Intel (Conv.Sec.) Trusted Execution Engine: Drivers, Firmware and Tools

I uninstalled the version in use, I tried to launch the installation again and it says “Platform not supported”

Then the latest for your hardware platform was the ones you had previously, the same in OP of this thread. It means newer packages do not contain your hw device ID (TXE) in the inf driver list.

Unfortunately now I don’t even have the previous version, 2.0.0.1094. because I uninstalled it.

Do you have a link for this version?

Open your “eyes” a little more… i hate lazy people

EDIT: Oh you don’t read any info or topics… you just fetch, section A1 on FIRST POST of this thread

Sorry, I didn’t understand what you meant by OP.

As I said before, I had uninstalled the driver, I also uninstalled the remaining part with Revo Uninstall, downloaded the OP version, installed it, restarted the machine.
Now the little yellow error triangle no longer appears.

Thank you

CSTXE version 4.0.52.2150

Hi to all, i find Flash image tool for server platform based on C621A, current version CSE SPS v04.04.01.023. I have seen that someone here have this? but file was sended in PM

@plutomaniac may i download this file please :pray: :pray:

Okay… so I read the introduction, the Disclaimer, the Getting Started, the section A, the first two paragraphs of section B (can’t follow along without tools from section C), I read all of section C… and I feel properly lost. It’s a lot to take in, a lot of jargon I have not seen before. So I hope you don’t mind me for asking for directions.

Who updates their “(CS)TXE Firmware by following sequentially the relevant steps at Section B using the required Tools from Section C”? I mean what use case will call for firmware update of something as vitally important as TXE obviously is?

Is it only if I want to update the TXE firmware that I need to “install the latest Drivers from section A”? Are any of these drivers installed already OOTB by Windows? And do I need them if I only want to use tools like the Flash Programming Tool (FPT) to interact with my (CS)TXE? Can I do that, without installing special drivers for particular versions/generations/families of (CS)TXE/Engine and without updating the TXE firmware? This is what I want to do. I want to use FPT to dump my firmware so can examine or compare the contents of the NVRAM to another dump that I made with a programmer.

Should I use HWiNFO, or ME Analyzer, or TXEInfo to get the “Major.Minor” version number and other details right? If HWiNFO (version 8.22) has reported that I have “Intel ME” version 11.8, does that mean I have “(CS)TXE” version 11.8? And what “TXEI” driver version do I then need? (By the way, what does “I” in “TXEI” stand for?)

Whoever wants it or has a system with such SKU, obviously.

You want to digest everything researched in years, in just a few days? Get real will you…
Learn and ask when working on something specific, eventually you will learn specific case by case, not flooding the forum with questions that later you will ask again for sure, besides that you have a lot to read sir, understood?

If you did, you would by now already noticed that CS ME is not the same FW engine as CS TXE…differents aproaches, tools etc…

Yes. But you missed the second part: “I mean what use case will call for firmware update of something as vitally important as TXE obviously is?” In other words, for what purpose would someone be doing this?

I don’t know what gave you that idea. This post is just an overview of different Intel firmware, tools, drivers, etc. I have no expectation to understand it all, and I don’t need to.

No, I don’t understand. Why can’t I ask questions about the learning material if I don’t understand something? Why do I have to be working on something specific before I can ask a question?

I don’t mind the reading. On contrary, I read almost the whole thing, and then some replies too, so that I would not need to “flood the forum with questions”. But if I don’t understand something, I like to ask for a clarification and to strengthen my understanding of what I’m reading. Otherwise, I might as well just run with my head first and learn from my own failure – like the majority of newcomers I would imagine – rather than by reading what more knowledgeable people with experience write on the topic.

There’s a similar, but more relevant post over here:

It covers “Intel ME” (and CSME) specifically, rather than “Intel TXE” (and CSTXE), and it includes the system tools for Intel ME 11.8.

I did notice. Thanks to Wikipedia. But you could have been more helpful in your reply if you had just pointed me in the right direction by posting the link above.
