XPS 15 - Dell Support Assist keeps installing the same drivers over and over
Hi, no matter how many times I follow SupportAssist's recommendation to install:
Docks/Stands Intel Thunderbolt Controller Driver
Chipset - Intel Serial IO Driver
Chipset - Intel Management Engine Interface Driver
and then reboot, it keeps telling me I need those drivers.
It did download and install a new Intel Video driver which hasn't reappeared.
Laptop: Brand new XPS 15 QHD display, windows 10. TIA
PS why the ridiculous number of "I am not a robot" Captcha pictures and puzzles !!! :-)

then i would uninstall the dell support assit. and manually download and install the drivers your self, you don't have to use Dell's support Assit.

Thanks Mikie that is not a bad idea, however I did like that it prompted me to install a new video driver, and I am new to Dell so am not familiar with the website yet.

Hi, I seem to have mislead you. It looked like the drivers installed every time (it asked me to reboot) but in fact they did not install - which is no doubt why the Dell Updater wants to keep trying... TIA
