The Mobile Intel(R) Processor Family IO PCI Express Root Port 6 - 9D15 is part of the Intel chipset drivers for systems using Intel processors. Specifically, this is a PCI Express Root Port driver for the I/O Controller Hub (ICH) that manages communication between the processor and various peripheral components in the system, such as graphics cards, network adapters, and storage devices.
In simpler terms, this driver ensures that your computer's PCIe (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express) slots function correctly, allowing communication between the CPU and devices connected via PCIe (like GPUs, network cards, etc.). It's often part of the larger Intel Chipset Software Installation Utility, which helps to install drivers and software for various Intel chipset components.
The driver for this device is usually included in the Intel Chipset Driver package. You can download the required driver package from the official Intel website.
Steps to download:
.exe
file).Alternatively, if you have a laptop or desktop from a specific manufacturer (e.g., Dell, HP, Lenovo), you can go to their support website and download the chipset drivers specifically for your laptop model, as manufacturers may provide custom versions optimized for their hardware.
Once you've downloaded the driver package, follow these steps to install the driver:
Run the Installer: Locate the downloaded .exe
file (e.g., SetupChipset.exe
) and double-click it to run the installer.
Follow the Installation Wizard:
Restart Your Computer:
Device Manager:
Windows + X
and select Device Manager.Intel Driver & Support Assistant: You can also download and run the Intel Driver & Support Assistant
Reinstall the Driver: Sometimes the initial installation can fail. Simply uninstall the driver and reinstall it:
Use Intel's Driver & Support Assistant:Driver & Support Assistant tool to detect and recommend the correct drivers for your system.
Check for Conflicting Drivers: Occasionally, outdated or conflicting drivers can cause issues. Make sure all chipset-related drivers are up to date.
Update BIOS/UEFI:
After installing the driver, ensure that all devices connected via PCIe (like graphics cards or network cards) are functioning properly. If you are having issues with a specific PCIe device, the problem may lie with that device or its own drivers, not just the PCI Express Root Port driver.
