Station drivers lists ENE CIR driver 3.6.0.0 but i can't find any "official" download link. Anyway, it installs fine in case someone needs that driver

• Removed IDT High Definition Audio driver, version 6.10.6393.0.

Some users (including myself) have been experiencing issues with 6.10.6393.0, so I'm removing this for now. The driver constantly caused my laptop to hang, so I had to remove the driver in Safe Mode and then install 6.10.6388.0 once I rebooted.

• Removed Realtek PCIe Gigabit Ethernet Family Controller driver reference for Windows Vista.
• Updated Realtek PCIe Gigabit Ethernet Family Controller driver, version 7.053 for Windows 7.

Z3tor, I'll take a look at what you've found once I have some additional time. I know about the Broadcom Wireless LAN driver update, but I was not sure about posting it since the package also includes the utility.

Hello Z3tor. I haven't been able to get my CIR reciever to work for a while now. I keep getting this status in the Resources tab of the driver:
"Input/Output Range 0380 - 038E used by: Motherboard resources"
(it seems to be a well known message all over the internet)

Do you know if this driver solves that problem?

Thanks !!

Unfortunately it does not fix that problem. I was not aware of such conflict until now. I checked my ENE CIR reciever in Device Manager and looks like I'm having exactly same I/O conflict. Although my remote is working just fine, like it's been since day 1. I looked into release notes, but there's no mention about fixing conflicts..

Release note :
Version : 3.6
Date : 2011-11-15
- Update Setup.exe to v.2.3.4.0.
- Auto-repeat for some special keys.
- Extend timeout detection for NEC protocol.
- Update [enecirhid0201_Parameters.AddReg] section of inf for adding vendor keys.

HP temporarily removed the 6.10.6393.0 IDT Audio driver package from their web site several hours ago but it has been re-posted on their FTP/HTTP download servers.

IDT High Definition Audio driver, versions 6.10.6392.0, 6.10.6393.0 and 6.10.6388.0 all are causing my laptop to freeze at startup.

Went back to 6.10.6351.0 - so far so good.
