@ gpvecchi and @ hyts:
Thanks for your feedback.
Once for the 2 different versions? As I have to made this again…
I agree. But I’m happy, that your modded+signed drivers work for me.
I have this problem, but I don’t know if this is modded drivers-related: I fitted a new internal USB 3.0 card reader (onto Intel header), but it can be detected only if hot-connected. From cold boot I get the unsuccesful device enumeration in device manager (no excclamation marks).
What do you think?
Edit: it seems drivers related, no issues with Win 10 stock drivers…
@ Boru:
Welcome at Win-RAID Forum and thanks for the info regarding the latest Intel USB 3.0 drivers and the link to the Station-Drivers page.
@ all:
Update of the Start Post
Changelog:
@Fernando , my thanks to you for keeping these packages updated.
i have checked the first post for links to the modded 32/64bit Intel USB 3.0 Drivers v4.0.2.42 mod+signed files, but they’re still not updated.
edit: my apology 
i totally forgot about time gap sorry.
Hi Fernando,
are there any real world advantages in using Intel USB 3.0 drivers on Windows 10? Does speed or reliability improve with Intel over Microsoft?
I am asking because I see no reason for Intel not to make improvements available on latest hardware and software.
@ rewben:
Welcome at Win-RAID Forum!
Yes, I hope, that I will be able to present the mod&signed variants of these new drivers this evening or tomorrow.

You should find it out yourself.
Some users reported about a noticeable USB 3.0 performance boost after having installed the Intel drivers.
I have no idea why Intel doesn’t offer their USB 3.0 drivers for Win8/10.
Hi there,
I installed your modded Intel 3.0 drivers, because my Device Manager says: "Code 10: This device cannot start" with the USB xHCI device, and the USB3 ports are working as USB2.
Installation was succesfull, but I still get the same message. Any idea what could be the culprit?
I am using a fresh install of Win10 Pro, on a Clevo W650SZ laptop.

Welcome at Win-RAID Forum!
This happened already before you tried to install my modded drivers?
If yes, this indicates an uncomplete or faulty installation of the Win10 in-box USB 3.0 drivers. If a reboot doesn’t solve the problem, you can try to uninstall the related device from withijn the Device Manager and to reboot again.
Thanks!
Yes, it happened after I updated from Win7 Ultimate x64 to Win10 Pro x64. Then I used Media Creation Tool and did a clean install of Win10 Pro x64. I have uninstalled / reinstalled / rebooted many times now, but the error still remains.
I added your digital signature, went to Device Manager > xHCI update driver > select manually > go to your iusb3xhc.inf and succesfully installed the driver (also the hub driver and switch driver).
I feel like I tried everything right about now, ha…
btw, When I install the hub driver as step 2, that one gets a code 10 as well.
EDIT by Fernando: Unneeded parts of the quoted text removed (to save space)
Does that mean, that the Intel USB 3.0 Controller still doesn’t work correctly?
Are there any yellow flags within the Device Manager?

Open the Device Manager, right click onto the Intel USB 3.0 devices and uninstall them all - one after the other.
Then reboot and look, what happens.
It returns to the same after removal of all devices and reboot.
I have tried to install the last version x64 bits of Intel modded USB 3.0 driver to replace the native USB 3.0 MS driver on my Asus x99, W10 x64.
Unfortunatly I does not succeed.
I got no error message when install, but after updating part 1 , then part 2, then reboot I observe that the MS driver remains and i does not see any appearance of the installed new modded in device manager panel.
All seems the modded driver is "ignored".
The Intel USB 3.0 MS is still working properly.
You should switch to the default MS in-box USB 3.0 driver.
It doesn’t make sense to get the modded Intel driver installed, when not even the default MS driver works.
This issue may be caused by the fact, that I have used a new certificate while giving the drivers a digital signature.
Maybe it would have been better to use the old certificate, which was created at home with my normal computer. Actually I have to use my laptop.
After having seen your reports, I just have installed the latest mod+signed Intel USB 3.0 drivers v4.0.2.42 onto my Surface Pro 3 laptop running Win10 x64 Pro.
Result: They are working fine.
Look here:
I’m new to this great forum. Installed the modded drivers on my Z77 system. Did the certificate installation procedure first with the .cat files. Working perfect. Thanks a lot Fernando
