TIPS :

If you want to manage the drivers (remove old/unused drivers for example) that you have in your Windows DriverStore
Use Driver Store Explorer (Right click on "Rapr.exe" > Run as administrator).

If you want better interrupts delivery latency
Enable MSI (Message Signaled-based Interrupts) mode on all your supported devices (see the column "supported modes") with
MSI Mode Utility (Right click on "MSI_util_v3.exe" > Run as administrator).

which driver is for Intel BlueTooth Device ID USB\VID_8087&PID_0AAA? I'm guessing it's "Drivers - 8xxx : 21.90.0.4 WHQL [02/04/2020]". If I'm correct ASUS support page for my Z390 Maximus XI Extreme, has Intel BlueTooth v21.90.2.1 [2020/06/09] which is more up to date. Can someone point me in the right direction, please.

EDIT:

I checked the inf files for the Intel BlueTooth drivers and this is what I found by Device ID of all 3 drivers:

USB\VID_8087&PID_0A2B&REV_0001 Drivers - 8xxx : 21.90.0.4 WHQL [02/04/2020]


USB\VID_8087&PID_0025&REV_0001 Drivers - 9xxx/AX2xx : 21.90.2.1 WHQL [22/04/2020]
USB\VID_8087&PID_0025&REV_0002 Drivers - 9xxx/AX2xx : 21.90.2.1 WHQL [22/04/2020]


USB\VID_8087&PID_0A2A Drivers - 3xxx/7xxx : 20.100.6.4 WHQL [03/10/2019]

So it appears that none of those BT drivers are for my Z390 Maximus XI Extreme Intel BT device.

Hi,

To find out which one is suitable for your motherboard, you need to look in your motherboard specifications :

You have a Intel I219-V (1.0GbE) Ethernet controller (you can also get this information from your Device Manager), so you need this one :

- Intel Ethernet Drivers (Drivers Only) :

Drivers - I21x-V (1.0GbE) : 12.18.9.23 WHQL [20/04/2020]
Download - I21x-V (1.0GbE) : Link

Install/Update Process :

I21x-V (1.0GbE) : Right click on "e1d68x64.inf" > Install > Wait for the message "The operation completed successfully" or for restart request

Mokichu, thanks again for the help, but when I right click on the file e1d68x64.inf and select install, nothing happens
