Are you experiencing issues with your Intel device?

More often than not, Intel device errors are caused by driver-related issues.

Before we discuss the steps that must be performed to fix driver-related issues, let us first check out why driver-related issues occur and how to identify if a hardware problem is being caused by driver-related issues.

You may experience issues with your Intel drivers if:

• You are using outdated, old Intel drivers
• You have not installed any drivers for your Intel device
• The installed Intel drivers have been deleted or have become corrupt

How to check if the error is due to a driver problem

You can use Device Manager to check if a hardware problem is being caused by driver-related issues or not.

To access Device Manager on Windows 7 and Windows Vista, perform the following two steps:

1. Click the Windows icon in the taskbar

To access Device Manager on Windows XP and older versions, perform the following steps:

2. In the Open box type devmgmt.msc, and then press Enter

Once you have opened the Device Manager window, double-click the hardware device typethat is giving you trouble to view all the hardware devices listed under it. If you find a yellow triangle, question mark, or an exclamation mark against the Intel device, it means the problem is due to driver-related issues.
