Intel Management Engine Interface Problem

This device cannot start. (Code 10)

STATUS_DEVICE_POWER_FAILURE

Have installed latest intel driver for this on my Dell 8700 and it is still flagged as non-operational in device manager.

Always include version of Windows.

Read this at the Microsoft forum.

I'd start with clearing BIOS (eg, last post over there):

Reboot and immediately press F2 to open BIOS setup

Copy down all current settings

Power off, unplug

Press/hold power button for ~15 sec

Open case and remove motherboard battery

Press/hold power button for ~30 sec

Reinstall the battery

Close case and reboot

Why copy down all BIOS settings? Shouldn't the BIOS reset to default settings after battery reinstall?

Is it fixed?

Always good to copy the settings before resetting BIOS to the defaults, because the defaults may not be the right configuration for your system.

Eg, the default SATA Mode setting might be RAID AutoDetect/ATA but you need AHCI because SATA drivers are installed, etc...
