Iconfigured the BIOS to enable Thunderbolt, but there were many settings and I have no idea which ones are the correct for the card to work. There were several drivers I tried downloading but apparently the order matters?

I have a x299 WS Server Board and tried to built in an ASUS Thunderbolt ex3 Card to power up my G-TECH SSD Raid. Drivers are up to date, all cables are proper connected, Bios is set correct. Unfortunately my G-Tech doesnt power up anymore. It did once I installed and started everything for the first time. Could run G-Tech Utility and see the drive. After a restart it didnt work anymore up to know (did several restarts). Whats the point?


Yep same with me - it worked a couple times - I needed to change where the card was installed in the bios on my asus x299 deluxe (which seems to have lost complete support by Asus now as the web page for the drivers etc for it has vanished!) from card pcie slot 1 to 4. I have two thunderbolt drives - the samsung x5 ssd and also a g tech 6tb one. both recognised in the software but both never show up in windows. Windows says all latest drivers are installed etc. They show up in Devices and printers though. I am really hoping i dont need to replace the motherboard. I have contacted support so will reply back here if the issue is solved.


I just reinstalled windows 11 on my X299 Deluxe motherboard. The problem is that I have all these "Base System Device" items listed in device manager and I can't find the corresponding drivers. How do I find the current drivers on the intel website? I tried their "Driver Support Assistant" But that didn't list ANY drivers.


Within the last 3 months, I've had to swap out this motherboard with an identical backup motherboard. I've added a new graphics card, and then I update the bios. The system was mostly fine until the bios and all of a sudden things went bad, and quickly. Ultimately, I had to reinstall the OS.


Try -x299-chipset/downloads.html for the chipset driver. It is tagged as being for both Windows 10 and 11. The chipset drivers should be generic, for all X299 boards, i.e. there shouldn't be any concern about PRIME vs ROG, etc.


If you'd rather get it from ASUS, the PRIME X299-DELUXE II Downloads & ROG Rampage VI Extreme Encore Downloads have a more complete set of drivers for Windows 11. The core X299 stuff should be the same for both PRIME and ROG. That ROG board is, I think, one of the newest X299 boards they produced. The driver most likely to be different is the audio driver, so I wouldn't try to use the ROG audio driver on the PRIME board. The other drivers (Intel platform/chipset drivers, LAN, Wifi, Bluetooth, etc) should be the same where your board has the same or similar devices.


Even on the downloads for the newer X299 boards, many of the drivers are a bit outdated and might not be the best thing on 22H2. They might, however, be useful in getting the system up and running, before updating to more current versions. MoKiChU's drivers should be much more up to date (and probably the latest available).
