as a standard rule, whenever i'm looking for drivers, the first place i check is the acer download site....my model btw is "aspire notebook 4741" and the chipset driver i have installed now is "Intel(R) HM55 Express Chipset LPC Interface Controller v9.1.1.1022".

i have already downloaded the chipset driver....which i believe is v9.1.1.1025 on their site....on more than four occasions. the last being as recent as two weeks ago.

the problem with that chipset download is, after downloading and extracting it, you do not see any .exe file to start the install. i went to the acer forum and there were a couple of posts about this same issue with somebody from acer....i presume....suggesting to get intouch with acer support....i don't know if you've ever tried doing that.

anyway i went inside device manager and pointed the chipset driver update to the folder containing the downloaded driver and the msg i got was that i already have the best driver installed.

i went to the intel site and used their automated utility to find and update intel drivers on the system and the result for that was the chipset driver i have is "valid". whatever that is supposed to mean. so this is why i'm here looking for help.

the next thing i'll like to find out is, will updating the chipset driver install drivers for all these missing drivers? are they all bundled into the chipset driver? because i surely can't identify those drivers on the acer site.

Hi sandpd, Just downloaded the file and I see a "setup.exe" file there this will install all the missing parts of the chipset

 

[VistaKing]

Click on rb: Type in devmgmt.msc inside the Search programs and files box. Press enter once devmgmt.msc comes up below Programs(1) . One Device Manager window opens up Right click on each missing driver choose Properties . On the Properties window click on the Details tab on the drop down menu click on Hardware IDs and take a prntscrn of that of each missing driver please.

Example of what I need ( image below )

i just installed the chipset but unfortunately, the situation is still the same. all the drivers listed as
showing up in device manager under the "general tab" with no drivers installed are still in the same situation. mind you, the 'driver tab' shows they all have microsoft drivers installed.

this is how i went about the installation:

1) in device manager, i uninstalled the driver for the chipset....Intel(R) HM55 Express Chipset LPC Interface Controller-3B09....that was installed.

2) restarted the system and then installed your driver by clicking on the setup file in the extracted package. restarted the system again.

your driver package is actually v.9.1.1.1025 but on checking in device manager, the driver version installed for the HM55 Chipset is v9.1.1.1022 and like i said, the others are still showing-no drivers installed under the "general tab."

i just saw your new driver, i'm gonna try that and let you know. btw thanks a great deal for sticking with me.

Hopefully post #12 driver will work for you

 

[sandpd]

just tried your driver for the "SMBus Conroller" and this is what came up:

"this computer does not meet the minimum requirements for installing this software"

keeping my fingers crossed.

vistaking this new one for the "smbus controller" worked i think.

here is what happened. i had a microsoft driver installed so i didn't bother to uninstall it. just went straight ahead with the manual installation of this new driver. restarted the system and went inside device manager to check for the update.

to my surprise, the "general tab" still read "no drivers installed" and the "driver tab" still had microsoft as the driver provider.

so i decided to do the update again from within device manager by pointing the update to this new driver package and that seems to have worked.

under the smbus controller "driver tab" now, i'm seing intel as the provider and the driver version is V1.0.0.2 is that sounding correct? the downloaded file says V9.2.0.1021
but under the "general tab" i'm still seing-no drivers installed for this device. does it matter?

Can you upload a PrntScrn of the Device Manager ?
