    Hi everybody ;
    I have an asus laptop x550LB and i can't find out its chipset name (for example Q67 , H61 , H67 or something else ) In device manager , it says intel 8 series chipset
    Can you help me to find out my chipset name please ?

    It possibly the H8x series, it can be H81 or H85. Using 4th Gen (Haswell) CPU?

    :) not sure if it will help you find the right chipset number but as its intel's own program it should do.

    I use chrome too, did all its checks like yours and then nothing! :g: it not even open IE or edge?

    I am still guessing your chipset will be H81 or H85 because it is an earlier model than the x750 it is most likely the H81 type. The two chipsets are very very close.

    @ tefor - Have you tried setting IE or Edge as your default browser and tried it again? You can change it back to Chrome after you obtain the results.
