it's common for different computer manufacturers to use the same chips. The increased compatibility with a later version of Windows seems to be the key?įor anyone wondering. The Lenovo WinBond driver (*.inf) seems to be certified for Win8 and 8.1 and is dated The Acer Nuvoton driver (*.inf) is only certified for Win7 and is dated. Here's one reason why the Lenovo driver solutions works on an Acer: so it's not a major issue if it doesn't work. which explains why it misses so many drivers.Īs soon as you install the correct driver (even a very old one) Driver Booster is very useful at finding newer versions.Ĭonsumer Infra Red (CIR) isn't very important to most of us. That would explain why the Winbond driver works but nothing from Intel does?Īlso tried Driver Booster (driver updating software) without any success.ĭriver Booster tends to look only at installed software and doesn't match at the hardware level.
even though it lists most of the Intel hardware (excluding the CIR). It seems to be looking only at existing software installed rather than the hardware on the laptop. The Intel updater failed to find any updates for the hardware. as knowing that allows you to match the driver more easily. Lenovo must either be using the same chip or perhaps the Winbond is a compatible chip?ĭoes anyone know what chipset we're dealing with.
