Hello,

I recently reformatted my computer and went to Device Manager to update my drivers. But I tried to update the ethernet controller and it couldn't find a driver for it! I still have internet and all but will this cause a problem? And if so where can i get the driver for it. I'm also missing SM Bus Controller.

My specs are:

System:
Microsoft Windows XP
Professional
Version 2002
Service Pack 2

Computer:
AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2200+
1.80 GHz, 640 MB of RAM

I got that information from the System spot. I don't know where to look for more information, if you tell me where to look I'll tell you.

Thanks!

Configuration: Windows XP
Firefox 3.5.3

If this is a brand name computer you should be able to visit the manufacturer's web site and download the motherboard drivers. Otherwise, you can get the motherboard model from the BIOS information and go the MB vendor's support site.

Good Luck
