How mentioned in the subject I can't install the intel me driver from the driver cd nor the newest version from the evga site, it exits the installation process with the message "the system doesn't meet the requirements". Any solutions?
 
On the other side i don't get the bios flash tool to do it's work and it quits with "Error 284: Fail to load driver (PCI access for Windows).
Tool needs to run with an administrator priviledge account." and "PMXUtil: Error during PMX Call: idrvdll.dll!IDRVInit(): Failed VerAddVersion() call". The tool is run as administrator (->run as adm from the right click menu, same error if run as user "SYSTEM" and with the "real" administrator account), so the question is could this be caused through the missing intel me driver? The flash by usb way isn't possible cause of a missing usb storage device. :x
 
The next (and last) thing is that for the Corsair Dominator Platinum 1866 (2x8gb) is no xmp profile present (xmp 1 & 2 not supported) and there should be one, may this be caused through the bios version?
 
I'm thankful for every help!

    I would go into bios and load default settings save and reset.  Then download the latest bios from EVGA bios 1.21 to your desktop  http://www.evga.com/suppo...oad/default.aspx 
    Then install it from windows, some will tell you to only do a bios update with a boot flash drive. I have never had any problems flashing bios from windows. Read these directions then choose the correct file to flash with.

    Thanks for your fast reply but this is what I actually try and it fails =/
    I also swapped from Bios1 to Bios3 - after this the Intel ME driver could be installed and the xmp profile became usable...

    I would set memory timings & voltage manually in the bios. The memory manufacturer's web site should list the specs for your memory.
