Where to find ASUS M4N68T-M-V2 chipset files?


I've been trying to migrate my HP2000 Windows 7 OS to a new machine with an Asus M4N68T-M-V2 motherboard using Acronis Universal Restore. I've done this operation successfully on other configurations before. I'm getting an error whereby Acronis wants me to provide the driver PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_30F1&SUBSYS_83A41043&REV_A3, which I can locate NOWHERE.

I've downloaded NVIDIA_Chipset_v1556_WYVista64.zip from ASUS for this M4N68T-M-V2 motherboard. I unzipped the archive and put it onto a USB flash drive. When I booted Universal Restore, I both specified the overall folder and under "driver", pointed to the IDE subfolder. Of note, when I selected the IDE folder, nothing showed under that folder, so I suspect that, despite the name of the archive, this may not have actual chipsets. The folders are all full of .ddl, .info, .ini files and it very much looks like something that actually needs to be run on a live system. Do chipset files have a specific file type?

If this is not really a chipset archive, does anyone know where I can get the actual chipset drivers for this motherboard?

If I can't find the chipset files, or the PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_30F1&SUBSYS_83A41043&REV_A3 driver. I'll have to abandon this project

You can also download the chipset driver from the Nvidia homepage: version 15.49.

I think that's basically the same as I did, but version 15.49 rather than 15.56.

Anyway, problem not really solved, but I gave up and got a different motherboard: ASRock 970M Pro3. That's my "solution".
