SM Bus Controller Driver for Hewlett-Packard - HP Compaq 8200 Elite SFF PC working on Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard. Device Name: SM Bus Controller. Where can I find a SM Bus Controller driver? My computer is not recognising my usb memory sticks and I am told that the problem is that under device manager the SM Bus Controller is showing that it does not have a driver and this is the answer. And presumably under warranty, I recommend you contact HP technical support for further.
Hello there .. I'm pleased to have found a great Vista resource like this online, although I wish I didn't have to search you guys out on annoying negative terms like this: So here's my issue. It's pretty self explanitory:
I redid Vista and in my device manager, I'm getting two issues. One is my Coprocessor. It can't find the drivers for this.. Also it's having trouble with the 'SM Bus Controller' driver. What exactly can I do to fix these two issues? This is a custom build so I don't have the luxury of having a restore disc or anything like this, which seems to be the common fix for this issue around the net. None of the other suggestions from the site have worked so far. So, any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
PS - In case you need my stats: AMD Phenom x4 9600, Nvidia Geforce 8800GT, Biostar T-Force 8200 mobo, OCZ Platinum DDR2 1066 RAM, Western Digital Caviar 250 GB HD, 550W Rosewill PSU.
