Intel® Server Board S5000VSA
"Base System Device" shows error in Device Manager

Microsoft Windows* Device Manager may show "Base System Device" with a question mark inside a yellow triangle, even after installing drivers.

The 'Base System Device' is one component of Intel® I/O Acceleration Technology, and the installer is included in the Intel® Network On-Board NIC Driver for Microsoft Windows 

Download and unzip the file, and run 
    \apps\PROSETDX\<OS version>\DxSetup.EXE
to install the full package including the PROSET software; or 
    \apps\setup\SETUPBD<OS version>\SetupBD.exe
to only install the NIC driver

You may also manually install the driver by double-clicking the device, and browsing to:
    \platform\IOATDMA\Win32\ioatdma.inf for 32-bit Windows*, or
    \platform\IOATDMA\Winx64 for 64-bit versions.

Please note that in driver versions 10.4 and earlier, the full path is
    \platform\IOATDMA\WS03\ioatdma.inf for 32-bit Windows*, or
    \platform\IOATDMA\WS3XPx64 for 64-bit.
