    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.

    after a while , it said "All Done" and "refer back to your browser to see the results"
    But there is nothing on my chrome browser lol , and no new page created by the software

    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.
