: Windows 10 and 11 typically include these drivers "inbox," meaning they should install automatically once the device is enabled in the BIOS. HP Support Community in your specific computer's BIOS?
The ACPI VEN-MSFT AMP-DEV-0101 device provides the following functions:
: This device is a mandatory system requirement for installing or upgrading to Windows 11. Hardware Integration
