Hi, your question about varying file sizes for motherboard drivers is interesting. These differences often come from how drivers are packaged over time—some versions might be smaller while others are larger. It’s possible newer drivers use more data but compress it into a smaller file, or older ones might omit certain details. Installing only the latest drivers shouldn’t always work; sometimes you need to install previous versions first to get full functionality.

That's a good question. I'm curious about the same thing too.

It's a valid concern, but the read me file didn't explicitly warn against installing the newest version.

No, you don't install the previous versions afterward. That's not how it works.
