"Inventec-LAN,other hardware-Inventec PCIe GBE Family Controller." - What is it about?
I got a message of an optional update for "Inventec-LAN,other
hardware-Inventec PCIe GBE Family Controller." I run Window 8.1 Pro 64-bit. AFAIK, I do not have any Inventec equipment. A Google search led to a page at Microsoft Community http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/i...intp-insider_d evices/just-got-an-update-for-inventec-lan-driver-for-win/516f4f25-931c- 4f1d-aa87-74ce7220ab4b?page=1 with numerous replies, all of which seems to boil down to no one really knows. Some advocate blind trust of Microsoft, one or two note that there may be some relationship between RealTek and Inventec but are not sure. Has anyone seen any current info about it? FWIW, I'll be relegating it to a do not install status, but it's troubling for an update to be pushed down when even Microsoft's "More Information" and "Support Information" links either report "The More information feature is not available yet" or lead to a search page that's useless because I don't even know what the product is that the update is supposed to be for!
