Need Ethernet Controller etc.

mccoady · 25 Mar 2013

I had to reinstall Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit on a computer I had built for me a year ago and was surprised that I couldn't get on the internet. In my Device Manager I am missing:
Ethernet Controller
HP Scanjet
PCI Simple Communications Controller
SM Bus Controller
2 - Universal Serial Bus (USB) Controllers

I assume I need the Ethernet Controller to get on the internet but I don't know where to find it I have a AsRock Z68 Extreme3 Gen3 Motherboard... could someone give me a hand? Thanks!

Thanks VistaKing the Ethernet Controller driver got me up and going on the internet! The PCI Controller & the USB Controller drivers didn't work but I can use SlimDrivers to find them now that I'm on the net.

Sorry it took me so long to get back the only driver I still need is for the Universal Serial Bus (USB) Controller.

The USB driver I listed in my prior post is the one that is listed for your board on the Asrock website

VistaKing when I installed the file you provided it installs it with no problem but when I go to the Device Manager there is still a yellow exclamation in front of Universal Serial Bus (BUS) Controller. If I right-click on Properties under General tab it says "The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)"

I ran Microsoft Fix it and it pointed me to Windows 7 built-in Troubleshooting and it came up with the screen below... what's strange is I never had this problem before I did a Clean Install of Windows 7.

Any more ideas this is a little over my head?

Try to Uninstall the USB Controller and restart your computer and try having Windows Reinstall ?

I just tried it and it says like before it can't find the driver what exactly is the Universal Serial Bus (BUS) Controller and what does it control?

Does it have anything to do with my Dvd drives because they were working fine this morning before I re-installed my printer and scanner but now they don't seem to detect when I put in a disc in or it takes forever?

I found a disc that came with my computer that has some drivers on it but which one is the one I need?

The USB Controller , controls your USB external devices .

Looking at the image you're showing is the driver I sent you

Asmedia USB 3.0 Driver

also try INF DRIVER
