I'm using the Intel Driver & Support Assistant and 1 driver doesn't seem to be updating after multiple tries. Specifically the:

 

"Intel® 100 Series/C230 Series Chipset Family PCI Express Root Port #1 - A110"

You can download all drivers (including Chipset driver) from the Intel Download site : https://downloadcenter.intel.com/product/126143/Intel-NUC-Kit-NUC8i7HVK . Install the driver manually.

In case that there are problem in the Intel site, please download the Driver Bundle, which includes all the drivers: https://downloadmirror.intel.com/DriverPackages/Intel-NUC-Kit-NUC8i7HVK_Win10-64_Drivers.20190312.zip

You need to do the following:

 

  1. Download the latest Intel Chipset Device Software (a.k.a. INF Update) package for this NUC. If you downloaded the package that Leon mentioned, it is included within this package. Otherwise, you can download it separately from here: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/28217/Intel-Chipset-Device-Software-for-Windows-10-64-bit-for-Intel-NUC-Kit-NUC8i7HNK-NUC8i7HVK?product=126143.
  2. Extract the contents of the Intel Chipset Device Software ZIP file to a folder on your system disk. For example, you could create and use a folder named "C:\Windows\Temp\INF".
  3. Open a Windows PowerShell window "As Administrator".
  4. Make your folder current. Using the example folder mentioned above, the command would be "cd C:\Windows\Temp\INF").
  5. Enter command ".\SetupChipset -overall".
  6. It should ask you to reboot at the end. Do so. If it doesn't ask, do so manually.

 

Hope this helps,

Hello @Zerocool7755​ ,

  1. The method proposed by Scott is probably good too, however I did this other way.
  2. There is some intermediate problem in the Intel download site, so probably you will not be able to download the Chipset driver from the direct link. So, as I've mentioned before, download the Driver Bundle zip : https://downloadmirror.intel.com/DriverPackages/Intel-NUC-Kit-NUC8i7HVK_Win10-64_Drivers.20190312.zip
  3. After unziping this bundle, you will find zipped Chipset Driver: inf_win10_64_10.1.17.1.zip . Once you will unzip this archive you will find there SetupChipset.exe . Run this setup file and the driver will be installed.

Thanks for the reply @LWAKSMAN​ 

I followed your steps and updated the driver with that method, but when I go back to the Intel Driver & Support Assistant webpage it's still telling me that the driver is not updated.

Hello @Zerocool7755​ ,

I'm not writing here on Intel behalf, since I'm customer like you are. I'm in this forum, already few years. Many times I saw complains on false indications from DSA. DSA sometime is looking on package version, while Windows displays driver version and they are different. So, if the installation ended successfully, you have the right driver. The version installed in my NUC is now 10.1.1.38. You may also try to install driver downloaded here https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/28217/Intel-Chipset-Device-Software-for-Windows-10-64-bit-for-Intel-NUC-Kit-NUC8i7HNK-NUC8i7HVK?product=126143 . This is packed under other number, however you will have installed same driver.
