Common Issues and Fixes

• Chipset installer fails on Windows 10/11: AMD 990X/SB950 packages are legacy. Run setup as administrator in Windows 7 compatibility mode, or install the INF/SATA drivers manually via Device Manager. Ensure .NET 4.x and Visual C++ runtimes are installed.
• LAN/audio device not detected after reinstall: confirm Realtek RTL8111E/ALC889 are enabled in BIOS, then install the matching Realtek drivers. Avoid accepting a generic Windows HD Audio driver first; use Device Manager > Update driver > Browse to the extracted package.
• Version conflicts or BSODs after updating: roll back to the Gigabyte-listed driver for your board revision, remove newer AMD/Realtek packages, reboot, then install chipset before LAN/audio. Check board rev 1.0/1.1/1.2 and BIOS version before downloading.
