What is SMbus? What do I miss if the OS (Windows 7) does not detect it?

This weekend I tried the public beta of Windows 7 and all hardware in my PC is detected except the ICH10 SMBus controller of my P45 Neo 3 FR mainboard.
What does the SMBus do? What functionality do I miss if the OS does not detect it? (or rather: detects it, but offers no drivers)
Would it be safe to use the brand new "all OS" Intel Inf (9.1.0.1028 WHQL) drivers in Windows 7?

You could DL the INF Update Utility from intel....once downloaded and extracted you will see a folder in it called "all"
http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&ProductID=816&DwnldID=16026&strOSs=163&OSFullName=Windows Vista*&lang=eng
Goto control panel>device manager than click on SM bus controller properties...update driver manually and point it to the folder called "all"
It will go thro the folder an find your proper driver 
this thread should probally be moved to the W7 section

    Recently i updated my os on my iphone 4s , after update my Wi-fi button is grey and cannot be used , i called apple suport explaining them the problem .

  • I have a iphone 5 and I can login with my apple id to purchase music. However, when I try to login into icloud using the very same username and password that I use in the apple store it does not work to enter icloud, so what what gives???

    I could do that, however when I select the icloud button (or whatever the heck it is) I am asked to enter the apple id and password. So if you are suppose to create another one for icloud you'd think it would give you the option at this point which would be logical.

    I have found a fix after doing additional research through this forum. Tech Note #328730 addresses this problem and it works for Photoshop Album 3.2 even though it was written for release 1.0.
    Here is a link that will take you directly to the Tech Note:
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=328730
    When using this fix the Tech Note indicates:
    "Imported image data and tags are lost when you re-create the My Catalog.psa file, so you need to reimport images and reapply any tags"
    however it did retain the captions (at least it did for me).

    Hi Brian,
    Thanks restoring and restarting didn't fix my problem - i have started it fresh and still it doesn't work. Basically I press ONCE on the remote, after the machine has not had any commands for 10 minutes, and the cursor skips from one end of the menu to the other - so I can't choose network or update software etc - I sometimes manage to stop it randomly in the middle of the menu if I press on a command in the middle of the cursor skipping all the menu steps...not sure what the problem is but I have basically not used my brand new apple tv since I bought it for that reason! I should call Apple support I suppose! grrrr hate wasting time with stuff like this!
    Thanks for your help though!

    I have another apple ID but I forgot the password and apple does not send the link to reset it to my email. What do I do to have it back? It is really important.

    If you know the answers to your security question for the ID you can use that method to reset the password rather than email (by going to https://iforgot.apple.com/password/verify/appleid).
    If you don't, you'll have to contact iTunes Store support for assistance: http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html.  They frequently deal with Apple ID issues.

    While trying to setup a time capsule backup to my MyBookLive external drive, I got the following error message: The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features. What's up with this?

    This means that your NAS does not support the required encryption. Update your NAS to the latest firmware or ditch it and buy a Time Capsule (they are the most reliable when using TM).

    what should i do if my external hard drive is not detected by my mac?
    need to have the files saved on it and be able to backup via time machine

    Hi:
    Here are some of the options I've read about on here that may or may not work:
    1. Reset the NVRAM as it may need to be reset to recognize the drive. See below:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379
    2. If the drive is a USB drive, put a USB hub between the drive and the unit. As ridiculous as that may sound in some cases it works.
    3. If you have some types of hardware problems and want to test them this works:
    http://scsc-online.com/Scannerz.html
    That's a test tool only. It isn't going to fix anything just diagnose a bunch of possible hardware problems and it costs money, too.
    What format is the drive in? Is it a Mac native format like HFS or is it some other format, like NTFS or FAT?

  • What is "Assisted GPS" on the iPad and how does it work?

    What is "Assisted GPS" on the iPad and how does it work?

    I purchased the iPad mini Wi-Fi & Cell because it has GPS. OK, it is assisted GPS but the GPS works very well as stand alone. I got the iPad mini for use in flight, so I dont even have a sim card in it. The GPS works perfectly in flight under all conditions. I have cross checked it against typical approved aircraft installations and it is very accurate at all times. I use it in Wi-Fi mode on the ground when updating my aviation database, when planning a flight, or similar circumstances. The primary advantage of A-GPS is quick location reading when first turned on, when on the ground where the GPS satellites signal may be of reduced quality. At 10,000 feet plus, it is a stand alone GPS. I have frequently turned the iPad off in flight for periods of time and when powering up, it gave me accurate positioning in a few seconds, never exceeded 10 seconds. I have also tested my iPad on the ground, using the aviation maps, and the GPS works perfectly also.
    It remains possible that there is some feature that enhances the GPS when on the ground, even if there is no sim card in the iPad. But I doubt that any of these would work in an aircraft at high altutide. Nonetheless, I would appreciate knowing more about this.
