Intel Bus Controller Driver Windows 7

[Florene Pothoven]

Mypci memory controller driver and SM bus controller driver is not found. I went to PCI lookup and found that the drivers are as the picture seen below but I can not find it anywhere. Can someone help me find the PCI memory controller please!

Ok so I extracted right, I go to device manager and the errors are gone now? I can't find the pci stuff anywhere. The only thing I did was install intel chipset software installer. was that a bad move?

If that does not work, So the Intel support engineers can have more information about your system, Download, run, and save the results of this utility as a text file:

-System-Support-Utility

Then ATTACH the text file using the instructions under the reply window ( Drag and drop here or browse files to attach ).

So, I had to install a new Power Supply for my PC a couple days ago because my PC wouldn't start. After I had life again and thought all was good, I immediately noticed I was unable to connect to my wired internet.

I went to device manager and noticed my ethernet device wasn't even listed under network adapters but now under other devices as "ethernet controller". When I clicked on it, I was met with the following device status: -The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28) -There are no compatible drivers for this device. -To find a driver for this device, click Update Driver.

I tried troubleshooting multiple times through windows but when I followed their steps and restarted my PC, still nothing changed. Then, I went to Intel forums, videos, and websites supporting my issue and went through various guided steps to try and solve this.

After installing the latest version of Intel Ethernet Adapter Complete Driver Pack and many hoops and bounds later, I went back into device manager and noticed my ethernet device was now showing under network adapters as "Intel(R) Ethernet Controller (2) I225-V".

In device manager, I attempted to automatically install the driver through windows and it would not work being unable to find a compatible driver. I also tried manually installing it and choosing a driver and was still unsuccessful.

After enabling/disabling my ethernet device, trying the steps over and over again, trying to install an older version of the driver, updating my BIOS, made sure my ethernet cables were stable and good, and going down tons of rabbit holes, I end up where I started with the same device statuses.

2. I don't know what caused my last power supply unit to fail. I was able to power on and operate my PC the night before like any typical night, but the next day it wouldn't power on at all after trying a different power cord, outlet, etc.

When I go into device manager and attempt updating the driver with the file I extracted from the Intel Ethernet Adapter Complete Driver Pack zip file I downloaded, I am met with this screen (image applies to both searching automatically for drivers, and browsing my PC files for driver.

I also made the discovery that when I click on "Let me pick from a list of available drivers on my computer", and choose any of the listed Intel driver devices to try and install, I am met with the same (Code 10) this device cannot start. Additionally, now my device name of "ethernet controller" moves from the other devices tab to under the network adapter tab and matches the name of the driver device tried installing prior as you can see in this image:

So I went to your link and downloaded and extracted the zip file of "Intel Network Drivers" version 26.2.0.1 under the subcategory "LAN Drivers". I auto ran the app and attempted to install it was met with this screen:

Since you are using MSI product, with embedded NIC, contact MSI support for further assistance. They may be able to provide additional troubleshooting steps or even replace the motherboard if it is found to be defective.

Please be informed that we will now close this request since we haven't received any response from our previous follow up. Just feel free to post a new question if you may have any other inquiry in the future as this thread will no longer be monitored.

1. I have attached pictures of the box in came in. Would you like me to remove the card so you have pictures of that too? I have one photograph of it inside it's plastic sleeve I took before I installed it, attached also.

2. Apologies, I am not the most computer literate, are you asking whether or not it is known to be compatible with my machine? If you are, the answer is no, I am not 100% as on the website (Amazon link below) I purchased it from it did say windows 10, not windows 11 which I am currently running on the machine. Also, I have found generally very little information on AMD machine and working PCIE cards... for some context on use purposes I have installed this card so I can connect to a work NAS, the reason we need such speeds is that we frequently access RAW video files from the NAS.

Thank you so much for the update and all the information that you provided. However, upon checking the pictures, there is no photo focusing on the markings on the network card. Kindly take a photo on both sides of the card. Kindly check the link below for the markings that we are looking for:

Appreciate the photos that you sent. Upon reviewing the photos, the markings on the card does not follow Intel markings similar to the link that I provided. And also, there is no YottaMark* and BradyID* Sticker on the card. Please check the link below on the details about YottaMark* and BradyID* Sticker.

Since there is no markings for us to validate, this card may be an OEM unit. The best way to identify is to contact your reseller to verify the OEM manufacturer. Then try to contact them if the card supports Windows 11 and if they have driver for it.

@Chris_Clockwise Please do yourself a favor and NOT use 3rd party driver sites. You never know what information from your machine they are uploading (and to what country it is going), and you never know what payload is in the packages they are downloading.

This is a typical intimidation tactic. Yes, the card is old; but it is working fine and I want to continue to use it. If you are not going to provide a decent driver, somebody else will. There are lot's of homelab or truenas server users out there (one of them is me). Our main PCs (which are mainly Windows) need another 10gbit card to take advantage of the speed of the server's 10G network card. We don't need anything fancy, anything new. Most of us does not have 10Gbit switches or etc. We simply directly connect two or three PCs together and use 10gbit speeds. X540 was a cheap and decent solution for this(as long as if you can cool it down and ok with it's electricity consumption).

I won't buy anything new for my homelab. I will continue to use my x540, with third party drivers. Since we have enough population, we can sort it out which driver is risky which is not in time.

By the way, I was going to buy two more of 10gbit x540s. Probably I will buy a knockoff from China because of this situation. I simply don't support this kind of business.

I do appreciate the sage warning, it is the only thing that has worked up to this point though so I am hesitant to stop using it. My enterprise-level antivirus software didn't pick-up anything when I scanned them before installing the driver. But I do hear you, this is a far from ideal situation, I just needed a fix to get back to work. Until I can see an official driver that works I am going to continue to use it out of necessity.

Thank you so much for the update. We have to agree that we don't recommend using drivers from 3rd party website. At this point, we recommend that you try to look for the OEM manufacturer for the correct support. However, it is up to you if you want to keep using the driver, as long as we have informed you that it is very risky.

However, the fact that you are from Intel, and have not been able to provide a driver to one of your products, and instead you have just told me not what to do, whilst deflecting ownership of the problem (the problem being the lack of driver support) by putting it back on the re-seller, your message has somewhat ruffled my feathers.

And also, we just released a driver pack for Windows 11. This is just a generic driver and for retail Intel network cards only, however you can still try and check if this driver will work. If not, best support is the OEM manufacturer.

We tried to check this issue further, however we want to apologize again and the reason we are referring you to contact your OEM because they are still the best source of support. Unfortunately, our support is limited since this is an Original Equipment Manufacturer(OEM) Ethernet controller. We understand that this is an Intel controller that is embedded with the adapter but it still be best to get in touch with OEM since they have customized drivers and software to enable or alter features on your system. They are in best position where you can seek assistance so you do not lose features or customizations of the Ethernet controller.
