The Intel Driver Support Assistant (IDSA) won't detect Arc A770 on my NUC 12 Extreme (NUC12EDBi9). I tried several times to 'refresh' and reboot, looked through BIOS settings, and even reset my BIOS settings to the "optimal defaults" just in case.
BIOS: EDADL579.0055.2022.0901.1258 (latest, apparently from 9/1/2022)
Hopefully, Intel can debug the IDSA issue to resolve before the next customer sees this.
But, I'm not experimenting further, since I finally downloaded & installed the driver. Looks fine and now the Arc shows up in the IDSA graphics list as you'd expect.

Hello, @UnCoreM.
Thank you for posting on the Intel® communities.
I am sorry to hear what is happening with the Intel® DSA.
Please, answer these questions to have a better perspective of this issue:
- Is your Intel Arc graphics card getting detected in the Device Manager?
- Does your Intel Arc graphics card having issues itself or is it just Intel® DSA that is not detecting the graphics card?
- Run and attach the report of the following utility to confirm if your Intel Arc graphics card gets detected:
Intel® System Support Utility for Windows.
Note: Make sure to mark the box that says "everything" before pressing the Scan button. After that, click on "Next>" and select "Save" and then, attach the .txt file.

Hi Jocelyn ,
In the original post, I wrote that I:
"I finally downloaded & installed the driver. Looks fine and now the Arc shows up in the IDSA graphics list as you'd expect."
So, it feels like your response was automatically generated.
I can remove the SSD having my already working Windows + driver install, then start over with Windows 11 and a separate SSD. That will take some time to start over. I will try to do that in the middle of next week.
Regards,
Corey

Many thanks for your response.
Just to clarify, could you please confirm if you were able to download and install the Arc 770 driver through IDSA or if you had to look it up manually on our Download Center to be able to do so?
We appreciate your efforts on this matter. If you are going to reinstall Windows and test if the same issue happens, please let us know of the outcome.
Best regards,

I had manually gone to the download center.
In order to reproduce the original issue, I can remove the SSD having my already working Windows + driver install, then start over with Windows 11 and a separate SSD. That will take some time to start over. I will try to do that in the middle of this week.
I'm willing to try the above steps anyway because I have to find out why trying to have Windows enter SLEEP crashes and reboots the system. I'm not sure whether sleep was not working for the NUC 12 Extreme originally or got broken when I added the Arc A770.

Corey

Hello, @UnCoreM.
Thank you for your troubleshooting steps on this issue, please take all the time you need and let us know the outcome.
Regarding your second issue, please provide us with the following information:
- Do the crashes and reboots happen only in Sleep mode?
- How do you put the NUC in Sleep mode? What are the settings or method you are using?
- Does this issue still happen when you remove the video card A770 or is it fixed once you remove it?
- Run the following utility and attach the report for further investigation:
Intel® System Support Utility for Windows.
Note: Make sure to mark the box that says "everything" before pressing the Scan button. After that, click on "Next>" and select "Save" and then, attach the .txt file.

Thanks for the reply. We may have narrowed the problem with your questions...
- Do the crashes and reboots happen only in Sleep mode?
- How do you put the NUC in Sleep mode? What are the settings or method you are using?
- Does this issue still happen when you remove the video card A770 or is it fixed once you remove it?
- Run the following utility and attach the report for further investigation:
#1 - The issue is only when asking Windows to sleep OR when Windows tries to sleep after no activity. I looked at Windows Event Viewer and see 'Critical' entries like: System, Kernel-Power "The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly"
#2 - The problem is always reproduceable using the regular Windows 11 "Power" menu -> "Sleep" button. Also, I originally noticed this was happening because Windows defaults automatically to sleep I think every 15 minutes when no user activity. So, basically that also crashes and I saw a bunch of events with the same error. I had to turn off sleep and do not see the system crash at all as long as it doesn't go to sleep.
#3 - I disconnected the power to the Arc A770 card (and only Intel Integrated Graphics is in Device Manager) and that appears to fix the sleep crash.
#4 - Intel SSU report sent in private message to @Jocelyn_Intel
Problem seems related to Arc A770 graphics card.

Hello, @UnCoreM.
Thank you for the information provided.
I could notice that your BIOS version is outdated, please update your BIOS to the latest version 0056. These are the BIOS update instructions so you can perform this step and test the NUC again with the sleep mode and the Intel graphics card A770 in it again.
If the issue persists, please provide me with a new Intel® SSU report to investigate this issue in our team.
Best regards,
Jocelyn M.

- Take a video of the SLEEP issue.
- I noticed you installed graphics driver 31.0.101.4032, this time let's do a clean installation of the graphics driver BETA version 31.0.101.4034.

Hi @Andres_Intel ,
Thanks for the response.
I'm not sure what I can take a video of. I have Windows 11. SLEEP is just the normal Windows trying to sleep (after the default timeout ~20 minutes). The system crashes killing Windows ungracefully and powers off. The similar manual steps are...
- press Windows "Start" button
- in Start menu, press "Power" button.
- in the popup menu, press "Sleep".
- But the system just fully powers off and won't wake on any key press.
I know it crashed because when I look in the Windows Event Viewer I see a 'Critical' entry: System, Kernel-Power "The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly".
In a previous experiment, I have unplugged power to the Arc card. Then sleep and wake function normally.
I will wait for your response to what other info you'd like me to capture before I try that BETA driver.
Regards,
Corey
