Driver question [View all]

I got a new Lenovo laptop, which has it's own system checker. It's Windows 7, because I'm just not ready for anything else. I updated Windows today, 140 updates. The system checker then said Intel Technology Access Filter Driver isn't installed and can't be updated.

I think the driver has something to do with Plug and Play, but I'm confused. Does anyone know off the top of their head if I need this driver? The only things I plug into the laptop are a thumb drive for file back-up and I'm buying a DVD burner. I'm pretty sure both of them are Plug and Play. Thanks.

On edit, the DVD burner is NOT Plug and Play, it comes with software.

Plug and play just means the OS will recognize the hardware and install the driver. hobbit709 Oct 2015 #2
