021, 909 means Sept 9 2021.

    There is a newer one on Realtek's website.
