    select your OS and then download Intel chipset drivers, they contains SMBus driver.

    can you double click the SMBUS, select details tab and scroll down to hardwareID, select the first string and copy/paste here?

    ok, the driver is inside the Intel chipset package, you had to install the driver manually.

     

    double click on the SMBus, choose to install/update the driver and you need to browse to the patch of the folder extraction.

     

    if you can't find the folder, normally with the Intel drivers there's a little readme.txt where you can find some infos on how extract files to a folder.

    Thanks so much!  Bing an AIX Unix Admin, it is always a challenge to build a windows machine.  There is something to be said for owning the hardware and the OS. :-)

    Thanks again!
