Hi Gordon,

Host

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community Forums. We are here to assist you with the issues with Windows.

As per the description, you are trying to upgrade to Windows 8 from Windows 7 and the Windows upgrade assistant still says that you need to uninstall the Intel USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller Driver to continue with the Windows Setup even after uninstalling it from the computer.

I would like to ask you a few questions on this:

1)Did you uninstall the drivers from “Programs and Features” in Control Panel?

2)Is the “Intel USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller Driver” still shown in the Device Manager?

If you are able to find the entry for “Intel USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller Driver” in the Device Manager, then I would suggest you to uninstall the driver from the Device Manager as well and check if you are able to continue with the Windows Setup.

You do not need to worry about uninstalling this driver as Windows 8 has native in-box USB 3.0 driver which is automatically installed while upgrading to Windows 8.
