Motherboard drivers are a kind of software, and therefore they are subject to all the same problems that affect the work of other kinds of programs. Keep in mind that motherboard drivers may also be damaged for various reasons, such as virus-infected, or obsolete as a result of system upgrades or software changes. Remember that is very important to have exactly the driver that is needed specifically for your hardware motherboard model.
