    Hi agian!

    I did a clean install of WinXP ME2005. Now I try to find all drivers again.
    So far found all but the "SM bus controller" ? there is still a yellow questionmark in the "Device manager" for that device. So:

    which driver should I use?

    And what is a "SM bus controller" anyways ;)

    Thanks!


    John
