Hello All!

If its name was NorthBridge Drivers, I would understand.

What does 'filter' drivers mean?

I myself have no idea since I don't do AMD (if it even has anything to do with AMD) but you might help others by posting a screen shot of what you're talking about.

Good luck.

This is what AMD calls its NB drivers.
I can't give you a screen-shot because it shows up on the installation screen. Oops! Wrong...
It calls them: NorthBridge Filter Drivers (?!!)

I'm just an old, confused man...
What the heck is 'filter'?

TIA
