I got that on my XPS 420 on first try of Windows 7 x64. I went to Intel website and downloaded what looks like more or less an All-in-One chipset driver package and installed and that Device Manager error went away. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Dell: XPS 420, XPS 420, XPS M1330, XPS M1330, Mini 9, Mini 10v OS Windows 7 RTM (TechNet), XP Pro x64, Vista x64, Ubuntu CPU Q6600, Q6700, T7500, T7500, N270, N270 Motherboard Dell Memory 4GB, 8GB, 4GB, 4GB, 2GB, 2GB Graphics Card ATI, nVidia, nVidia, nVidia, Intel, Intel Monitor(s) Displays Dell 2408WFP Keyboard Logitech Wave Hard Drives A drawer full.

Driver Download Location I also have the XPS420 (intel chipset) and had the same error. I got the driver package and it took a couple of installs and reboots for it to stick. As a convenience, you can download that package here: http://uswave.net/windows7/intel-smbus-drivers.zip
Just extract the files into the folder of your choice, then goto the device manager and update the driver. You have to tell it to manually locate the driver, just put in the drive/folder name where you unzipped the file. Like I mentioned, it took a couple of installs/reboots for the driver to "stick" to the smbus.
I hope this helps (tip my scales  ) | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Dell XPS 420 OS Windows 7 RC CPU Intel Q6600 Quad Core Motherboard Dell Proprietary Memory 4 GB DDR 800 Graphics Card Nvidia 8800GT Sound Card Integrated - Sigmatel HD Audio Monitor(s) Displays Dual Dell 22" Wide Screen Screen Resolution 3360x1050 Keyboard Dell USB Mouse Wireless MS mouse PSU Big Enough Case Dell XPS 420 Cooling Air Hard Drives 320 GB internal
