    this is by far the hardest thing i have ever done! i'm use to formatting my computer, and got this one last year. i decided it was time to format and now i'm stuck! i'm missing three driver's ->SM Bus Controller
    ->unknown device
    ->Video Controller (VGA Compatible)
    i've looked high and low, to no avail.
    i'm running windows xp media center addition SP2 (x86)<- if that matters?

    i've downloaded everest and every other friggin' drive finder and nothing. . . i don't even have internet access yet, it won't connect! i'm in a very dill of a pickle. . . HELP!

    Post a make and model # if your PC is manufactured (Dell, Gateway, HP, etc.) or your motherboard ID, if it is a build.
    Use Everest to get a report of your system’s hardware, OS, and drivers. Upload the report as an attachment
    Everest: http://www.majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4181
    When Everest is done scanning, click "Report" at the top of the Everest window, click next to get to "Report Profile", select "Hardware related pages", click next, select "Plain Text", click "Finish". Then when it is done processing, click "Save To File". Save it where you want to. (I would use Desktop.)
    Click "Go Advanced" in the MG reply box, scroll down a little way until you see "Manage Attachments", click it, browse to your file, click "Upload", and close the window. Then submit the post. You may have to also type something in the reply box, like, "Here's my report.", so that it will submit.

    Video driver: http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/socket775/P5L-MX/VGA_32bit.rar
    SMBus/Chipset driver: http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/misc/utils/Intel_INF_V8301013_2kxpvista.zip
    Audio driver: http://dlsvr.asus.com/pub/ASUS/misc/audio/Audio_ADI_V5100X41XX_v610016050.zip
    Ethernet driver: http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/lan/Attansic/Lan_Attansic_L1_v1737907_v10560011159.zip
    You may need the UAA HD Microsoft Audio Driver installed before you install the sound drivers (also known as KB888111). Always install chipset drivers FIRST! Then install the rest. Anyway- try these and let us know how it goes!
    Good luck!

    I forgot to add: the video driver is a .RAR file which is similar to a .ZIP file but cannot be unzipped with the built-in Windows 'unzipper' file extractor utility. You need to use TUGzip or maybe 7zip. Both are 100% freeware.


    :celebrate This is post number 4000 for me!!! Yippee!!! Whoooo!!!

    (yeah... big whoop. ;) )

    :highfive Glad I could help! :dancer

    As to the remaining unknown device, try using Unknown Devices. If it doesn't supply any details, it will at least provide a VEN number (a vendor number) which can be Googled to find out what the device is. I posted a 'sort of' how-to for Unknown Devices in this thread.
