ALL FILES FROM ASROCK(Z97 Extreme 6) D/L for win 10x64 and win 7x64
Windows 10 64bit ver:11.0.0.1146 (For some reason on top it says Intel Management Engine driver ver:11.0.0.1158) and when you dl it you get (ME(v11.0.0.1158_MEI).
For some reason a few weeks ago there were two files to dl. First was (ME(v11.0.0.1158_Consumer) and (ME(v11.0.0.1158_MEI) on 9-15-2015.

And on win 7 x64 there were 2 files as well. (Intel Management Engine Win 7 x64 v10.0.30.1054)Once you dl it (ME(v10.0.31.1000_1.5M) showed up,,, (Intel Management Engine Win 7 x64 v11.0.0.1146) and on v11.... this file showed when you went to dl it (ME(v11.0.0.1158_MEI) the date i did this as on 9-15-2015.
The current DL is ver:11.0.0.1146/ver:11.0.0.1158.
Could someone please explain why the asrock DL site had all these different downloads and are they all garbage? I was lucky im backing up stuff to do a fresh install otherwise i would of dl one of the at least. Right now they do have one version the 11.....
Is there any advantage to the previously described versions and which is best for win 10 x64 or win 7x64. Im just confused beyond belief.

Thanks,
Sebastian
 
I had a client with an Asus ROG Desktop, the Intel Management Engine on Asus's website was horrible and would cause driver crashing resulting in blue screens.

I would suggest you do a fresh install of windows and download the Intel Management Engine Interface driver from their site
https://downloadcenter.intel.com/search?keyword=intel+management+engine

After doing the fresh install of windows and fresh drivers everything is stable.

Why? I presume its because Asus cannot handle going through each motherboard with Intel Management interface and updating their database with drivers. Instead they hope people would go to intel and make the changes.
 


Ok, thanks
