[SOLVED] BSOD Dump + System File Collection App - where do I find chipset driver version?

[Shplad]

Hi everyone:

As the title suggests, when trying to troubleshoot, I never know where to find
chipset driver versions. I'd prefer not to have open huge system log dumps.

Is there a quick/easy place to find the chipset driver version?

Is this for an assignment in the BSOD Academy?

Nope, I'm on that other forum "BP. But John has been helping
me here and there.

For details like what you are looking for I prefer to use the msinfo32. It gives you that information without searching much. It does require from you that you become familiar so that you know where to find things in msinfo32.

What you are looking for will be in the Components section under storage.

You can also use other files from the sysnative files, but then you probably will need to know the name of the driver.

I just checked on my own machine and it's not under there.
Maybe you're thinking of somewhere else?

It is there. Intel chipset drivers, for example, are in msinfo32 > components > storage > ide typically. Note that it is driverS, there are multiple drivers involved.

Yes, it's under IDE driver. Thanks.
