I have a 990FX Chipset motherboard but downloaded the X570 Chipset to see if it will install or not.
Actually, I was trying to locate the Installation .INI file to see if something in there was causing the issue. But this version doesn't use an .INI file after I extracted the AMD CHIPSET.exe file using 7zip.
I remember a couple of years ago, The Chipset was not installing and AMDMATT found that by altering a couple of lines in the .INI file fixed the issue. I thought this would be similar until I found out it doesn't have an INI file. At least one that is visible.
So, I decided to installed the X570 Chipset. The worst, I figured, will be an error saying the X570 Chipset isn't compatible with my 990FX Motherboard. Plus I could always do a Restore Point or restore a System Backup if my computer bricks or Windows has problems.
But to my surprise, it ran without any problem and it showed it updated my AMD SMBUS to the one everyone else has. But like everyone else it showed 0% being installed.
I clicked on the Installation logs once it finished installing the Chipset and it showed this as its final entry:

After I rebooted, My computer booted into Windows without any issues. I then downloaded the correct 990FX CHIPSET and ran that.
While it was installing, it showed a progress bar moving as it installed a USB Filter driver. It reached about 30% of the length of the progress bar before changing the image to tell me the driver was installed successfully. Unfortunately, no Installation log was shown.
I believe if everyone turned in their Installation logs to the Moderators they might be able to see what the problem is. Mine was quite detailed and long.
I agree with Billy72 that it is a bug in showing the progress of the installation but the actual installation is installing correctly as per the Installation log.
This log appears after the Chipset is successfully installed. My old 990FX showed the progress bar working normally, no bug.
