Windows 10: Intel-related network adapter driver issue

Having problems to connect to the internet, I found in Device Manager that a certain Intel ICH10 R BM LM Ethernet Controller RTX64 network adapter is marked with the yellow exclamation, indicating the device driver is corrupted or missing, which is confirmed by the troubleshooter.





Since the option to revert is missing, I tried to update the driver, but Windows says I have the best already installed. Then I did all the basic steps to try to fix the issue, like disabling/uninstalling the driver, even Network reset, TNA.

From Intel's website I installed and ran its Driver & Support Assistant, which reported: "Sorry, we didn't find any supported Intel drivers or software."

The details of that network adapter driver say its manufacturer is IntervalZero, of which I've never heard before. I went to their website seeking for solutions, but couldn't find any. So I wrote them about the issue, two days passed and I still got no answer from them.

I decided to come here to ask for your help, because I absolutely don't know what I can do to make that driver work again or how to replace it. TIA.
