MSI CR460 Drivers and Details

MSI CR460 series basically use windows 8 or 8.1 as it default operating system. You can also downgrade into Windows 7 since MSI also released drivers and support for Windows 7. The specific model name may varies, example you may own MSI CR460 (MS-145A), regardless of the specific model name, all CR460 series uses the same driver sets.

Changes I made from the original driver list:
1. Arrange the drivers installation in order. So please install according to the order given.
2. Exclude certain utility (which I think not important).
3. I do not listed the driver version because you can see the driver version on the download link itself.
4. If you are using Windows 8.1, just install windows 8 drivers.
