I don't know if I am on the right board or not but I am in need of drivers for the ethernet controller and pci simple communications controller for my Acer Aspire 5742-7620.  I checked the Acer website and non of these drivers are offered.  Thanks for your help.

    netlink LAN:

    scroll down to drivers and choose 32 or 64 bit

     

    about the second hardwareID, check with Intel driver update utility:
