The role of the chipset driver is the support software that makes the chipset work properly. A chipset is a group of chips directly attached to the motherboard, usually second in size to the processor. Is responsible for controlling the system and its functions. The chipset is the hub of all data transmission, through which all components communicate with the processor. The chipset uses a DMA controller and a bus controller to manage the stable transfer of data. The chipset is divided into north and south Bridges, in general, the south bridge is the main management I\/O interface, the north bridge is responsible for communicating with the CPU. The motherboard chipset determines almost all the functions of the motherboard.
Motherboard chipset drivers are mostly bus drivers and some strengthening, do not install then windows can also complete the daily basic calls and drivers, but does not guarantee that you can fully play the performance
