In the process of downloading and installing the updated drivers for my P8Z77 and I am having problems with the (NVM Update Utility for Intel 82579V Gigabit Ethernet PHY Network Connection), so I can download and install the Intel LAN Driver V17.3.0.0.



Can you explain the command line thing that they are talking about? I get a message to the effect that what I enter in the command prompt is not in command format.



If anyone could spell it out for me I would appreciate it..



This is the read me file, not sure how to do this........

Solution
You need to navigate to where the file is saved and type in the file name to execute it. For example if it is saved in downloads and the file name is 82579VSKU.exe you would type the following at a command prompt:
cd\users\yourusername\downloads (press enter)
82579VSKU.exe (press enter)
