DSA Graphics driver not downloading

[Marco_]

For the recent graphics drivers DSA refuses to download the graphics driver only, for an Alder Lake laptop, other drivers will download and install. The progress counter will advance a couple percent then reset to zero a couple times then just stay at 0. Downloading and installing the driver manually works and will result in DSA showing the driver as up to date, but the problem repeats for the next update.

I've reinstalled DSA while removing the log directory, same problem.

Don't seem entirely alone with this problem :

PS. if I open the website front end in Firefox instead of Edge, the progress ping pongs up and down a little faster but it still never finishes. It seems to be using the Microsoft BITS to download the driver, I think the other drivers manage to install because the downloads are small enough for DSA not to screw them up by resetting the download halfway.

I am experiencing the same issue for about a week. The download will start, the bar starts to fill but suddenly restarts from the beginning. This keeps happening over and over and the download never finishes. Pls let me know if I can be of any assistance by supplying log files etc.

Marco_,conqvist, Thank you for posting in the Intel® Communities Support.

For this scenario, we recommend to scan with different browsers. You mention you already tested Edge and Firefox, did you test Chrome as well? Those are the three web browsers supported by the tool.

You can also attempt to clear the browser cache and then try rescanning the Intel® DSA tool.

Even though you also explained that you already try to uninstall the application, for testing purposes, if the problem persists, run the Intel® Driver & Support Assistant Uninstaller version 22.6.39.9:

https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/19333/intel-driver-support-assistant-uninstaller.html?v=t

Restart and install the latest Intel® Driver & Support Assistant version 22.6.39.9:

https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/18002/intel-driver-support-assistant.html?wapkw=dsa

If the issue remains, please provide the following details:

What is the model of the laptop?

Was this problem of not installing the driver happening before?

If not, when did the issue start?

Did you make any recent hardware/software changes that might cause this problem?

Which Windows* version are you using?

Does the problem happen at home or in the work environment?

Attach the SSU report so we can verify further details about the components in your platform, check all the options in the report including the one that says "3rd party software logs":

The latest Intel® Driver & Support Assistant Uninstaller log file: using File Explorer, search for DSAUninstaller.log

And the latest Intel® Driver & Support Assistant log files: using File Explorer: go to folder = C:\ProgramData\Intel\DSA, and zip the Log files or entire folder as indicated in the following link:

You may download the Intel® Graphics Driver 31.0.101.3430/31.0.101.2111 and install it manually. You should be aware (please read the Description on the Download page), that this is Intel Generic Driver and after installing if you have installed customized by OEM driver,  it will be overwritten.

Hello Marco_, conqvist, I just received an update on this matter.

We just wanted to let you know that there was a fix done today in the Intel® DSA to resolve this issue. The issue with some downloads offered by Intel® DSA not downloading is resolved. This was due to a change in Microsoft BITS infrastructure that impacted the way Intel® DSA downloaded drivers. Our Intel® DSA team has implemented a fix on our end to handle this change and the latest Intel® DSA version released Oct 14, 2022, should resolve this. Please check in Intel® DSA settings for v22.6.42.2, it should silently update to the latest version.
