    in Device manager I have an error at Other Devices, it is SM Bus Driver Code 28. It has a yellow question Mark on it. How do I find out which device I need to install a driver for. It has none installed now. Would it be perhaps because I installed a SATA drive and did not change how to check a drive automatically on the IDE drive that I had installed previously?

    Hi Dakota

    Could you ID your motherboard and supply relevant information?

    To identify your motherboard please download CPU-Z and save it to your Desktop. Unzip and run cpuz.exe.

    Select the Mainboard tab and post the details that are in the Manufacturer and Model fields.

    You can highlight (or right-click on the listing) and select Uninstall. It doesn't work now :). If you're lucky it will reinstall correctly when you reboot. It is a system driver and apparently it worked before(?), it might "pop back in ". If not, I'm sure wildfire should be able to help you (and if that's by finding updates for your drivers, it would be good for you to find out where they can be found).
