IRST? Gaming Mouse Utility? To install or not install?

That is the question! :confused: (Hopefully you all got the Shakespeare reference)

But in all seriousness, IRST apparently is some storage software for RAID harddrives; is it actually useful or just crap that I won't really use? While we are on that topic, how can I tell my harddrives are RAID or not? Though then again, if it is available to me via the Asus Notebook PC eDriver thingy, then I probably have RAID. But yeah. :S

Also, the Gaming Mouse Utility - a must or a bust? I mean, right now, it works fine, has a driver installed, and I customized the main buttons, but the extra two buttons seem to be uncustomizable unless I install the utility. :S

I can't tell if it's GX800 or not. :S Doesn't say. But yeah, I should install the utility. What about IRST?

Okay, so I installed IRST through the eDriver software in Asus Tools. Then I open Intel SSD Toolbox, and it says that DIPM is not supported (whereas before, it was supported). How do I remove IRST? 😕 It doesn't even show up in Add/Remove Programs (or in CCleaner, for that matter).

EDIT: Nvm - used system restore.

The thing is, when I installed the driver, Intel SSD Toolbox said that DIPM became unsupported because of the driver, so I wanted to remove it. On top of that, I couldn't remove it in the conventional way because it was unlisted, even in CCleaner, so I just restored to earlier that day when I install the mouse utility thing.

And no - it wasn't even in All Programs, so I couldn't even activate it. 😕
