SM Bus Controller
Hi everyone,
Just completed a clean reinstall of Windows Vista Home Premium Edition SP1 64-bit operating system onto a Dell Studio 540 Desktop with an Intel Core 2 Quad processor Q8200.
Am having a problem with the SM Bus Controller driver. I receive a code 28, drivers not installed, manufacturer is Unknown, Location is PCI bus 0, device 31, function 3.
The hardware ID’s are:
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_3A30&SUBSYS_02AC1028&REV_00
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_3A30&SUBSYS_02AC1028
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_3A30&CC_0C0500
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_3A30&CC__0C050
I have tried running automatic update, but Windows can’t locate driver. Have also tried a reinstall of the drivers from Dell. Am also having difficulty with network driver, so unable to get online with affected computer.
Does anyone have a suggestion?
Thanks for your help.

Sounds like you didn't install the chipset driver, or didn't install it as the very first driver loaded after reinstalling Windows, or it failed to install.
Without the chipset driver, other drivers may not install or may not work...

"PCI\VEN_8086" is INTEL CHIPSET Driver.
