    I did a clean install for the first time, everything went fairly well, thanks to the guides on this forum. The only driver I was unable to install was the Local Manageability Service and Serial Over LAN (Intel AMT 4.0). Every time I try to install this driver I get the following error message "This computer does not meet the minimum requirements for installing the software. Both Management Engine Interface (Intel AMT 4.0) and Management Engine (ME) Firmware (Intel AMT 4.1) drivers installed correctly but for some reason Local Manageability Service and Serial Over LAN (Intel AMT 4.0) wont. Should I be concerned? Is this necessary? Will my performance or functionality be affected? I have noticed any problems yet but maybe I'm missing something.

    Thanks in advance for you time.

    No, you don't need that driver, it's mainly for companies who want to maintain their systems remotely.
