Hello Obaid_Obi_,

 

 

I understand that you are having problems with Intel ® Turbo Boost Technology. I apologize for any inconvenience.

 

 

In regards to this issue, the problem is that you are trying to install the drivers for "Intel ® Turbo Boost Max", which is Intel ® Turbo Boost Technology 3.0. Your unit only supports Intel ® Turbo Boost 2.0 which works automatically as long as it is enabled in the BIOS. The Turbo Boost does not need drivers as it is enabled in the BIOS and it boosts the speed automatically depending on the tasks.

 

 

 

Regards,

Are you 32-bit or 64-bit? If 32-bit, your ivy bridge processor is not supported on Windows 10:
