Anybody knows why I don't have this on my device manager?

As the title says, anybody knows how to bring this "Firmware" on my device manager? I'm running out of ideas

Below photo isn't mine.

Anyone on Windows 10 Version 1511 (Build 10586.36) too?

 

View > Show Hidden Devices

 

Tried that and this "Set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1" to no avail.

Thanks though

Any more suggestion is welcome.

 

You have to right click on the subcategory " System Firmware" and choose update driver and then the system flashes the BIOS - takes awhile. I tried initially to double click System Firmware and do update driver from there - didn't work.

I have Windows 10 Pro Version 1511 (Build 10586.36)

 

This is how my device manager looks like

 

That is odd - my system has always had "Firmware" right after Display adapters. I have no idea why that isn't there - we have the same version of Windows.

 

Some possibilities, you need windows 10 pro?

Or hit F12 on reboot, and check your bios, i think there is a option to enable firmware updates through windows. the very last one IIRC.

 

Mind checking your Windows version and build? This is one possible reason

My machine came with the previous version/build and it has the "firmware" on device manager

EDIT: I'm currently on Windows 10 Version 1511 (Build 10586.36)

EDIT 2: Also. did you wipe your drive clean (removing all partitions) before doing the clean install?

 

That is odd - my system has always had "Firmware" right after Display adapters. I have no idea why that isn't there -

Look at my previous post - I have the same version and build of Windows as you do - it is also Windows 10 PRO.
Recently I had what I thought were driver issues with getting a couple of USB drives to download large video files so I did a system reset and Windows was reinstalled and went right to Pro - all windows updates were installed automatically during the process. (It didn't fix the external drive issue however - that is related to GTechnology drives). I didn't do anything about partitions - I just used the option to proceed and not retain my personal files.

 

Did you re-enabled the Legacy mode after clean install?

 

I never fool around with Legacy mode - just checked my BIOS - it is UEFI all the way.

Alright. That 850MB partition might have something to do with this then. I'll try to go back to original OS then reinstall like you did. Wish I can install Win 7 on this machine instead.

 

Under disk management for C drive I have 500 MB (EFI System) then my main partition then 852MB Recovery partition and finally 11.66 GB Recovery Partition.

 

I never use Legacy mode - not sure what it's for except for compatibility with some older systems

 

Alright. Thanks for taking the time to check.
