Hello! I have pretty much all the drivers installed, but when I looked at device manager, I saw that one thing is missing: The SM Bus Controller. I'm not really sure if that's the AMD chipset, but I would like help, to resolve this.

Here are the drivers you need:

 

SMBus controller:

 

Download, unzip and manually install the smbus controller driver I attached under Attachments below.

 

Go to the device manager and click on the smbus controller needing drivers.  Click on the driver tab.  Click on Update Driver.

 

Select the Browse my computer for driver software option and browse to the driver folder that you unzipped.

 

Make sure the Include Subfolders box is checked and the driver should install.  Then reboot.

Thank you so much for your help with this.  The driver link worked perfectly what a relief to find the correct answer.  HP should offer this on the units driver download page, do not understand why they do not.
