How to fix PCI Simple Communication Controller error Acer Aspire 5745G after reinstalling Windows 10

Denis5745 · January 22

Hello,

I have an old laptop Acer Aspire 5745G

I was obliged to reinstall Windows on it and I'm still getting the error for PCI Simple Communication Controller

Official Acer website is not providing any drivers for my model.

Where can I download the respective driver for Windows 10?

Hello, you cannot install Windows10 anymore as Microsoft won't activate upgrades from OEM Windows7 OS. This 2010 W7 laptop is no longer supported by Acer or Microsoft, best to continue with the OS you have now or install a Linux OS.

Thank you.

I've managed to install Windows 10 already, and even Video driver also installed successfully (I had it on my hard drive). The only issue is with PCI Simple Communication Controller. There are definitely drivers for this.
