Glad someone else found my experience helpful!
I've installed quite a few updates on my system since July without the issue re-occuring; that said, I'm sure it's only a matter of time until...
Thanks! But I wonder if this is required? I installed the July 2018 Cumulative Update; it did not update/overwrite the 1709 driver. Perhaps only a major update would (attempt to) do so?
Intel basically said that, due to the age of my PC's processor, they are under no obligation to further research this issue nor to help resolve it.
So it looks like I'll just have to keep using...
I posted a message on the Intel Communities forum.
I rebooted the system; it continues to work well; i.e, it didn't uninstall or even complain about the unsigned SATA driver. So I'm probably OK using it for now. Presumably, however, Windows will try...
Thanks so much for continuing to help with this. Sorry for the delay; I was out of town longer than I anticipated.
I double-checked my 1803; there is no Standard Controller SATA AHCI manufacturer...
Option 1: When I uncheck “Show compatible hardware” and then select Microsoft as the manufacturer, the choices are limited; I don’t see a Microsoft default SATA driver....
Thanks. Here's 1709 Device Manager

After two hours of watching DriverMax's animated progress bar as it attempted to restore the driver, I closed the app, rebooted, but saw no improvement with the latency issue.
I noticed that 1803...
I booted into 1803 and then used DriverMax to attempt to restore 1709's "Intel(R) Desktop/Workstation/Server Express Chipset SATA RAID Controller". It's been saying it's restoring for about 20...
Thanks. If I understand your posts correctly, you're suggesting I boot into 1803 and then replace (according to your screenshots) the "Intel Chipset SATA RAID Controller" with 1709's "Intel(R)...
Here's a link to the compressed UIforETW log from 1709. It's considerably smaller than the one for 1803. Not sure why that is. I ran the trace for about 10 seconds for both 1803 and 1709.
My BIOS'...
Thanks for chiming in. I used UIforETW, performed a trace (with the default settings), and compressed the ETL log. Here's a link to the compressed file.
I've attached the report from LatencyMon. The text (as well as the Drivers and CPUs tabs within the app) indicate storport.sys to be the culprit. I researched that file initially but didn’t find...
I think Windows hung after I earlier restored all the 1709 drivers. I'll try again. If it still hangs, I suppose it still makes sense to try restoring only some of the drivers, as you suggest.
Do the 11/37 directories DriverMax backed up in 1709 correspond to the low-level drivers? i.e., especially the directories 1394, HIDClass, System, USB
I have a Dell Latitude laptop that overheats on Windows 10. I gave up trying to resolve that issue. This desktop PC, however, is my go-to device at home. It's an i7 with 20GB of RAM. With the newer...
I installed VLC and then booted into Safe Mode. MP4 files play but the interruption/buzz is still present.
No issues when I revert to 1709.
My PC is a Dell Studio XPS 435MT. I wouldn't be...
I booted into Safe Mode on my clean 1803 install. I'm limited in what I can do in the way of playing media files: attempting to play MP3 files generates "File system error (-2147219195)"; attempting...
I've not had much success with driver update tools in the past -- but I'm nearing my wits' end so thought it was worth a try. It has a 30-day money-back guarantee -- so if doesn't help I'll request a...
I didn't find Drivermax and DriverBackup to be very helpful; their UIs and features were also ambiguous. After reading numerous driver utility reviews, I ended up installing/registering/purchasing...
Thanks! I didn't have a chance to work on this yesterday but will research using these tools later today.
If/when I identify the problem driver and then restore an older copy of it I'll need to...
Thanks for the continued dialog!
D'oh! I opened the command prompt while logged on with an admin account but neglected to elevate it. I'll do that.
Wow, you list about 75 folders! Assuming I...
