Hi:

 

For the SMBus controller, you need this driver...

 

This package contains the Intel Chipset Installation Utility. This utility enables the operating system to show the correct name for the installed Intel hardware in the Microsoft Windows Device Manager. This package is provided for supported models running a supported operating system.

For the other two devices you need this driver...

 

This package provides the Intel(R) Management Engine Components Driver for supported desktop models that are running a supported operating system.
