Hello all,
Just finished building a new system with an ASUS P8Z77-V LE mobo. I installed what I thought was the most recent chipset (http://usa.asus.com/Motherboards/Intel_Socket_1155/P8Z77V_LE/#download):
DESCRIPTION: Management Engine Interface V8.1.0.1263 for Windows XP 32bit & Vista 32bit & Win7 32bit & Win8 32bit---(WHQL) [includes Management Engine Interface V8.1.0.1263 for Windows XP 64bit & Vista 64bit & Win7 64bit & Win8 64bit---(WHQL)].
FILE SIZE: 56,28 (MBytes) 2012.09.05 update
After installing it, the SM Bus Controller in the Device Mgr is showing an ! mark - driver not installed.
Well, after double-checking the ASUS website again, I see that it might not have been the chipset I downloaded but some additional software (Management Engine Interface), which I discovered having seen "Intel Chipset" listed as the fourth and last downloadable item in the list. What caused me to miss this the first time is the date is the oldest, hence, one would think, not what I wanted. What caught my eye this time, however, was the version: it's newer than the Managment Engine Interface file. Great!
So, my quesiton is this, should I go ahead and install the "Intel Chipset" and hope this clears up the SM Bus Controller issue, or will this conflict, perhaps, with the Management Engine Interface?
Thanks,
Starkman
