[Outdated] USB 3.0/3.1 Drivers (original and modded)

@BetaTester :
Thanks for your report. It is fine, that you were able to get my latest mod+signed Intel USB 3.0 drivers properly installed.
Regarding the “UCSI USB Connector Manager” I recommend again to do a right click onto it and to choose the option “Uninstall device”. If the device comes up again after the reboot, try to update its driver by choosing the options “Update driver”
> “Search automaticly…”. Maybe Windows Update has a suitable driver for that device.

After seeing 100PIER BM results it got me thinking, I never to bother to test USB ports and got some weird results (maybe normal as I don’t/never tested before.
What I did was use a ADATA USB3.1 stick (UV128/32GB) in each port
So results are from back panel I/O Intel controller (Win10 MS driver), back panel I/O again ASMedia usb3 (1.16.41.3) and last front panel of case, goes to a ASMedia usb3.0 internal plug (P8Z77V Pro has Intel and ASMdedia usb3 internal plugs)
I get lower results on front panel even though both are ASMedai controller (I double check device manger , view by connection" that they are using right USB3 controller and not usb2.
Anyway, results below:

Just curious if anyone else gets similar results

Edit: I feel dumb, should of ran multiple passes, ran front one again an all good (results are pretty random from this stick):

Finally, USB works, and I can fully use my new PC :slight_smile:

I wonder if those intel guys ever copied some files over USB… it’s a mess with the standard driver on Windows 10. Disconnects, or if powermanagement is adjustet, it simply hangs when copying.

@Controller :
Welcome to the Win-RAID Forum and thanks for your feedback!

Hello.
I downloaded your drivers and installed them…
Everything is ok
Thank you for your awesome work.
Please continue the good work!!!

Just for your information:
Before the installation I had a lot of problems with an external seagate hard drive 4tb
After the installation of your moded drivers everything is perfect
Thank you:)

Hello i seem to have a problem with the certificate the driver works well when i disable driver signature but when its on it sayw that the is a problem with the signature.I tried installing the certificate again and it says that it is already there.Windows 10 pro system.Any solution?

@Anaxagoras :
About which driver are you talking and how did you install it?
Did you import the Certificate before starting to install the driver? If yes, did you get the OS message, that the Certificate had been successfully imported?
How do you disable the driver’s signature?

The latest intel usb 3.0/3.1 driver.I had an older driver from this forum and i tried to install the latest again from this forum but it says that the windows cant allow the signature cause something is wrong.The message said that the certificate was already in the computer,i restarted holding shift and in start up settings i used number 7 to disable the force driver signature.Sorry about my english.@Fernando

@Anaxagoras :
When you open the Device Manager and look for the currently running driver of the Intel USB 3.0 Controller, which message do you get regarding its digital signature?

So you didn’t disable the digital signature of the driver, but just forced the usage of a driver, whose digital signature hasn’t been accepted by the OS.

I am very sorry i just did a reinstallation and it worked…

@Anaxagoras :
Thanks for your feedback! It is fine, that the driver works now as it should.

It has now to be tested, whether the old ASMedia USB 3.0/3.1 drivers v1.16.41.3 are still better than the newest v1.16.51.1 drivers. If not, I will remove the old drivers from the start post.
Please give me your feedback!

@Fernando ,
ASMedia USB 3.0/3.1: The Dpinst64 option (as administrator) (pure driver) does not work on a W10 RS3 x64 FR Home version.
Nothing does happen when trying to update from v1.16.50.1 to v1.16.51.1 , no error message. strange because we can see the job done, however the current driver version does remain in place (and working).
the "have disk" method does work without any problem.

@100PIER :
I cannot confirm your report.
Meanwhile I have tested the DPInst method successfully on 2 different system drives running Win10 x64 v1709 resp. v1803 (Test1: replacement of the generic MS USB 3.0 driver, Test2: update from v1.16.50.1 to v1.16.51.1).
Here is the proof:

@Fernando
I got the same picture as you (on the left), however no change observed. (Z370 machine test)
With the have disk method the update from v1.16.50.1 to v1.16.51.1 is accepted with a message telling that Windows can’t guarantee the support of this new version.

That is really strange. Thanks for your tests and reports!
