Clevo P870DM/DM-G Drivers Mirror

Unfortunately, the CLEVO servers suck big time, you'd be lucky if you were able to complete a download and even if you did, you may or may not be able to successfully extract the zip file.

Example of how long a single download takes on my 100 MBPS connection:

I have spent a lot of time downloading and testing these drivers so I have uploaded them for you on Media Fire.

Below are the links and their recommended installation order.

Note 1: Go to Control Panel > Administrative Tools then right click on Services and send it to the desktop as a shortcut. Reason being, it is best to have the Windows Driver Foundation set to Automatic rather than manual during the drivers installation. After we are done with everything, set it back to manual.

What I recommend you to do is after every restart, double click on that Services shortcut that we created on the desktop and double check that the Windows Driver Foundation has not been set back to manual. Some drivers set it back to manual for example, the Fingerprint scanner, the moment you install it and reboot, the service would be set back to manual.

Failure to have the Windows Driver Foundation driver may result in some drivers not properly being installed.

Note 2: When asked to reboot, for the love of God you have a super fast system, follow the instructions and reboot it would only take a few seconds. do not take any shortcuts, I personally reboot after every driver installation whether or not I was asked to reboot by the driver and/or Windows itself.

Windows 10 Drivers:

1) Intel Chipset Software v10.1.1.32

2) nVIDIA GeForce Drivers v10.18.13.6883 (If you have an SLI system, after the installation is complete go to the nVIDIA Control Panel and enable SLI mode selecting AUTO as your PhysX Processor then apply and reboot once it asks you to)

3) LAN Killer e2400 Driver v9.0.0.37 (go to device manager, then right click on the ethernet controller(s), then choose Update Driver Software, then manually browse to the folder which you extracted

Then do the same for the 2nd Ethernet Card. This way we have the driver installed but without the problematic Bandwidth Control tools that are available in the full suite.)

4) Realtek S5250 Card Reader Driver v10.0.10586.21288

5) Synaptics Touchpad Driver v19.3.4.14

6) Airplane Driver v1.4.0.3

7) Control Center AP v5.0001.0.50 (AKA Hotkey Driver)

8) Intel Management Engine Interface Driver v11.0.6.1194

New Note: After downloading the ZIP file and extracting it, I advice you to go into the MEI-Only Installer MSI folder as that will only install MEI without the other junk as shown below.

After IME has been installed, it automatically installs Intel Security Assist which is useless to the average consumer, so just head over to Control Panel > Programs & Features then uninstall it.
