Which driver am I missing?

Black Panther · Nov 14, 2009, 02:55 PM

The motherboard's P5KPL-AM SE.

I got all the drivers from the Asus website (disk didn't work on Win7), and I installed them all.

However in the Device Manager I have an "Unknown Device" on Intel (R) 82801GB/GR (ICH7 Family) LPC Interface Controller 27B8.

Edit: I'm googling to find it elsewhere. Can't understand why it isn't on the Asus site though...

missing chipset software

Black Panther · Nov 14, 2009, 03:25 PM

I downloaded this, but when I tried to install it it said that my version of the driver is newer.

How come since the Device Manager says there's no driver installed at all?

Black Panther · Nov 14, 2009, 03:50 PM

I'm sure that's not it.

Checked Device Manager again and under System Devices there are all 82801 of the chipset, including the Intel (R) 82801GB/GR (ICH7 Family) LPC Interface Controller 27B8.

What I'm getting is an 'unknown device' just below 'network' and above 'ports' ie "Unknown Device" on Intel (R) 82801GB/GR (ICH7 Family) LPC Interface Controller 27B8.

Here, this shows it better:

Anyone knows which device is that?

Thanks.

Install PCProbe

Bo$$ · Nov 14, 2009, 04:35 PM

might be a USB device plugged in

Kreij · Nov 14, 2009, 04:45 PM

Sorry for being too terse in my last post. It appears that if you install PCProbe, it will install the driver for the device in question. I did not mean to install it for troubleshooting.

I am not sure what the driver is, and it appears that you do not really need it for anything, but the consensus on the interwbez is that installing PCProbe will make the little yellow exclaimation point go away.

Black Panther · Nov 14, 2009, 05:08 PM

Thanks Kreij, it's the only thing I haven't done so far, mainly because I'm still downloading it from the Asus website... been downloading for a couple of hours (not kidding), they're awfully slow!
955 bytes/sec!

Try it from a different location, I remember having to choose a World Wide connection cause the USA connection would just stall out.

Black Panther · Nov 14, 2009, 05:58 PM

Thanks again Kreij, Probe did the trick - I dunno exactly what it did but it worked!

SMBUS or some kind of senser perhaps?
