Aurora-R4, Intel Chipset drivers

Hi, Is it ok to update the intel chipset drivers using the latest version from Intel's web site or is it advised to stick with the version available on dell's support and downloads web site? Matthew

Dell customizes drivers for their models so you should stick to the Dell versions for chipset drivers.

Intel warns about this on their website--

About Intel® Drivers

 

The driver or software for your Intel® component might have been changed or replaced by the computer manufacturer. We recommend you work with your computer manufacturer before installing our driver so you don’t lose features or customizations.
