you could have better luck to force to install the inf files, which the file you download from ASUS actually installs so that all devices in Device Manager>System devices are recognized correctly by windows [it removes Unknown Device" in most situations].
II recommend to download the chipset software files, from here:
https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/03CHIPSET/Intel_Management_Engine_Interface.zip Then unzip the file you downloaded "Intel_Management_Engine_Interface.zip" to a folder on your C drive that you create e.g., C:\inf
Once you unzip the files to that folder there will be a file called "AsusSetup.exe" among others. Next open the Run box by clicking the Windows key + R and type the following command:
C:\nf\AsusSetup.exe -overall
You can instead run the above "switch" command in a elevated Dos terminal.
If this does not work then I would download the latest Chipset software file from intel.com, and follow the above instructions on the file from intel. The reason i suggest this is because ASUS have altered the installation routine for the original file they get from intel, and might interfere with the -overall switch.
If you do decide to use the latest chipset software file from intel follow the above instructions and if you go the dos terminal rout, make sure to first change directory to where you unzipped the files e.g., at the dos prompt type [per my example]:
cd c:\inf
