    Hi there people,

    I recently got my new p870TM-1 and im already in love with it.

    I've been a ghost on this forum in recent times (simply cause just reading the forums gave me more than enough information for what i needed). But now I could use some assistance

    I've read about the issues with intel management engine interface - My laptop is vulnerable (which i was a bit surprised at as i would of though HID would install the new drivers which remove the vulnerability).

    I have seen that prema had made a post about the security flaw but I could not find which specific driver version I needed to remove the security flaw.

    Could someone point me in the right direction? and as i am removing some apps etc are there any apps / programs people suggest I remove from win10?


    Much appreciated and I hope to chat to y'all soon about this beast :D


    Specs: standard p870tm1 8700k 1080gtx (vapour)

    Thanks for the quick reply! I've been there and ran the tool. It then says to contact manufacturer (unless im being a fool as I dont see clevo or sager in the list of manufacturers below the tool). I've also contacted HID to see if they know which I should install

    Ahh, my bad. I know that there was supposed to be some sorta firmware update, but honestly, probably only HID should/can give you that. Its mot really a big deal to be honest, so a slight delay from waiting on HID shouldnt be too bad.
